When I was growing up in Britain, African Africans and Afro-Caribbeans were very culturally divided. This dance therefore warmed my soul. We may be divided by history, but culturally we have the same roots.
@@Rusty84CV Rusty clearly describes your eyesight as well. JoJo is arguably the best male dancer there. You can _always_ tell where he is in a group number
This literally made me cry it was so damned brilliant. The joy in their faces is infectious, their dancing is off the scale. Jojo I bloody love you. Montell you are beautiful inside and out and hell can you dance❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
THE best dance of the f****** night?! I loved loved loved it! Craig I know you will NEVER give a 10 on week 5 but can’t you make an exception just this once? Dedicating that to her Nan was amazing to do and I’m sure she’ll be looking down 🕊️ I loved the creative choreography and her confidence! Honestly pure joy to watch! Standing ovation in my living room! 40! 40! 40!
Oh Jo Jo!!!! Just watching you looking so joyous and being strengthened by a strong black woman with a huge supportive family. I love you both. Keep building. 🎉🎉🎉
Well done Jojo, everything you touch turns into gold and what a phenomenal piece. Montell your hips don’t lie and you are in good hands… well done guys🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
O.M.G. this was fabulous! Correct me if I am wrong: those flags they showed at the end represent Montell's and JoJo's heritage, Jamaican and South African. This number will sure become one of the most memorable in SCD history.
@@chellep7463 the music bit you're referring to I believe is from the song Jerusalema which is a South African song. Hamza used it for his dance but it's mainly a reference to SA
This will honestly be just as legendary as Hamza's couples choice, Montell has been my winner since week 1 and here she is proving her talent again!! Biggest smile on my face watching this, I just had a feeling it would be BRILLIANT!! ❤
Ever since 2021 Johannes started building up his confidence with his dance partners and he's got the best out of them. And this is a prime example. 10/10
Strictly should create a couple's choice week where they dance a series of specific dance styles such as: Contemporary, Jazz, Hip hop, Afrobeat, Bollywood, Disco, Flamenco, Country, Bachata, Lambada, etc. It could also be called dancing around the world week.
I believe they did world week one year before because I remember an Irish dance as well but I think it was still ballroom dances but to different themes I think, I can’t really remember but I remember that there was world week once before.
Wow this this african dance is amazing I think Montell is going to be in the final this year well done Montell I have no words to describe that 10 out of 10 for me.
This was AMAZING I LOVE AND ADORE JOHANNES my favourite strictly dancer id go as far to say he’s probably the best dancer I’ve ever seen ever. I think his partner Jo Jo is beautiful and a amazing talented dancer !! They were both a absolute joy to watch last night and I’m so pleased they got 10 /10 well deserved
And now we have a 'Holy Trinity' of Couples Choice!!!! Hamza and Jowita, Punam and Gorka and completed by Montell and Johannes, for me these are the top three routines I have seen in recent years on Strictly, this representation of other cultures is so good!!! That's from a White British man, I loved this so much, although Craig clearly misplaced his 10 paddle ...
This really needs to be longer, could have gone for 10 minutes and I'd have loved it all. Hope they make it through to showcase and do something like this!
I really hope Montell wins this I really love her energy her passion and dedication she's puts in to her dance routines every week watching This dance last night one off the best I have seen she's such a beautiful person With an amazing personality johanes her partner I absolutely adore him he's just one of the loveliest guys ever Love his smile and he's such an amazing fantastic dancer So talented I hope she's wins this I want her to Montell your nan would be very proud of you she's watching over you Good luck sweetheart in the competition 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💖💖💃🕺Sending you and johanes lots off love
Incredible musical arrangement and incredible dance. My favourite couple's choice of all time. I got emotional seeing this fusion of our cultures, and MoJo smashed it!
Yes. Montell is properly back. She is here, finally! She has just done an iconic and defining dance that will solidify her as standing out among the constestants. Her moment has arrived! Controversial, but this is kinda better than Hamza's, as this means a lot to Johannes as well. It is a celebration of both their heritages and they are shared in this moment. 10s, I can't believe it! I've been waiting for her to enact a dance worthy of her potential! I didn't expect this! But I'm so happy for her! About time she get her moment.
absolutely brilliant! robbed of a 10 from craig. really hope they redo this to get the 10 they deserve WHEN they make the final (because i know they will)
Great to see Montell really shine and bring her whole self to the dance. Loved everything this represented for her and that they were both dancing with their respective flags! That was a really nice touch. Again, like Punam's dance, I wish I could've seen more choreography. She did amazing and should be proud of herself, plus I loved her outfit!
Dancers can get technique, they can get the music, they can get the emotion, but not many can transcend that and get the swagger in ballroom and get the soul in Latin. Montell definitely got the soul ❤
