Strictly Thread 5: Minions versus The Matrix

[TheSassyAssassin]

Thread 4 almost done....

I was just coming on to say the same @CoolCarrie! The celebs and the pros too, now that the show has been running so long, live a lot of their lives in public but more so when the show is actually running.

Prior to Strictly I had no idea that Seann and Rebecca were a couple and wouldn't have been able to comment on their personal life in the slightest. Being part of such a huge show though and already being part of the celeb circle, they know the score. They know they are fair game. They know the media are watching and waiting. So what they have done so publicly does have a bearing. I don't care about their personal lives per se, but they have behaved despicably in full public view and not in the spirit of what essentially is a light-hearted dancing show, but one that is watched by millions, so for that reason I hope they are in the bottom two and I hope they are voted off.

By all means have a showmance/fauxmance but not if it involves dragging others who don't deserve it, through the media mill. It's Strictly. It's NOT Naked Attraction!

Good riddance Rebecca and what a gorgeous cat.
Don't care about Katia but Sean is disgusting and what a gaslighter.

They could dance to Des'Ree's Kissing You on Saturday?

Too soon?

What an idiot. His professional life will likely not recover, and I can't imagine he'll have much luck with the ladies. What the betting that he'll be checking into rehab/therapy at some point soon?

I always wondered about Oti and Danny, those two were an absolute amazing partnership and that gorgeous American smooth where she threw herself off the pier and landed on him, I could watch it again and again. I love Oti and she is always super supportive of her partners, i don't think anything went on between them but when you watch them I do feel she was a little bit in love with Danny. I noticed recently that she had deleted a load of her instagram pics of them together at the time off her feed.

God Sean sounds awful. It's odd when someone in the public eye has their persona shattered. When the real vs fake personalities come tete a tete it's always a wake up call noone knows who celebs really are.

She'd been married for 4 years to Marius Lepure by then. Oddly, although they were fantastic technically I didn't see raw chemistry between Danny and Oti like I did Jay and Aliona. But there's always the Joey rule.

Kissing you was done already and Me and Mrs Jones was last year but..Let's face the music and dance was last done 2015!

Yeah I didn't see oti and danny together.

I had a dream last night katya and ed balls had a passionate affair. I was katya..
Seriously though I actually thought they had chemistry last year.

@mogloveseggs Well, your guy brought it this week! 30/30

I thought I was going to hate it in a minipops stylee but have just watched all the DWTS juniors routines on youtube and it was surprisingly good. The child pros are ridiclously talented but the child stars are giving it a damned good go.

Seems like I'm 12 hours too late. That'll teach me to post without scrolling back

Unfortunately lots of shitbag men get to carry on with their careers completely untarnished. I hope that’s not the case here.

I think the behaviour of Seannnnnn Walsh is disgusting and controlling and I'm firmly on the side of Rebecca; I loved her statement.

I'm going to be unpopular for saying this though. I think Seannnnn and Katya make a lovely couple. The video clearly shows that there is a connection and a lot of lust. Will it last? Who knows.

These things happen. The way it happened is deeply unpleasant though, of that there is no doubt.

Agree "placemats* - they could probably make a lovely couple.

I imagine Katya is very ambitious and will fight to stay in the show. That high pitched scream she does I find very irritating. Imagine she would scream and scream to not be booted off.

Katya annoys me, I was beginning to really like Sean(n)

In a way I agree with the above posters-I think they make a good couple and you cannot help who you fall for,though agreed about the circumstances being horrible.

I’m interested to see what this does to (a) the voting and (b) the judging.

From past observations, the judges are not above letting their personal feelings cloud their judgment so I reckon we’ll see some inconsistencies in the scores.

I wonder if the producers warn Bruno to rein in the comments? He’s likely to go off piste a bit (though I’m undecided if he would go on about their chemistry or chastise them).

@mozziemagnet whoop whoop ds is thrilled! He’s so good!
I thought lee should have stayed based on the dance off.
As for seann & katya i think it’s disgraceful.

Omg she has 20k followers now! Wowwee

I'm about 5 pages behind

Kind of wishing S+K had withdrawn from the competition on Monday as it's turned into a complete media circus.

Has the latest Monkseal been linked?

I think Katya should be sacked by the BBC. her actions are deeply unprofessional and she is bringing the show (evenmore) into disrepute. Seann should have the decency to quit, but he wont because we know is an arse.

I can't read anymore about Sean(n) and katya it just making me cringe i did have a thought thoug maybe katya is just playing him like a fiddle to get the best out of him that is why Neil posted THAT picture and Katya said it had no reflection on his marraige and it had just got way out of hand, i wish he would just bow out before Saturday or i might die of the cringe watching them

No reflection on her marraige*

@Goingonandonandon But they didn't sack Kristina, Flavia, Pasha, Giovanni, Brendan.....
