Canoo CFO and Chief Lawyer Depart

In a revealing moment on It Takes Two, Strictly Come Dancing professional Johannes Radebe shared the emotional impact of his recent dance-off survival alongside partner Montell Douglas. The duo faced a tough elimination challenge against Sam Quek and pro Nikita Kuzmin, who ultimately were sent home by the judges.

Johannes opened up about the bittersweet experience, explaining why they found it difficult to celebrate their continuation in the competition. “It was really sad to see Sam and Nikita go,” he expressed. “When the judges saved us, we couldn’t celebrate because Montell was focused on Nikita and Sam.” He acknowledged the significant journey both couples had embarked on this season, emphasizing the sadness of their exit.

The recent dance-off sparked considerable backlash from viewers who were outraged by the decision. Many felt that other couples, particularly Pete Wicks and Wynne Evans, should have faced the elimination instead. Viewers took to social media to voice their frustration, with one commenting, “Right decision in the dance-off, wrong decision for the bottom two!” Others echoed similar sentiments, calling for a reevaluation of the voting process.

In their post-elimination reflections, Johannes conveyed the distress that comes with being in a dance-off, stating, “The thought that the fun and laughter might end with your new friend is a horrendous feeling.” He praised Sam and Nikita’s performance, calling them amazing dancers.

Montell added, “The support from Johannes kept me going. Our shared love for this journey has pushed us into another week, and I’m incredibly proud of how far we’ve come in the ballroom.” The duo’s chemistry and determination were clear as they navigated the challenges of the competition.
