FAKEDANCER Fred Bowers — exposed by The Sun for claiming disability benefit while dancing on Britain’s Got Talent — has offered to PAY BACK the cash like MPs.
Fred, 73, insisted he still deserves his weekly £70.35 Disability Living Allowance and £49.10 Motability cash for a car. This is on top of his state pension.
A Department of Work and Pensions probe is underway.

And Fred last night said if the investigation did uncover wrongdoing, he would reimburse the state. Fred, of Sutton Bonington, Notts, even claimed dancing had helped his leg get better.

He is set to perform his acrobatic spins and amazing rolls in Thursday’s ITV1 semi-final.

He said: “Dancing improved my leg, I didn’t know it was going to cure it. When I first claimed I could hardly walk.

“This could have ruined my chances of winning Britain’s Got Talent.

“To be honest, I want shot of my Motability allowance and I don’t care if they stop my Disability Allowance.

“I think I know who reported me, they are just envious.”

Good, £70 a week is a ****ing atrocity. My mum gets less and she can't even get out of bed some days, nevermind walk, and never-****ing-mind DANCING and CLUBBING.

He makes me sick to my stomach.

See thats what I love about BGT, you get the people who just want to be on telly cos they do nothing else and they are scramming of the government but they forget that with their fame, they get looked into. Idiots. Bet he regrets all that now.

I thought he was really quite flexiable for his age.

He's from Notts, of couse he's involved in some sort of scandal!
i think he should pay it back, he's not entitled to Disablity allowance so cleary shouldn't claim for it.
i do like his moves though
