A software engineer but really a musician and a writer.
The Big Picture Ukrainian-American choreographer and Dancing With the Stars pro Val Chmerkovskiy is disappointed about his and wife Jenna Johnson’s recent Emmy loss. The reality couple was nominated for the Outstanding Choreography for Variety or Reality Programming award for one of their performances during DWTS Season 32. The nominated dance was a tribute to the show’s former judge Len Goodman who died in April 2023 after battling prostrate cancer.
Johnson also shared photos from the night on Instagram and shared that she had dreamt of this moment for a long time. “I cried in the car on our way to the shoe because I couldn’t believe that little Jenna’s dream of being a professional dancer in LA one day led her to this,” added the DTWS star. Chmerkovskiy and Johnson’s nominated dance was a waltz to “Moon River” and featured performances by current and former pros including Kym Johnson, Karina Smirnoff, Tony Dovolani, and Mark Ballas.
She hopes that pairing with Chmerkovskiy, who is fresh off his last season win with partner Xochitl Gomez, will help her achieve this goal. The partners recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter and updated the fans on how their rehearsals have been going ahead of the show’s premiere. Parks shared that their rehearsals are intense and go on for at least four hours. However, Chmerkovskiy was quick to chime in with praises of Parks’s dancing abilities.
