He's neither deluded nor sweet, in my opinion, he very well may be a rather prickly arrogant sort - defensively perhaps, from very young, and he has had one over on us.
I don't actually mind. It was interesting to watch. And he couldn't blame the public for voting for him, he played the game.”
Interesting interpretation. I thought his "I thought I was quite good" comment was genuine - in that he sounded quite surprised. I think that is the key to why he can't dance - he literally can't see what it is he's doing wrong - how he moves in relation to how it should be done & others (ie the pros) are doing it.
It's a bit like someone who's tone deaf & can't hear the difference between the note they're being played & the note they're actually singing.
On top of that I think he's a bit cocky & arrogant... & very, very dull...
