Hold up, a new Dancing With The Stars couple might just be twirling into the spotlight, and I’m here for it!
Since Season 33 kicked off, fans have been buzzing that Brooks Nader and her dance partner, Gleb Savchenko, are vibing with more than just their cha-chas.
People picked up on the flirty energy real quick, and now everyone’s shipping them as a thing, both on and off the dance floor.
But, wait—it gets juicier. During Week 2’s Oscars Night, Brooks and Gleb didn’t just bring the moves; they brought the heat, sharing a kiss in their intro package, theygossip.com reports.
Then, things really escalated when TikTok user @ashleysdiary7 caught them backstage, sneaking in a little hand-holding and a peck.
Cue the comment section freak-out, but let’s be real—I’ve been freaking out since Day 1. All those TikToks? Yup, we totally saw this coming!
Thank you, TikTok, for being the ultimate source of truth because that’s exactly how we’re about to confirm these two are a thing!
Let’s break it down by analyzing their most obvious videos where trust me, the eyes don’t lie—and neither does their body language.
Shoutout to high school for that random kinesics lesson that’s now coming in clutch. I’m basically a body language expert now, and these two? Yeah, they’re definitely giving off major couple vibes.
A Kiss Backstage
Okay, so this TikTok wasn’t even posted by them but shoutout to the person who shared it because we’ve gotta talk about it.
Look, sometimes performers share kisses for the drama and magic of the stage—it’s all about emotions, creativity, and making the performance pop. No biggie, right?
But here’s the tea: no one rehearses how to kiss off stage, so when Brooks and Gleb were spotted sneaking in a real-life peck backstage? Yeah, that hit different.
It wasn’t a full-on makeout sesh or anything, just a sweet little kiss while holding each other close. But sometimes, it’s those subtle moments that say everything.
The Hand on The Hip Placment
Okay, so I’ve done a deep dive into their TikToks, and let me tell you—Gleb definitely has a thing for Brooks’ hips. And no, I’m not talking about their ballroom moves.
I’m talking about those casual, fun, off-the-dance-floor moments where he’s placing his hand on her hip.
Now, here’s the deal: besides the fact that hips are one of the softest and smoothest parts of a woman’s body (duh!) when a guy grabs a woman’s hips, it’s often a sign of affection.
It’s his way of showing attraction and creating a sense of closeness. And honestly? Gleb’s body language speaks volumes here. Looks like it’s more than just choreography between these two…
Almost Exposed Their Showmance
They really posted that almost-kiss moment for everyone to see? Like, if this isn’t the most sus thing ever, IDK what is!!
So, here’s the breakdown: the video shows Brooks and Gleb casually walking together, lip-syncing to a sound, all cute and flirty.
But the kicker? Gleb gets real close and whispers something in her ear, and right when Brooks turns around, Gleb does too. Boom—almost kiss. It’s like they’re teasing us with this “will-they-won’t-they” vibe, and honestly, we’re all here for it. This vid? Totally giving couple energy!
Their Chemistry
Every single TikTok they’ve dropped together is like a sneak peek into their insane chemistry.
Sure, dancers need that spark to nail their routines, but Gleb and Brooks? Their vibes hit different. It’s not just “dance chemistry”—it’s like there’s something more simmering underneath.
Every time they’re dancing, it feels so intimate, like you’re watching something way deeper unfold.
Then when they take it to the stage, it’s pure magic. You can’t help but think, “How do they make it look so real?” I’m calling it—they’ve gotta have a secret relationship, right?!
The Internet’s Reactions
Since these videos dropped, fans have been buzzing non-stop. People are feeling this duo, and it seems like the whole internet is rooting for this potential couple.
But not everyone’s shipping them—some fans are calling out the obvious “showmance” vibes.
Even fellow contestants Rylee Arnold and Ezra Sosa couldn’t resist poking fun during their Oscars Night quickstep.
They playfully made hearts and kissy faces behind the pair while Brooks and Gleb were getting their score, fueling the speculation.
So, are Nader and Savchenko actually dating? The TikToker who caught their sneaky backstage kiss is convinced they’re “def hooking up,” but the two set the record straight.

Nader explained that they’re just having fun and keeping it chill, while Savchenko chimed in that when you rehearse for hours, you create a certain chemistry.
He added that when they dance together, that chemistry is definitely there, but they’re just getting into character.
Nader didn’t hold back on the feels either, admitting that they’re fond of each other.
For now, it seems like they’re just keeping things in the friends/dance partners zone, but we’re all waiting to see if this showmance turns into something more!
