Strictly head judge Shirley Ballas hits back at fans who repeatedly claim the BBC show is fixed after Sam Quek and Nikita Kuzmin’s elimination sparked more public outrage
As a long-time viewer of Strictly Come Dancing, I must say that this season has been nothing short of captivating! The performances have been impressive, and I find myself constantly amazed by the chemistry between celebrities and their professional partners.
In response to the upset fans, Shirley Ballas, from Strictly Come Dancing, defended the elimination of Sam Quek and Nikita Kuzmin, who were voted off during the competition on Sunday.
The head judge, 64, snapped as she confessed she thought it was ‘childish’ to blame the judges for the outcome.
Over the weekend, Shirley faced criticism from fans of the BBC show, who thought Sam had been unfairly judged. They felt that Sam deserved a higher score as they perceived weaker dancers receiving higher marks compared to him.
However, she’s countered by pointing out that viewers’ votes play a crucial role in determining who competes in the dance-off each Sunday night.
The judge said: ‘The show’s been on over 20 years. The public vote makes a difference.’
‘You the public can vote to save your favourites. It gets childish to blame the judges.’
Responding to allegations of biased markdowns towards female celebrities, Shirley stated, “I don’t have a cruel or unkind nature.
During the past weekend’s episode, Sam and Nikita received a score of 29 for their American Smooth dance routine. This placed them at the lowest position on the competition leaderboard.
Later, they faced a surprising dance-off against Montell Douglas and Johannes Radebe following a public vote. Unfortunately, they were eliminated based on the decision of the judges.
But the scoring of the couple left fans outraged as they claimed they were unfairly scored.
Speaking about the platform once called Twitter, one wrote: “With Wynne and Pete so close by, what’s going on at the bottom two?!
‘If we don’t see Wynne or Pete in the dance off next week i am gunna kick off.’
‘I need Pete to be the dance off next week. We’re losing decent dancers and he’s just not there.’
‘#strictly pete shayne and wynne were the weakest!’
“Pete ought to have left for home this past week; his performance was awful. Indeed, reading that spoiler has left me quite upset. The other dancing duo should not have even been close to the elimination round.
It wasn’t right for Sam not to attend; Pete should have gone instead. Pete’s fairness was questionable throughout the entire series, and it’s clear that Shirley needs to be let go. She’s tainted the show by favoring certain individuals. Len, on the other hand, always did what was fair.
Sam and Montel shouldn’t have been left out of the dance-off. Some average dancers ought to have taken their places instead, making it quite unfair. However, I thoroughly enjoyed watching them both advance in the competition.
On Sunday, Sam and Nikita danced the American Smooth routine to Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” once more, while Montell and Johannes showcased their Waltz performance set to Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You.
As a lifestyle expert, I’m here to share the latest updates. In our recent voting round, Montell and Johannes garnered three favorable votes each. This means they secured the majority, which, unfortunately, signifies that Sam and Nikita will be stepping out of the competition this time around.
Head Judge Shirley Ballas also agreed and said she would have decided to save Montell and Johannes.
When Tess inquired about her experience on the show, Sam responded, “I’m really disappointed, but all I can do is express my gratitude.
“I’ve absorbed a tremendous amount of knowledge, and Strictly has truly rekindled my enthusiasm. It’s been an utter pleasure.
Dear Nikita, you’ve been instrumental in unearthing the hidden ‘Sam’ within me, who had taken a brief hiatus for about a year or two and is now reemerging. It’s disappointing as I believe there’s still more of myself that I can share with others.
Nikita expressed his admiration by saying: “This girl leaves me speechless. While some people claim that the experience (journey) matters more than the result (destination), I personally believe that it’s all about who you share the journey with.
‘Sam you are the most wonderful company I could have had.’
Sam remarked, “I can’t help but wonder how celebrities and their dancing partners maintain such relationships.
“In essence, the time you share together and how you influence one another truly creates something special – almost like a magic spell.
Audience members got to enjoy a showcase by the latest K-Pop boyband, dearALICE, along with an impressive collection of songs made popular by Beyoncé.
In the dance performance, Johannes transformed himself into a bold version of Beyoncé’s Sasha Fierce persona, taking center stage with a dazzling act featuring adorned cowboy hats, dynamic power ballad moves, and an iridescent display of attitude.
Strictly fans were left in shock after the results were again leaked online in a huge spoiler.
In an unexpected twist, I found myself revisiting my performance twice after landing in the bottom two. The audience seemed taken aback by the results, but I was ready to give it another go.
During the latest television series, some individuals have often complained about a persistent leak on Sundays, which is believed to be caused by a well-known informant.
On Twitter, they expressed their frustration by saying, ‘I’m genuinely irritated. Neither of the dancing pairs in the competition should have been there last night, as they’ve consistently gotten better each week. Meanwhile, some other pairs who’ve had multiple subpar performances are still moving forward.’
‘WHAT?! I’M FLOORED!! This has fully p***ed me off actually.’,
Oh my goodness! I can hardly believe it! How on earth did both couples end up in the dance-off? And to make matters worse, why are the ones who were clearly not as good still in the competition? This is beyond surprising!
In an unexpected turn of events, I find myself questioning the sequence of events at the dance-off. It appears that those two pairs should not have been participating from the get-go.
