Strictly in fix row as show legend reveals bosses ‘have a way of getting rid of stars’ – and tried it with Pete Wicks ngocc

STRICTLY has found itself in a new fix row as a show legend revealed bosses “have a way of getting rid of stars.”

The star in question revealed they’ve even tried it with Pete Wicks.

Vanessa Feltz jumped onto her YouTube channel and revealed what bosses can do as a way to ‘get rid of stars’ on Strictly, as she shared a video titled ‘Strictly: They can set the whole show up to throw you out and that’s what happened.”

TV star Vanessa took part in the eleventh series of the hit BBC competition in 2013 and was partnered with James Jordan.

In her video, she candidly said: “Bosses can use music which is loud and clanging and clashing and horrible, or a really obscure song that nobody knows and nobody likes, or a bit of really sort of weird classical music that everyone hates.

“They can absolutely kibosh you by choosing unpleasant, unpopular music that nobody likes.”

And that’s not all, as TV personality Vanessa said they can use costumes to ‘get rid of you’ too.

She continued: “They can give you a really ugly, unflattering costume. Now, would they say, ‘Here you are. Here's an ugly costume,’ of course they wouldn't.

“What they say is, we're doing something comical. We're giving you an amusing, hilarious, you know, entertaining pantomimist kind of costume.

“And then you have to come out looking like an absolute dog's dinner.

“So if they do a combination of a film about your rehearsal week that is somehow unflattering and shows you in a rather unappetising light, a horrible track that you've got to dance to that nobody likes, including you and a really ludicrous and unflattering costume, then they really are setting the whole show up to throw you out.”

And Vanessa thinks it’s been happening to Towie star Pete Wicks, who is currently on the show.

“In my view, that's what happened to Pete Wicks,” Vanessa said.

She went on: “They're at Blackpool. They totally deserve to be there. They danced beautifully the week before, but what do they do?

“They give them the song ‘I’m Too Sexy’, for God's sake, which is, you know, something you might like to dance to when you're entirely drunk at the wedding, but not really any other time.

“And they put poor Pete Wicks in pink PVC, skin tight, ugly looking trousers and a totally stupid costume.”

Pete, 36, and his professional partner Jowita Przystal danced the Cha Cha in Blackpool to I’m Too Sexy, and his pink PVC trousers got viewers talking.

Vanessa added: “They make him look like some kind of extra lumbering in in a panto.

“Not only that, they choose the song I'm Too Sexy, because everybody knows that he's a Don Juan. He's got lots of women.

“All of them are crazy about him, So it totally takes the focus off him as a dancer and basically takes the p*** out of him as a person.

“It's not fair, I don't think, because if you wanted to enjoy his dance, you can't. He looks stupid.

“The music's silly and all the whole kind of focus is I'm too sexy.”

Vanessa ended by saying: “You're meant to think of him as a sort of sexed up reality TV star rather than someone who's dancing really very well indeed.

“And I thought that was an example of what James Jordan told me they do on Strictly when they've had enough of you.

“The best thing about it though was that their plot was foiled because the audience very wisely voted to keep Pete and Jowita in, not to get rid of them.

“So Ha ha! That was absolutely sweet revenge.”
