Ex-Pro Blasts Dani Dyer's Stiff Moves on Strictly
31 Oct
Summary
- Former Strictly pro Vincent Simone critiqued Dani Dyer's stiff legs and feet.
- Simone suggested Dyer needs to improve body stretching and elasticity.
- He also praised Lacey Turner and Vito Coppola's remarkable partnership.
Vincent Simone, a former professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, has shared his critical assessment of contestant Dani Dyer's performance on the show. Simone observed that Dyer's legs and feet appear stiff, and he believes she needs to increase her efforts to improve her technique.
Specifically, Simone advised Dyer to concentrate on body stretching and incorporate more elasticity into her movements. He made these comments following Dyer and her professional partner Nikita Kuzmin's recent Salsa performance, which earned them 31 out of 40 points, their highest score to date.
In contrast, Simone expressed strong admiration for another pair, Lacey Turner and Vito Coppola. He described Coppola's teaching approach as fantastic and praised Turner's consistent, amazing performances, likening their dynamic to a 'tornado.' Simone also felt that both Shaun Wright-Phillips and Alexis Warr were "undermarked" in their recent performance, noting Shaun's significant improvement from a shy and stiff initial appearance.
During last weekend's show, judge Anton Du Beke also made a humorous remark to Dyer, apologizing to her husband, Jarrod Bowen, who was in the audience. The remaining couples are set to participate in a Halloween special tonight.
