In a blistering critique that's set to rock the BBC's flagship dance show, Kerry Katona has pulled no punches in branding Strictly Come Dancing as fundamentally 'rigged'. The explosive comments were made in her regular column for OK! Magazine, where the media personality holds nothing back.
The former Atomic Kitten singer didn't just stop at calling the competition fake; she went a step further by accusing producers of playing favourites. 'The best dancer never wins – it's all about the journey and who the producers want to win,' Katona claimed, suggesting the outcome is predetermined long before the glitterball trophy is awarded.
Her harsh assessment comes with a personal twist. Katona revealed she had previously turned down an invitation to appear on the show herself. Her reason? A complete lack of trust in the programme's integrity. 'I was asked to do it, but I said no. I just don't trust it,' she stated bluntly, implying she saw behind the curtain before even setting foot on the dance floor.
This isn't the first time the mother-of-five has voiced her scepticism. She concluded her rant with a damning summary, labelling the entire production as 'so fake and so fixed'. Her comments are sure to fuel ongoing debates about the authenticity of reality television and the behind-the-scenes machinations that decide who wins and who loses.
