WENN
"Dancing With the Stars" finalist Kelly Monaco has been offered thousands of dollars to divulge the truth behind the rumored romance between her and partner Val Chmerkovskiy. Out of the 13 couples from the "All-Stars" season, it was clear from the beginning that the "General Hospital" star and her ballroom pro had the steamiest chemistry of them all.

And despite co-host Brooke Burke-Charvet's best efforts to have them reveal any details about their relationship on the final shows, Monaco is still not letting up about her connection with the Ukranian stud. She tells E! News, "I hope people will shut up and stop asking about my personal life. I just got offered $50,000 to tell a story of what this is!" Monaco slammed down the idea of taking the money but is willing to share her excitement about their success on the show, despite placing third. She shares, "No, there is nothing to be disappointed about with this 'All-Star' season. It was anyone's win. We were all winners. (Winner) Melissa (Rycroft) didn't have one of those stupid mirror balls, and Val is young enough. He has enough seasons left in him. I think Tony (Dovolani) deserved it, he's been here probably one of the longest."

Chmerkovskiy also wants to celebrate their personal victory, revealing that the two plan on reveling with a "perpetual cycle of champagne bottles," and Monaco echoes the same thoughts about celebrating, adding, "I can't wait to be so hungover that I have to be in bed for three days."

Don't worry Kelly and Val you'll were the real winners. Didnt need no fake smiles or crying about how val didn't have a trophy, or tumble tricks and stunts. It's called Dancing with the Stars not tumbling with the stars or crying with the stars. Kelly and Val worked hard and danced their butts off. They deserved it. Shawn didn't even look happy in the finals guess she knew the one they had picked from the start was gonna win. Well I don't care what anyone says Kelly and Val are real and when you looked at them each week it was a true commitment to dancing and each other. That's the only thing that kept me tuned in each week. The judges suck and play favoritism. I think Paula Abdul should replace Carrie - Ann. I think the top three should have been Kelly and Val, Sabrina and Louie, and Giles and Peta!! Well it's over Kelly and Val go enjoy each other!! Kelly you got a nice guy who respects you and has your back. Hope you'll get together!
Seriously? First of all, EVERYONE on the show jokes about how cheap looking the mirrorball trophies are. If you've ever bothered actually watch one of her interviews or read something about her before you made your ridiculous knee-jerk snap judgements, you would know how much the competition meant to her. But no, go ahead and make your assumptions - you know what that makes you....
