Three past Strictly contestants ‘meet to discuss difficult time’ with pro dancer

Three past Strictly contestants ‘meet to discuss difficult time’ with pro dancer

Published by Sam

Strictly Come Dancing pro Giovanni Pernice has addressed the controversy surrounding Amanda Abbington, who unexpectedly quit the show in 2023. While the Sherlock star originally cited “medical reasons”, she went on to request what was described by a source as “tense” footage of her rehearsals with Pernice for a supposed investigation. The actor then revealed she was “diagnosed with mild PTSD after Strictly for several reasons”. Now, Pernice has shared his thoughts on the subject – and his musings arrive at the same time as a fresh report claims the Italian dancer was the source of complaints by two other former celebrity partners during their time on the show. It’s being alleged that Good Morning Britain host Ranvir Singh and former Love Island presenter Laura Whitmore, who previously said she was “uncomfortable” with Pernice, had a “tearful summit” with Abbington about their respective “difficult experiences” working with the dancer, “who is well known to be intense during training”. A source told The Sun: “They met in person to share their experiences. Their meeting was emotional but …

Daniela Klette: dog walker, dancer – and Germany’s most-wanted woman | Germany

To Anna Spiering she was simply another friendly dog walker, who greeted her with a smile whenever their paths crossed in the neighbourhood, but from whose snappy crossbreed, Malaika, her dog, Harry, knew to keep a safe distance. That was until she saw Daniela Klette’s face on TV earlier this week. “I recognised her immediately,” Spiering said, pausing on a walk with Harry down Sebastianstraße, a street in Berlin’s Kreuzberg district once divided by the Berlin Wall, adjacent to the former guard-patrolled death strip. She said it was “bizarre now to think I was swapping small talk” with an alleged terrorist. Klette – the last female member of the Red Army Faction (RAF) terror network still on the run until her arrest at her flat on Monday evening – was known by many dog walkers in the area not by her name or her notorious past, rather as the “owner of Malaika”.

British dancer dies in US after eating mislabelled biscuit containing peanuts | Allergies

Published by skeptic

Tributes have been paid to a dancer from Lancashire who moved to the US and died after eating a biscuit that contained peanuts. Órla Baxendale, 25, had a peanut allergy. She died on 11 January after going into anaphylactic shock caused by the mislabelled vanilla florentine cookie she ate. Baxendale, originally from east Lancashire, had moved to New York to pursue her career as a professional dancer. Her sister, the actor Ciara Baxendale, known for playing Izzy in E4’s My Mad Fat Diary, paid tribute on Instagram, describing Órla as radiant and a dreamer who was cherished by everyone. “I will never ever, as long as I am on this earth, stop talking about how radiant, how beautiful, how kind, how cool, how hilarious, how witty, how vibrant she was. “She had a golden touch. Everything about her was magical, she was just so otherworldly. She looks just like an angel, and I just cannot believe that she has gone.” In a statement, her family said: “Órla was truly one of a kind. She was …

Singapore dancer with Down syndrome: June Lin performs and teaches under dance company Apsara Asia

Published by Sam

For Lin, her passion for dance began with a supportive “village”. Her parents, Jean Wang and Lim Joe Ann, supported her endeavours from an early age. Even though they were told that children with Down syndrome would be limited in many ways, they backed their daughter wholeheartedly in her interests and hobbies, from dance to arts and crafts. When she performs at Apsara Asia events, her parents, older brother and his wife, are there to cheer her on. And their family group chat on WhatsApp is filled with videos of Lin dancing on stage.  Dancing aside, her other love is bowling, which she started in her early twenties. She would take part in bowling meets organised by the Down Syndrome Association (Singapore) and her skills developed to the point where she represented Singapore in the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles, United States. There, she won a silver medal in bowling. Source link
