Sailor Brinkley Cook Season 28
Paired with Val Chmerkovskiy
Follow Sailor on Instagram Follow Val on Twitter
Sailor Brinkley-Cook is an American model/filmmaker and photographer. A gorgeous head-turner of a face and body, she has managed to achieve success at a young age. Having legendary supermodel Christie Brinkley as her mother definitely helped her, but it was her talent and dedication which paved the way for her to become a rising star in the fashion world.
Sailor grew up in Bridgehampton, New York, and began modeling at age 15. She took the industry by storm as she was featured in Teen Vogue, an overwhelming achievement for her, soon after she was signed with IMG Models. Perhaps most notably, Sailor appeared alongside her mother, Christie Brinkley, and sister, singer/songwriter Alexa Ray Joel, in the 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. In 2018, Sports Illustrated named the budding model one of its Rookies for its Swimsuit Edition and contributed as a photographer's assistant. Recently, she walked the runway alongside her mother for Elie Tahari and appeared with her siblings on the cover of Hamptons magazine for their celebrated Labor Day issue. Additional editorial credits for Sailor include the covers of Avenue, Daily Front Row and Bella as well as fashion stories in Seventeen, Town & Country, Beach Magazine, New York Post and a Marie Claire special issue with Fabricio Ferri.
Sailor was included in People's Most Beautiful issue for the second time, appearing alongside her mother, Christie; sister, Alexa, and brother, Jack. Sailor also made her runway debut in Milan walking for Dolce&Gabbana during spring 2018. Earlier this year, Sailor took a break from her studies and relocated to Australia to continue modeling opportunities. Outside of fashion, she aspires to contribute to National Geographic as a photojournalist.
Val Chmerkovskiy
Ballroom legend and choreographer Valentin Chmerkovskiy joined the cast of professional dancers on Dancing with the Stars in 2011. Having accomplished all he could in the world of competitive dance, the 14-time US National Champion and two-time World Dance Champion quickly rose to stardom, becoming one of the show's fan-favorites for impeccable performances that showcased not only immense talent and creativity, but an undeniable charisma to match. Valentin is also the first—and only—American to ever win the IDSF World Championship.
Since his TV debut, the Ukrainian-born dance champion continues to steal the hearts of fans—both on and off the dance floor. Val has expanded upon his talents as a dancer, choreographer and instructor to create an empire that inspires others through the art of dance. Valentin co-founded Dance With Me Studios, one of the nation's leading Latin and Ballroom dance studios, where he also lends his expertise as the venue's Art Director. The success of the first studio ignited a passion for teaching his craft, leading him to develop Dance With Me Juniors, a program he designed to keep kids healthy, focused and active. Val is also a classically trained Violinist, having performed in Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center as a concertmaster of the ISO Youth Orchestra.
Philanthropy is also important to Valentin who supports numerous children's and educational charities including Children's Hospital; and as an ambassador for Pencil's of Promise, Val has helped build two schools in Ghana. Born in Odessa, Ukraine Valentin emigrated to New York at eight years old and grew up in Brooklyn. He is fluent in Russian and English.
Val toured the country with the phenomenally successful Dancing with the Stars: Live!...a 40-city national tour, before returning to television for Season 21 of Dancing with the Stars. Val won the Mirrorball trophy in Season 23 with Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez.

How does one fake a broken arm? A sprain maybe, but not an actual brake. Think woman, think before you speak. Thank goodness Christie has a daughter (upcoming beauty) that could fill in for her.

Why would Williams even say that? I don't know her at all, but it was a horrible thing to say. Sailor has her moms good looks, lucky girl.

WW is truly awful. You'd think with all the negative press she has been getting lately she would think before she speaks.

OMG WW is evil. While I really don't know her and never watch her show but I actually jumped on her wagon when her life was EXPLODING. I mean it was all over the news, you could not help reading about her cheating husband and his horrid controlling ways. NOW THIS crap from WW. What did CB ever do to WW? Wayyyyyyy off base and all wrong.

Sadly, even after all that, Wendy issued a non-apology to Christie that went something like this: "I'm sorry if you were hurt by what I said, but my opinion stands." Why would anyone choose to double-down on a stupid statement like that? I guess any attention is good attention from Wendy's perspective.

That may be what she's thinking but, IMO, Wendy just seems more stupid and petty for doubling down on it. I thought it was a stupid thing to say before Christie shared her pictures, but to double down on it now makes me wonder if Wendy is cracked in the head.

I've now read a few stories hinting that the plan was always to bring Sailor on in Christie's stead at some point (Don't know how that would have happened - CB would bow out due to exhaustion? No clue ), BUT those stories also say that the broken arm was definitely not part of the plan and is absolutely real. How could you even fake those pictures? Sure you can show an x-ray of anyone's broken arm, but the pics of her actual arm show that she was clearly injured. I've always thought WW was low class and she just continues to prove me right. It also makes the rumors about her substance abuse seem more credible.
