Michelle Visage: 'You were yelling at me' Strictly star hits back at pro Giovanni Pernice

Michelle Visage, 51, seemed unimpressed with her partner Giovanni Pernice when they discussed their first dance together backstage. The Strictly Come Dancing couple received rave reviews from the judges after they impressed with their incredible Cha Cha Cha. However, the Ru Paul’s Drag Race star had one issue she wanted to raise with the Italian ballroom and Latin dancer. She exclaimed: “I can’t believe it! You were yelling at me the whole time!”

Giovanni was quick to clarify that he was only raising his voice at his celebrity partner to encourage her.

He replied: “Yeah, well I said carry on, to do it.”

Fortunately, the pair seemed to put the “yelling” incident behind them as Michelle gushed about their scores from the panel.

The TV personality said in reference to the show’s notoriously tough judge Craig Revel Horwood: “We got an eight from Craig on week one!”

Giovanni admitted in response: “I’m speechless!”

While praising the couple’s performance on the show, Craig said: “My goal when I’m judging is to help as well my darling, but it seems you don’t need it.”

Satisfied with his remark at first, Michelle added: “It’s true, it’s true.”

He then jokingly continued: “Because its black.”

Pointing at Michelle’s face on his attire, he added: “Don’t look at this… the face, no.

“But the rest is a very good T-shirt and it suits me very well… and look at my hair.”

The RuPaul’s Drag Race judge seemed irritated by the remark as she shot a disapproving glance to the camera.

Strictly Come Dancing continues next Saturday at 6.40pm
