playing opposite to Corbin Bleu, omg what a queen Amber is


Corbin btw also took part in the american version DWTS, he was runner up in series 17 behind Glee's Amber Riley

[jones89]

She was great on DOI so i have no doubt she’ll kill it on the dancefloor too

yes, and Nikita is so lucky with his second west end superstar now, after Layton



and even more joy for me, no camera hogger Danny Dyer this series!!!!!! :cheer2: :dance:

[Livia]

She danced like a professional. And we all know why. Boring.

[joeysteele]

I do like her and she was really good on last night's show.
She will be one of my favourites this series I'm sure.

[Nicky91]

samba to bam bam by camila cabello and ed sheeran!


YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS gonna be amazing :dance:

[Nicky91]

i call her the princess of west end


because there is only one royalty at west end tbh, ''The King of West End'' John Barrowman


but Amber comes close to being as flamboyant of a performer as him :flutter: i wonder though what he'll think of Amber competing on strictly this year, a fellow west end star, and Barrowman is a strictly fan

[Livia]

It was like watching an experienced professional. BECAUSE SHE IS AN EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONAL!

[Nicky91]

she isn't JEEZ


she only is trained in musical theatre, not latin or ballroom



wanna moan, then follow the american version, where alec baldwin's wife Hilaria is competing, whom literally took part at blackpool ballroom championships





and to be honest, i thought she was gonna come across too theatrical because of her extensive west end experience, but glad she isn't too theatrical here, that samba felt enough performative but also enough natural for my liking


and please chill this week :idc: it also was her birthday last night, and btw seeing her boyfriend cheer so wild for her next to her sister, he must be the luckiest guy on the world to be the boyfriend of such a superstar performer :love:

The performance was beautiful to watch.:flutter:

Well yes, no one would expect to pay to watch someone in the West End who can't dance. She has all the confidence of a professional, she was picking out the cameras to smile into while she was dancing... She's a good dancer but I want to watch someone who improves week by week. This was week 2.

We're never going to agree on this, I know that.

I like the mix tbh.

Contestants like Amber and Lewis help get the Show off the ground, whilst the Show is waiting to see who gets better out of the novices in the competition.

For example I think that George made a big stride with his last performance, but I might be being biased tbf as I love the Paso.:laugh:

…I’m not generally a Strictly watcher so much but I know that there is often discussions/conflict-ions/controversy etc over any celebrities who have a more substantial dance experience background…I’m interested in what you say in terms of liking the mix because …(…I would imagine…)…that having those more experienced dancers helps to give an aspiration for others to improve week on week and that’s no bad thing either in competition…but obviously if the more experienced dance background celebrities do that…/…help raise the goal bar…?…I guess it’s then, ahhhhhhh but should they win over one of the ‘most improved’….tricky, isn’t it…

I agree with your assessment on it helping inspire the other contestants to aim to improve each week.

And you're also right that is a tricky debate on who should win out of the ringers or the novices.

Personally I just go with who I just naturally like the best, Strictly is probably the one Show where I don't try to overthink it too much.:laugh:

Ooo yeah I love the paso too. It's up there with the Argentine Tango.

I think the fact that every year they put in people who are dance trained, and I know they're not ballroom dance trained (except Angela bloody Ripon) but they do have the basics and the public try to vote them off, they go into the dance off and the judges save them right up to the end. But the public don't want them to win, so they don't. It's typical BBC for me, the majority of the public speaks, the BBC sticks its fingers in its ears.

Just my take... I like the fear in notices faces and the joy when it starts to come together, not a confident pro dancer doing the wink-and-the-gun at the camera as they dance past.

I will stop banging on about it now, thanks for listening lol....

George's Paso lacked spanish lines



honestly Amber is the first one i'm as hyped for like i was for Pixie Lott, and she does have a good point regarding defending herself against the haters, that she like everyone else has to learn latin and ballroom as a beginner to these styles, and honestly those with west end experience tend to come across theatrical, but i'm thankful Amber isn't anywhere as ''robotic'' like Danny John-Jules was or Karim Zeroual, she also has more natural movement than Layton, also much more likeable than Layton, that was a good VT for her this week, showing the little town in Wales where she grew up, lovely how many in that town know her so well :D
