Evgeny Vinokurov is missing from “Let’s Dance’ for the second time. The dance professional did not make this decision himself.

“It was a production decision that certainly has substantive reasons for it and which I don’t doubt,” he said. Evgeny and Cheyenne Ochsenknecht (23) were thrown out in 13th place in the second episode. Christian Polanc (45) and Christina Hänni (34) are also out this year because all three professional dancers are pregnant.
