In what can only be described as a spellbinding spectacle, drag sensation La Voix conjured up pure magic on the Strictly Come Dancing floor during Saturday night's Halloween special. The performer, partnered with professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, delivered a Charleston to 'Heads Will Roll' that left both judges and audience members utterly bewitched.
A Performance That Brought the House Down
From the moment La Voix took to the floor in a spectacular skeleton-themed costume, it was clear this would be no ordinary routine. The choreography blended classic Charleston steps with theatrical flair, creating a performance that was equal parts terrifying and terrific.
Judge Craig Revel Horwood, notoriously difficult to impress, declared it "fabulous, darling!" while Motsi Mabuse was seen rising to her feet in spontaneous applause. The routine earned impressive scores across the board, placing La Voix comfortably at the top of the leaderboard.
More Than Just a Dance
La Voix's appearance on Strictly represents a significant moment for LGBTQ+ representation on mainstream television. As one of the most prominent drag artists to compete on the show, their participation marks another step forward in diversity and inclusion within British entertainment.
Speaking after their performance, La Voix expressed both relief and exhilaration: "To bring drag to the Strictly ballroom during Halloween week felt like the perfect marriage of art forms. Giovanni has been an incredible partner, pushing me to technical heights I never thought possible."
The Halloween Magic Continues
The entire Strictly cast embraced the spooky season with enthusiasm, transforming the famous ballroom into a haunted spectacle. From ghostly waltzes to vampire-inspired tangos, the evening was packed with performances that celebrated the macabre while maintaining the show's signature glamour.
However, it was La Voix's show-stopping routine that truly captured the spirit of Halloween - thrilling, unexpected, and utterly unforgettable. As the competition progresses, all eyes will be on this dynamic pairing to see what magic they conjure next.
