Jamie Laing claims he was in Strictly dance off as fans thought he was 'posh blond idiot'

“I went into Strictly thinking, ‘this is going to be amazing, I’m going to reach the final, I’m going to win it, it’s going to be great’, and then I was in the dance off the first week and I was like, ‘well this is going to be a very short-lived fairytale’.”

He went on to add: “Lots of people saw what they thought was just a posh blond idiot coming on their TV.

“They probably thought, ‘we’re not going to vote for him’.

“I think what’s great about the show is that it has changed, hopefully, people’s perception a little bit, and they just see that I’m actually maybe quite a kind boy and that’s a good thing,” Jamie told the Daily Mail.
