KA if you look at postings today look at Artem Chigvintsev Fans seems to be there. I wonder if he wrote it. Confused!!!

He wrote the message.

thanks, it's hidden amidst lots of posts!!

yep, found it...

Jeepers, poor Artem! I wouldn't blame him for a second if he hot footed back to LA and stayed there in the spring.

I hope he never reads some of the messages on that page. Unbelievable the way in which people think they have a right to know what goes on in his personal life and to be so nasty about Natalie's appearance.

It's disgusting isn't it!!!

The tabs are fishing for a story. You can see that by the DM describing Kara's dress as "loose-fitting" (in whose bliddy universe is that dress loose fitting????). As a fan of K&A I'm ashamed that Artem felt compelled to post something on FB, his relationship is his business and no-one else's.

OT (sort of) a very close friend of mine is related to a very famous footballer and her family were hounded by the press for years. Through credit reports they found the weakest link in the family and then incessantly dangled financial carrots of increasing size until they got the story they wanted. (I won't go into the daily stalking and 20-odd phone calls a day).! It caused irrepairable damage to the family and to this day they no longer have any contact with the "story-teller". The red tops are scum and they take advantage of people's misfortune just for a couple of columns on Pg 9 or whatever.

Rant over.

Do you think artem contacted whoever runs the fan site to post on his behalf? I'm very pleased one of them has said something (purely for my own interest selfishly) but equally sad they've been forced to say something in response to some really nasty comments.

Where are people's respect these days?

I hope K&A read this page more and appreciate our comments and chat. They need to know we support them both....shame we can't send a big card to them or something!

Have written this one on a post-it note and stuck it to the puter-screen because it's absolutely new to me aaaand because it's oh so adequate

Got it in one Noonster.
Looking forward to some great competition tonight, particularly Nartem and the A team. The others don't do it for me.
Off to Paris early Sunday afternoon to catch the Euro star. My first time so a bit nervous about getting from one station to the other. In England until Thursday, so will be back in time to watch the final. Fingers crossed that my two favourites are still there.

Two great words there Nooney! This type of stuff is one of the many reasons I don't buy newspapers!

Noonster (love the change of name by Clartem!) you've hit the nail on the head - normal service has been resumed! I was amazed at how many newspapers/media outlets simply regurgitated the same article, blatantly word for word! Neither imaginative nor creative ... must have a been a slow news day!

Done a mammoth catch up ... had a few distractions this week Nativity, Carol Concert, Trip to Panto - it really is enough to put you off Christmas, herding coach loads of kids about! Anyway, off to the works-do this afternoon so the real festivities can begin! I am perfectly timed to be back for the start of Strictly - that's either pure dedication or pure stupidity!

Clartem - Eurostar is fab-u-lous! You'll love it! Have a safe trip!

Glad I can occasionally provide new wordy nuggets of joy.


Clartster, off to gay Paris. Not jellus at all. Word of advise turn right not left *sagely nods head* and you wont go wrong. <- another load of balderdash and piffle


Exactly bliddy lazy b*st*rds

Have a great do KD…let's hope for a stellar Strictly too.

Hi, Clartem! *waves across the Channel* Eurostar is fab. Everyone who knows me outside the forum will know that I have a real problem distinguishing left from right, purely because I was taught by a Frenchwoman (true story) so you will not be surprised to learn that I got lost at the Gare du Nord. In my defence, however, it wasn't gauche et à droite that confused me, but not realising that there was an upstairs and downstairs at the station...

What lovely news! Made my weekend. Need to vote for Natalie and Artem tonight everyone.

Two AMAZING dances tonight.
Reminds me of the semi-final three years ago.
FInger not crossed as I'm typing (and phoning a lot).

Kara has tweeted to vote for natalie and artem so come on you need to vote.

Thanks for all the Eurostar encouragement. Hopefully I will turn right and go up or down appropriately

Strange...kara has taken her tweet asking people to vote off her feed...

It was never there for me, I have twitter open all the time and never saw it at all ...very strange

She probably took it down because the lines closed so people wouldn't vote when the lines closed.

Hello All

Not posted for over 18 months now, but as I am one of the people running Artem Fans Twitter, Facebook Fan Page, I see some people are reluctant to come on and enjoy what is posted?

Please do not feel that you will be attacked on the page it is only a few people that start things and they are being monitored closely with a view to blocking them (which I don't like to do to be honest)

But I don't wan't people getting upset, same as Artem's message stated - no need for all the fighting...


I am amazed of the back lash that We have experienced on Twitter and Facebook saying that Artem didn't post the message!!

I think most of you that are aware of me, know that Artem is on both and is a Big Russian Lurker but will post when it's needed (he's a tad busy with some Dance Show apparently)

He likes to read what people write warts and all, but as people were getting upset by the Press Stories he wanted to make it plain to everyone - Open debate is allowed but having had a face to face conversation with him recently he was 'Angry' about the Twitter bullying aimed at Natalie.
He knows that most of the people he meets on a regular basis are on the Artem Fan FB or Twitter so as they're special to him he wanted to post the message.


But for any new people I just wanted to say that it is a friendly place as is the Twitter

So please come on Like or Follow and say hi (but only if you want to)

Moonbaby, you're a star xxx

Thanks Moonbaby. I always look on the site. It is only a few people being negative. The negativity towards Natalie has to a certain extent ruined this series of Strictly for me this year. I don't understand how people can behave this way. Anyway I have loved Artem and Natalie's dancing this year and Artem's choreography has been amazing.
