Controversy Strikes
Another Strictly favoritism row has emerged as fans claim judges are overscoring one of the stars "to protect him." This revelation comes after Saturday night marked the fifth week of the BBC dance competition.
The Performance
Wynne Evans and Katya Jones danced the quickstep to Electric Light Orchestra’s Mr. Blue Sky. Judges Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse, Shirley Ballas, and Anton Du Beke were highly impressed with the performance, with Shirley expressing that they "absolutely loved" it, and Anton describing it as "a lovely show." The judges awarded them a total of 33 points, placing them fifth on the leaderboard for the weekend.
Fans React
However, Strictly viewers have voiced their concerns, suggesting that the high scores were a result of favoritism and protection for Wynne after a recent scandal involving a "grope" joke between him and his partner Katya. Fans took to platforms like Reddit to express their frustration, with one stating, "There’s no way he deserved 9s when Sarah got 8s," and another calling the scoring "odd and deliberate."
Controversial Scandal
The controversy surrounding Wynne intensified last week when Katya was seen rolling her eyes at him and having to deflect his wandering hands during a high-five snub. Following online backlash, the pair uploaded an apology video, attributing the incident to an "inside joke gone wrong."
Apology and Backlash
Despite the apology, fans continue to question the judges' motives in overscoring Wynne. The GoCompare singer, who was seen heading to the BBC studios solo for their Saturday performance, expressed feeling "heartbroken" over the backlash.
