Strictly Come Dancing fans think they have spotted the problem that saw Vicky Pattison’s place on the leaderboard dramatically change this week.
The reality TV star and presenter was back in the ballroom on Saturday night (November 15) as the BBC One dance continued into week eight.
Vicky and her professional dance partner Kai Widdrington were among the remaining eight couples in the competition who performed with the hope of making it through to next weekend’s Blackpool spectacular.
The former Geordie Shore star, who wore a bright yellow dress, and dancer Kai performed a jive to Sound Of The Underground by Girls Aloud.
Judge Motsi Mabuse noticed the TV star had made “tiny little mistakes in the beginning”, and added: “But I actually, I love the way you recovered from that, because I could see you really trying hard, the whole dance.”
They ended up receiving a score of 27 out of a possible 40 points from the judges, which left them tied at the bottom of the leaderboard alongside EastEnders actress Balvinder Sopal and dancer Julian Caillon.
Vicky and Kai performed a Jive
But after she topped the leaderboard last weekend with a near-perfect score, some Strictly fans think they spotted the reason for Vicky’s dramatic change in the standings following her latest performance.
@MichelleMurph82 said: “Well I prefer the girls aloud version of the song obviously but it didn’t go well with a jive! #Strictly thought Vicky was out of sync with Kai but she put all her energy into it, not an easy dance!” @SusanBunch17 wrote: “Who on gods earth thought that song worked as a jive song? Vicky did a good job though #Strictly.”
@jemmaharris111 commented: “This song choice with the dance choice for Vicky is.. interesting. And by interesting, I mean doesn’t work #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing.” @TVMusings22 shared: “Not Vicky’s best, it started with the song.”
@RebeccaHindle_C added: “Not sure about this love this song by girls aloud it doesn’t work for jive felt a bit flat I don’t know was lacking something. Vicky gave it a great go though and she’s a non dancing #StrictlyComeDancing #Strictly.”
