The 53-year-old was also asked about how he would respond to criticism from the judges; Shirley Ballas, Craig, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke.

He said, “Well, we know how ruthless Craig Revel Horwood can be, so hopefully I can get myself into his good books” in an interview with OLBG.com.

All four were not on his side in the show’s most recent dance-off on Sunday evening, despite his best efforts to win over the judges.

Amber and Nikita Kuzmin danced their Cha Cha Cha to Break Free by Ariana Grande again, while Jimmy and Lauren Oakley performed their American Smooth to Purple Rain by Prince.

All four judges decided to save Amber after the two couples had danced, and she will return to the dance floor next week.

Jimmy responded to Tess Daly’s question about his time on the show by saying, “I have absolutely loved my experience.

I have to express my gratitude for allowing me to experience this, and also to my daughters for encouraging me to do this. Never did I anticipate enjoying it so much.

The behind-the-scenes staff were described as “absolutely magnificent,” according to the football manager.

He continued, “This experience will stay with me forever.”

Most important, Lauren, this girl is just absolutely incredible. She has treated me like a top priority. You are brilliant.

Lauren said she was “absolutely devastated” that their journey had come to an end by sharing her thoughts.

We’ve laughed so much, they said. She said, “We had the best time, and I’m so proud of how far he has come.”

And it shows that anyone can dance if they have the will. He plays football! And he proceeded to dance in that manner.

“We had the best time, and I’m so proud and honored to have been able to teach you,” he said. You have taught me so much.

From Nosferatu’s towering Count Orlok to the spooky Roman Godfrey in Hemlock Grove, Bill Skarsgrd has portrayed a number of nightmarish characters on-screen.

Pennywise the Dancing Clown, one of his most well-known villains, is one of them, as the star returns Tim Curry’s iconic role from Rocky Horror’s Rocky Horror series IT Chapter One and its follow-up, IT Chapter Two, in 2017.

He is now reprising that role once more for the IT-inspired TV series, Welcome to Derry. The eight-part series will explore the origins of the sewer-dwelling creature in more depth, drawing from the interlude pages in Stephen King’s 1986 novel.

Fans may be curious about star Bill’s life outside the box office now that the series is available for viewing in the UK tomorrow (October 27).

The duo have been romantically linked since 2016 after the were spotted together at the premiere of The Divergent Series: Allegiant, and the following month, Alida shared a photo of the actor on her Instagram account.

The episode the actor plays Pennywise in is currently a closely-kept secret, but Andy and Barbara Muschietti, the show’s executive producers, made a tease about it coming later in the series.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Barbara claimed, “I’ve said this before, but he is our shark.” You must unleash all of his complexity at the appropriate points, otherwise it loses its strength.

Because of that dose-ification, I am firmly persuaded that he is still as terrifying as he is.

Following a shocking dance-off, another star has left Strictly Come Dancing.

Despite receiving his best score in the comeptition so far, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was sent packing by the judges. Along with Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin, the 53-year-old former Chelsea footballer and his partner Lauren Oakley finished in the bottom two.

The judges unanimously decided to save Amber after the two couples had danced a second time before Jimmy was axed.

Jimmy said he never anticipated watching the show so much after the elimination. I have to express my gratitude for allowing me to experience this, as well as my daughters’ encouragement to me to travel to this location. Never did I anticipate enjoying it so much. Thank you very much for the incredible people working in the behind the scenes, from the hairdressers to the wardrobe people.

This experience will endure forever in my heart. The most important thing to mention is that Lauren loves this girl. She has treated me like a top priority. He referred to you as “a diamond.”

I’m utterly devastated that it’s ended, said Lauren. There have been a lot of laughs. We had the best time, and I’m so proud of how far he has come. And it shows that anyone can dance if they have the will. He plays football! And he proceeded to dance in that manner. We had the best time, and I’m so happy and honored to have been able to teach you. You’ve been a fantastic student.

The only thing you can do is dance as best as you can, Jimmy said, before the public can decide. Because I wanted to do better than my first one, I was actually quite content to dance once more. So listen up, I had a blast. Thank you very much for your comments, from the people who are above [pointing to the other couples] to the judges.

However, many fans claim that the outcomes have been “fixed” and that the outcome has caused a “fix.” One user said, “Wow, shock, the West End star is better at dancing than the football player,” on X, which was before Twitter. #StrictlyFixed Feel for Jimmy, said another person. Did not merit leaving this early. pleased with his collaboration with Lauren. #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing.

Former X Factor winner Joe McElderry put online bullies firmly in their place as he clapped back at weight jibes. The singer took to social media to slam those who said he was piling on the weight.

And in a photo upload, Joe, 34, proved they don’t know what they ware talking about. Not prepared to let the hurtful comments slide, Joe shared a topless snap on his Instagram to prove the trolls wrong.

He revealed that an online user had targeted him because of how he looked, “like a house end.” In Joe’s native north-eastern dialect, the term is used to describe a heavier person.

He wrote, “Wake up this morning to a comment that, for those not from the North, basically refers to me as fat.” Social media is crazy, isn’t it, to be honest? What can people say about other people, in their minds?

Joe continued by joking that he “did what any self-respecting person would do… threw on my sparkly sequin pants, said “f the haters,” and left the tour, which was reportedly sold out.

He later acknowledged that, in spite of his impressive physique, “we’ve normalized saying horrible things and doing horrible things to each other; it’s not normal to behave that way!” Therefore, this serves as a reminder to “never let the keyboard warriors get you down.”

His followers overwhelmingly endorsed his statements. Hayley Soraya, an actress, once praised his post, saying, “They obviously don’t know how to spell FIT.

Another once said, “Love attracts love for love, and love attracts love for love for love.” Congratulations on your self-assurance, so don’t get offended by negative comments. Keep your faith, Joe, because your sold-out performances and support from your supporters “show the truth”!

Joe, who was crowned the winner of the ITV talent show in 2009 – beating Olly Murs to the title – recently revealed to the Mirror the surprise moment a goldfish was thrown at him during a festival performance. He explained how he initially thought it was a football.

He said, “Years ago, I was playing a concert in Ireland,” in reference to the bizarre incident. And since it was a large outdoor festival, I thought someone might have thrown a football, or something, at the stage because this huge football-looking object flew over and landed right next to me on the other side of the stage.

Someone actually chose to throw a goldfish in a bag at the stage after it had been won. And the stage was merely a goldfish in a bag.

The unfortunate thing did survive. However, I believe that some security personnel attempted to care for it when they returned it.
