‘That’s our job, to save who we consider should stay in the show. Less judgy than The Voice.’
Camille Kostek hosts Dancing with Myself where 12 contestants perform dances created by the panel in separate pods and the studio audience decides who gets the cash prize.
‘The show is not about virtuosity. I think it’s about people expressing their passion for dancing and their love of dance,’ the Te Felicito songstress clarified.
‘You don’t have to be an expert and most of them aren’t. There’s kids, you know, there’s doctors and teachers. We’ve had construction workers, pilots, and a lot of dentists.’
