Jamelia was the latest celebrity to leave Strictly Come Dancing 2015 during tonight’s results show.
The singer, and her partner Tristan MacManus, have been in the bottom two 5 times since the series began. Tonight they were in the bottom two with Peter Andre and his partner Janette Manrara. After both couples had danced again judges Craig Revel-Horwood, Darcey Bussell and Bruno Tonioli decided to save Peter and Janette.
Len disagreed and said that he would have saved Jamelia and Tristan based on tonight’s dance-off. His vote didn’t count though as he was outnumbered by his fellow judges.
Talking about her time on the show Jamelia said, āIām sorry to go, I do have to say Iāve had the most fantastic time. Iāve made the most amazing set of friends, Iāve danced at the Tower Ballroom and Iāve danced with Tristan MacManus a million times! I just feel so fortunate to have had this experience and I hope that Iāve shown people that if you are determined and if you work hard then you can surpass whatever you think. I thought I was only going to get to week three and be gone but Iām here at the Tower Ballroom and made it to Blackpool, Iām happy! Iāve said it over and over again, I could not have had a better partner than Tristan, heās so fantastic, so positive and he really has believed in me. Itās down to him why Iāve made it all the way to Blackpool, thank you!ā
Tristan added, āJameliaās done great and even tonight, it was a completely different dance weāve just done and unfortunately someone else did a completely different dance as well, it was unbelievable! Again, first and foremost we are dance teachers, we compete and what we want to do is pass on some sort of information to someone and the improvement in Jamelia every week has been unbelievable and I couldnāt be more proud.ā
Tonight’s results show featured performances from Anastacia and Take That.
