Dancing With The Stars Maksim Chmerkovskiy quitting the show after season 15. According to Hollywood Life, Dancing with The Stars veteran dancing pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy is ready to call quits for good after this new all-star,season 15 comes to a close.

Maksim announced the news to the New York Post with the following statement, “what else do I have to do there after 15 seasons? It makes total sense. The audience can’t expect for me to want to stick around, and the producers can’t expect for me to want to stick around.” Wow! Ok.

He went on to explain, “I loved doing it. But to be honest with you, at 32, I am at what-about-me time. I am not thinking that with me leaving, the show will go off the air or anything. Like my dad said, ‘There are no irreplaceable people.’ I wish them the next 50 years of success. But I have to do something else. I need to move on for me.”

It’s also reported that Maks has plans to pursue an acting career and possibly a reality show with his brother Val after the current DWTS season wraps up. Stay tuned. Follow us on Facebook by Clicking Here. Follow us on Twitter by Clicking Here.
