Default Giovanni Pernice 'Quits' Strictly Come Dancing




[Giovanni Pernice 'QUITS' Strictly:
Pro is 'adamant' he has done 'nothing wrong'
but scrutiny has become 'too much'
after former partners Amanda Abbington,
Laura Whitmore and Ranvir Singh
slammed his 'militant' approach]

[While the BBC has stood by him
and been keen to sign the professional
dancer for its 20th anniversary series,
Giovanni has decided to not return after
eight years on the show.]



Nice Watch.

I think it's crazy how anybody who is strict gets deemed a "bully" nowadays.

Until someone tells me that he has done anything that's seriously crossed the line, then I will defend Giovanni on these claims, it just seems like everyone is out to chase their own possibilities of victimhood at this point.

Such a shame, those women should be ashamed, he is a professional and wants the best, if they didn't want to put in the work they shouldn't have taken up the offer

He's not a bully, he's just very strict kind of teacher.

Not sure about the strictness but he's definitely a womaniser.

Mm, I'm not sure about what is going on. The BBC weren't going to investigate, now they are evidence gathering. I think his position was now untenable on the show - he would be scrutinised (rightly or wrongly)whatever he did. I am not passing judgement on whether he was a bully or not, as I don't think we will ever really know for sure what went on in the rehearsals when cameras weren't rolling.

He won't be the first coach to be accused of bullying behaviour to get the best out of their trainees.

What a shame. He is one of the most successful professionals, having won the show and coming in second place 4 times in his 8 years of participation. Former partners Rose Ayling-Ellis and Debbie McGee sing his praises. They say he does push his partners to get the best out of them but he is a absolute gentleman.

Wasn't Brendan pushed to quit aswell ?, due to his mouthy attitude .


And James was fired ? , he used to be so arrogant . I remember him being a bit of a bully when he first started.

But as for Giovanni maybe he's just a perfectionist .

Yes. Giovanni isn't like that at all.

How does being "abrasive" equal being a bully?

None of these people are making an actual case against the guy, they're just using sound bites to try and get the Social Media crowd on board.

As I've said previously, we need actual evidence.

Exactly Mock, and given some of his other partners have sung his praises you have to wonder if it was just a clash of personalities, and ego trips?


I am not his biggest fan as he is up himself a bit but he certainly pulled out some routines on Strictly and that was his job to get the best out of his partners

'flees abroad' the state of the reporting, you would think he was on the run after he committed some heinous crime

I don't think the ladies involved will come out of this looking too well, and it could be career ending for them

Nice Lady with him.
