Gossip & Rumors
Rep Denies Steamy "Dancing" Affair

Cheryl Burke's rep is denying that her client was involved in an affair with her then "Dancing With the Stars" co-star Drew Lachey. In a statement to TMZ, she claims, "The story that Cheryl is involved with Drew Lachey started 2 years ago when they were partners on Dancing with the Stars, it wasn't true then and it isn't true now."

Rumors of an alleged affair began when married dad Drew Lachey was partnered with Burke during the second season of "DWTS." Star is reporting some salacious details about how the alleged affair was found out by Cheryl's then-boyfriend Matthew Lawrence, kid brother of Joey Lawrence. The two were pretty much caught red-handed - or rather red-mouthed. Whoa!




According to Star, "sources say Matthew found his girlfriend cheating when he went to retrieve something from her dressing room." Lawrence ran out screaming after catching the two engaged in oral sex. Holy fox trot!

Once they were found out, says the mag, Drew threatened the Lawrence brothers to keep them from going public with the affair.

And we thought all the drama went down on the dance floor.

UPDATE: Star mag tells us "We have spent eight weeks investigating the Drew & Cheryl story, and we would never have run it if there was any doubt about its veracity. We had planned to run it last month, but after strong denials from Drew's and Cheryl's reps we went back and revisited all our sources and in the process found new ones who confirmed the story. We are satisfied that Drew and Cherly did indeed have an affair."

7. I think she was the giver... he needed it b/c his wife was 7+ months pregnant.
I always thought they had extra chemistry.

8. As far as I am concerned, the only talent the Lachey brothers have is in the libido department. Drew certainly didn't deserve to win DWTS. Look at Nick and the pics that have made the rounds with him and Vanessa Manillo! Drew comes across like he thinks he is a hood so it is no surprise that he threatened the Lawrence brothers. The Lachey boys both need to disappear!!!!

9. Interesting since Cheryl didn't meet Matthew Lawrence till his brother Joey was on the show. Drew was on in season 2 and Joey in season 3 you do the math. People love to print hateful things about celebrities. If it's not true they just make it up.

12. Yeah right, I guess next they will say that Penn is hooking up with his dance partner, Marlee Matlin is hooking up with hers and Adam Corolla plans to hook up with Julianna. Those rags are so full of it, this is why they get sued so much. Stick to something that is real.

13. It is interesting and questionable. Questionable: One would normally get upset & confront what is being observed opposed to running out screaming (& Drew would have the right to be angry? when actually Dude should've gotten his butt kicked). Interesting: This supposedly happened when they were touring so it doesn't sound like it happened during the normal DWTS weekly series so no math is needed here.

14. What is the rep suppose to say, "yes it is true"?!? Thats why he/she is a rep.....................to put a little spin on things.

15. Just because you have chemistry with someone on the dance floor, doesn't mean you're having sex with them, oral or otherwise.

I just don't see Cheryl being involved with a married man, and I hope Drew wouldn't do that either.
