Former Strictly Come Dancing professional James Jordan has never been one to mince his words, and his latest revelation is sure to set tongues wagging across the dance community. The outspoken dancer, who spent seven years dazzling audiences on the BBC flagship show, has finally revealed which celebrity he believes holds the dubious honour of being the worst dancer in Strictly's storied history.
The Unforgettable Dance Floor Disaster
In his regular entertainment column, Jordan didn't hold back when recalling the celebrity who made the least impact on the famous Strictly dancefloor. While many viewers might expect the usual suspects to be named, Jordan's choice might surprise even the most dedicated Strictly fans.
The ex-pro, known for his no-nonsense approach during his time partnered with celebrities including Pamela Stephenson and Denise Van Outen, explained that technical ability wasn't the only factor in his decision-making process. "It's not just about being technically poor," Jordan revealed, "it's about that complete lack of rhythm that even the most intensive training can't fix."
More Than Just Two Left Feet
Jordan elaborated that true dance floor disasters combine multiple unfortunate qualities. "Some celebrities try hard but just don't have natural talent, while others struggle with the performance aspect," he noted. "But the absolute worst are those who possess that perfect storm of no rhythm, no performance quality, and no improvement despite the best efforts of their professional partner."
The former dancer, who now appears as a regular entertainment commentator, didn't specify whether his choice ever received the dreaded 'one' from the judges, but given his scathing assessment, it's likely the scores weren't particularly generous.
A Show That Transforms Novices
Strictly Come Dancing has become famous for its remarkable transformations, taking complete dancing novices and turning them into competent performers over the course of the competition. From sports stars to politicians, journalists to actors, the show has seen it all.
Yet according to Jordan, there remains one celebrity who defied even Strictly's magic touch. His comments serve as a stark reminder that while the show can work wonders, sometimes even glitterballs and sequins can't create a dancer from someone with absolutely no natural ability.
While Jordan stopped short of naming names in his latest column, his revelation has already sparked intense speculation among Strictly fans, with many taking to social media to debate their own picks for the show's least accomplished celebrity dancer.
