What’s REALLY going on between ‘Dancing with the Stars’ professional Maksim and partner Erin Andrews? He told us they were ‘maybe’ together before — but check out what he told us THIS time we asked him!

Maksim Chmerkovskiy told us on March 17 that he was “maybe” dating his Dancing With the Stars partner Erin Andrews. However, when we chatted with the dancing star again last night, March 31, he definitely had a new song — and dance — for us.

“Are Erin and I romantically involved? No,” the 30-year-old dancer told HollywoodLife.com exclusively at The Clash of the Titans LA premiere Wednesday night. “But do I see a gorgeous girl standing in front of me? Absolutely!”

Maksim, we’re not buying it! You and Erin, an ESPN reporter whose fame exploded (sadly) after illegally-shot photos of her changing in a hotel room spread all over the Internet, seem to be all over each other ALL THE TIME and she even said she loves the way you smell!

And if we’re not believing, neither is Maksim’s pal and fellow DWTS dancer Derek Hough, who thinks something is brewing! “Oh my gosh, [Maksim and Erin are so together that they] already have babies, they’ll have a house in Italy together, they have their own private boats!” the 24-year-old joked to us, adding, “I’m just kidding. Kind of.”

Yeah, we know something’s up — so just come clean, Maksim! You and Erin have totally danced your way into each other’s hearts!
