The Hidden Mic Moment Takes Strictly Come Dancing by Storm
Strictly Come Dancing, the world’s most-watched ballroom dancing show, is stepping up its game with a first-ever hidden mic moment. During last weekend’s thrilling Instant Dance Challenge, one star, Amber Davies, sent shockwaves through social media platforms with her hilarious and commanding demand to her partner Nikita Kuzmin.
Alex Kingston’s Departure and the Instant Dance Challenge
The heat is intensifying on Strictly as Alex Kingston was eliminated from the competition following a fierce dance-off against Balvinder Sopal. The judges chose to rescue Sopal, leaving Kingston at the foot of the leaderboard with a score of 23.
However, her luck changed when she secured an additional three points in the Instant Dance Challenge. This challenge was a new addition to Strictly’s history; each pairing selected a dance style randomly from their previous repertoire and discovered the song they would perform to within just ten seconds before choreographing their routine.
The Hidden Mic Moment: Amber Davies Takes Center Stage
In this unprecedented moment, Amber Davies, known for her vivacious performances on the show, issued a bold command during the Samba performance of “Whenever, Wherever” by Shakira. She demanded that her partner Nikita Kuzmin get down on his knees, shouting “Get on your knees!” The video clip quickly went viral among fans and garnered numerous comments.
Amber’s quip was not lost on viewers who were quick to respond with admiration and humor. One fan commented, “QUEEN behaviour and we are HERE FOR IT.” Another added, “Nikita – ma’am, yes ma’am!” The moment’s popularity is evident from the numerous reactions it received.
Amber Davies’ Rise to the Top
The hidden mic moment not only entertained but also significantly boosted Amber and Nikita’s scores. For their Instant Dance performance, Amber was awarded an extra four points, which were added to her regular routine score of 39, pushing her to the top of the leaderboard with a total of 44.
Amber’s commanding presence on the show is celebrated by fans who describe her as “fantastic” and “living her best life.” This moment adds another layer of drama to an already intense competition as the remaining contestants prepare for Musicals Week, which will determine their places in next week’s semi-finals.
Upcoming Performances and the Quarter Final
This Saturday night sees the remaining contestants vying for a spot in the quarter-final. Lewis Cope is set to perform a Salsa with Katya Kozhamkulova, while Amber and Nikita will take on the Charleston. George and Alexis will dance an Argentine Tango, and Balvinder and Julian will perform a Viennese Waltz. Meanwhile, Karen and Carlos will samba to “The Rhythm of Life” from Sweet Charity.
