Yes, I've noticed that as well and tend to read with a raised eyebrow most the time waiting for the shift

It's all conspiracy theories really and hyped up shit too.
![]() The Sun, had a couple of lines on it, NO evidence, nothing to support it, pure gossip. Papers want to sell as many copies as possible, so if they haven't got bad news, they make it all up. A few actually believe it. |

I can't say i've warmed to her. I haven't read anything, but there's something a bit icy and vacant about her.

It probably goes back to the show when they got to find out who their partners were, and when she found out hers she said "oh I am really pleased I thought I would get Anton"!!!! I just thought that was really rude and disrespectful. |

It was probably an unwise thing to say, but I doubt whether she was being deliberately disrespectful. Until this year, Anton has usually found himself being paired with a no-hoper, so her words could equally be construed as a comment on what she thought of her own chances. I think it was probably just an ill-judged attempt at humour. Remember Anton's own comment last night on finding himself and Katy at the top of the leaderboard. "So this is what it feels like." Shows how often he has been there.

You see rudeness and disrepect - I just see self-deprecating humour. Anton has a longstanding habit of getting the shall-we-say not-so-good dancers, so what she was joking was that she was bad enough the producers might have thought she'd be hat category too.

Sounds like the usual media muck stirring, and probably has no basis in reality.

She is one of my two favs, perhaps the stories are true perhaps they are not but she is a good Dancer imo. There will always be stories about a number of the Celebs it happens ever year.

I haven't read anything about Helen, but I just cant warm to her. She is not the easiest person to warm to IMO.

Maybe she is topping the votes?
I wouldn't be surprised if the bosses are putting these stories out there... |

I took that to mean that she wondered if she would be classed as one of Anton's stereotypical dance partners - the Anne Widdecombe/Nancy Dell'olio/Judy Murray scenario.

Yeah I agree. The press have a great history of only providing the facts and not embellishing the smallest of truths.... Or not, as the many high court cases and apologies prove. If that's your only source, then I'd take it with a mountain of salt!!!

I am so pleased there are no joke dancers. Even Anthony and Ewan were not as bad as the ones mentioned. Jeremy and Daniel are OK too IMO and don't mind watching them. I used hate watching Anne Widdecome, Nancy and Jerry Hall. Didn't mind Judy so much as I think she did try her best.
Iwan was just generally bad - as in lacking in dance content. Anthony was not bad for only having the use of one arm. It would have been interesting to see how well he may have performed with two functioning arms. I think he would have stayed in for longer. Jeremy is far better than I had anticipated. He does struggle a bit with some of the Latin stuff though. His legs are incredibly long and it must be very difficult for him to be able to manage some of the moves in some dances as a result. On balance, this years crop are reasonably good. |

Strictly sells newspapers (just look at the front page of The Sunday Mirror today) and as there's nothing to be said about Helen (they've already mentioned her split from her hubby), it seems only natural to pin something like this on her as she's a) not always in the papers talking about herself (Peter Andre) and b) well spoken and posh which the public and the tabloids hate. Aljaz and Janette are also madly in love with one another so they cannot manufacture the tiresome showmance rumours either.

Reading a tacky, downmarket tabloid rag like the Mirror and The Sun could just about be forgiven if you regard them as an amusement only, and then line the cat litter tray with them or wrap chips in them
Actually believing the crap they print marks you out as being something else entirely. |

Who does that benefit? I always suggest a good bracing walk in the fresh air - getting out more is so good for one - but then who am I to have an opinion? ![]() ![]()

Stop the press.........I'm a professional who dislikes a few of my colleagues and some of the customers, none of them would ever know it though.
Uber bitch me, just like Helen

It was claimed by the Mirror, by no known sources. She tweeted saying it was a load of rubbish so who knows.

I don't believe the bs people put in papers. Helen is a lovely person and not the type of girl I'd associate with being a b***h. She's says it's not true and she gets on with the other celebs and pros. It's upsets me when people say nasty things about one of my favourite celebrities. At least she's not like Caroline Flack last year she completely got on my nerves
The other that sticks in the mind was a tip off that Prince Charles was meeting someone and spending the night with her on board the Royal Train parked up somewhere remote (before his marriage). They arranged for someone to crawl under the train, not quite sure what they were looking for but got a pretty good idea and not sure what they would have done if they found any used ones! |
