To be honest, I doubt she was ever suicidal. It sounds like melodramatic BS to sell her book. Saying "I was upset by what was being said" is fair enough and a completely understandable reaction to some of the nasty comments that did come her way. But that doesn't sell books or get her media attention. Claiming that she had suicidal thoughts gets the attention of the media and publicises her book. Personally, I find her claims distasteful - many people suffer genuinely from suicidal thoughts and, in some cases, do act on those thoughts. It's an awful thing to have to deal with, and Kristina is using it to get sympathy, media attention and publicity for her wretched book!

It's because of ITT that she lost her place last year, Marian keys bitched about her on ITT and that swayed the viewers against her. What is the point of her, emma Kennedy and Christopher biggins on tv? As their all as biased as anything.
The so called facebook group also had a plan to get pixie out and it worked. They'd obviously like to see scd as more of a cheap and childish game show.

Do you have a clip fro, that particular ITT? I can't seem to find it on YouTube...only the Strictly/Gogglebox crossover, but she doesn't mention Pixie in it.

Not as per se, but Marian did bash her last year apparently.

To be fair though, she's entitled to her opinion. There's no evidence that it was she who influenced the voting. Even if she did, it's up to viewers to make up their own minds, so I still wouldn't blame Marian.
I was annoyed that Pixie left, because she was a fantastic dancer, but I don't think she did herself any favours. She came off a little smug and insincere to me, and although I still votes for her, I expect the voting public grew tired of it.

I feel the only reason Pixie left is that people thought she was a shoe in for the final and did not need the votes it often happens with those who are good

This is true, and not the first time that one of the best dancers has found herself/himself in the bottom 2 because voters (probably) thought they were safe and didn't need the votes.
Pixie was possibly unlucky in that her cha cha was not technically good, and Simon's ballroom (A waltz I think?) was exceptionally technically good, something that Darcey picked up on, and, justifiably (because technique is what Len is there to judge) Len endorsed.
Just wish people would stop seeing it as a conspiracy.

When you think that only a very small portion of the people who watch Strictly watch ITT anyway - and then only a small number of them will actually vote - I really don't think it would go anywhere near to influencing the outcome.
I have already posted this in Daniel's thread but thought that I would post it here as well:

i think the reason she was eliminated, the people didn't really like Trent.
but Pixie was a good dancer, especially that Gladiator themed Paso Doble was Epic for me.
i really hope Georgia does better, but she's really likeable and she has a good looking dance partner in Giovanni. ( maybe also a good teacher for her).
i hope you enjoy their Waltz, Nina and let's have our fingers crossed all goes well.
