Strictly Come Dancing‘s Ellie Goldstein has revealed she is dancing to K-Pop Demon Hunters’ biggest hit this weekend.
Model and actress Ellie and her professional partner, Vito Coppola, have been given the smash-hit tune Golden for their next dance.
It comes just a week after social media star George Clarke and Alexis Warr performed a Couple’s Choice to K-Pop Demon Hunters’ Soda Pop. And viewers have expressed concerns for Ellie over the decision to dance another K-Pop Couple’s Choice so soon after George and Alexis’…
Strictly Come Dancing: Ellie’s K-Pop Demon Hunters reveal
Ellie and Vito revealed their song choice on Monday night’s Strictly: It Takes Two (October 13). As Golden began playing in the studio, the pair danced in their seats.
Host Fleur East then asked for a sneak peek at their routine. The only trouble was, Ellie began giving too much away and Vito had to step in!
Vito told Fleur: “It’s going to be an Ellie celebration. We are going to celebrate Ellie. Can we give away some steps?” Vito and Ellie then proceeded to show Fleur their ‘Snake Step’ and our ‘Peacock Step’. But as Ellie continued showing more movements with her arms, Vito wrapped his own arms around her and said: “No, we don’t want to give it away all the choreography!”
Ellie then told Fleur they have some “twerking moments”, before standing up and proceeding to twerk. Vito exclaimed: “We don’t want to give it away!” Ellie added: “It’s not a spoiler, just a dance move that I know!”
More K-Pop Demon Hunters?!
However, Strictly fans expressed their worries for Ellie, sharing concerns that her Couple’s Choice will be directly compared to George’s, given that she too is dancing to a K-Pop Demon Hunters song. One said: “Two K-Pop songs is a row is a massive risk.”
Others complained that the BBC needs to stop pushing the film on the show…
“Two weeks running now a Couple’s Choice has been done to this K-Pop Demons Hunters thing (which alot of people don’t know). #Strictly needs to stop trying to push it down our throats,” said one. “Maybe they should just rename Couple’s Choice K-Pop Demon Hunters,” said another.
“I’m sorry but why are we having Couple’s Choices to songs from K-Pop Demon Hunters two weeks running?” another asked. “Wait so Ellie and Vito are doing a Couple’s Choice to a K-Pop Demon Hunters song the week after george and alexis did Couple’s Choice to K-Pop Demon Hunters?!” said another.
Ellie’s top score yet
Last Saturday, Ellie and Vito took on a Samba. Their dance was inspired by the Barbie Movie and they received their best score yet. They finished the leaderboard with 27 points, which placed them eighth from the top out of 13. Ellie said: “We cannot believe it!” Vito added: “We were pinching ourselves.”
When asked how much more they have to give, Vito added: “There is so much potential. We are working on so many skills Ellie has.” He added: “We are hiding some of it. We want to slowly, slowly give…but not too much away. We are like a blossoming flower and slowly showing out beautiful colours.”
Stefan confirms his return
Monday’s Strictly: It Takes Two also featured an appearance from Stefan Dennis and his pro partner, Dianne Buswell. Stefan was forced to pull out of Movie Week after falling ill. But he has now confirmed he will be back in the ballroom this Saturday.
The Neighbours legend told viewers in a video message: “We’re back in the training room and, if all goes well – which it will – I’m going to be back on the floor with the lovely Dianne this Saturday. I’m looking forward to it.”
Stefan and Dianne confirmed they will be doing the Charleston, but they did not reveal their song choice.
