Oti Mabuse: Strictly pro admits Graeme Swann has 'competition' with surprising star

Strictly Come Dancing 2018 professional Oti Mabuse, 28, took to Twitter to reveal she thinks I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Harry Redknapp, 71, could give Graeme Swann, 39, a run for his money with “dad dancing”. The football manager attempted the floss dance on the ITV2 challenge show earlier this week and Oti compared his moves to Graeme’s. The cricket star performed the popular move in a routine with Oti in the early stages of the show. Oti took to her Twitter to compare the two, writing:” The floss! @Swannyg66 I think Harry Redknapp could give you a bit of competition lol dad dancing United #ImACeleb.”

The dancer went on to discuss Harry’s recent comment about the small portion of food he and Noel Edmonds won for the camp.

The contestants were awarded with a plate of cheese and grapes after the pair won the Dingo Dollar challenge.

Unimpressed with the portion, Harry asked if the small portion was for all 11 campmates.

Finding the comment amusing, Oti commented: “‘Is that for the whole camp?’ Lmao Harry redknapp @imacelebrity lmao.”(sic)

Meanwhile, Graeme and Oti performed the Quickstep on the show last night.

The dancing duo received mixed comments from the four judges and earned themselves 24 out of 40 points.

Head judge Shirley Ballas said: “I thought when you came out, your entry was great… then you had a couple of little hiccups.

“But let me tell you, when you had a hiccup, you recovered.”

Craig Revel Horwood added: “It was like watching the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz, unfortunately.”

Darcey Bussell commented: “Oti has really pushed you on this Quickstep and you’ve accomplished a lot… it’s just keeping that consistency from beginning to end.”

Ahead of their performance hinted their routine wasn’t going well as she posted a picture of her hitting Graeme with a pillow.

She uploaded the snap from their interview on Strictly: It Takes Two.

Otis posted the picture with the caption: “Week 10 quickstep!!! This is the best pic I found that could describe it.”

Elsewhere, Oti has joined forces with Cheryl and Matthew Morrison for new show The Greatest Dancer.

The latest BBC talent contest will be hosted by Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo.

Strictly Come Dancing the results show continues tonight at 7.20pm on BBC One.
