4 days ago

Former Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole has cast doubt over Shayne Wards ability to impress the judges as hes not sure he can dance ballroom The 48 year olds comment came just one day ahead of the first live show of the 20th anniversary series Shayne is part of a high profile list of celebrities including eighties pop icon Toyah Wilcox JLS star JB Gill and Olympian Sam Quek Speaking to Sky Vegas Brendan said Shayne Ward is a lovely fella very likable so Id imagine if he can dance people will love him Im just not sure hell be able to dance I know he can move but Im not sure he can do the stuff that they do on Strictly but time will tell Last year the Strictly judges came under fire for handing out high scores to the contestants early into the competition Addressing those claims and hoping for a change during this years series the professional dancer added If they the judges dont start with low scores this time I think itll be a shame for the show because as we saw last year when they start high and theres nowhere to go it doesnt really make it exciting He added Id be very surprised if production hasnt sort of come to them and said Listen we cant start that hype guys but every year is slightly different from the last The thing with judges like anybody on a reality TV show they want to make their mark on it IN 2004 Natasha Kaplinsky and Brendan became headline news after it was alleged that they had been involved in an affair after they were partnered together on the BBC show At the time Brendan was dating Camilla Dallerup who was also a professional dancer But she dumped him three weeks into that particular series over the allegations In 2015 the dancer who was engaged to Brendan said To this day I have no idea whether it was her fame and celebrity that swept him away or if he really did feel a strong connection with her Im guessing it was probably a bit of both What was really hurtful was not just that Brendan appeared to have forgotten he was engaged the entire nation seem to have forgotten he was engaged Now years on from the pairing that created the phrase the Strictly curse Brendan said Romance happens in every series Theres always someone who falls for somebody whether its two contestants two pros or pro and contestant that fall in love Thirty people are all working of close proximity to each other Youre bound to find two people that find each other attractive As weve seen from the last 22 years only three couples have got married and the rest fizzled out with a big bang Follow Mirror Celebs on TikTok Snapchat Instagram Twitter Facebook YouTube and Threads
