Just throwing it out there that she might not be like that all the time, despite you suggesting there's no point in thinking otherwise?
He also made mention of the fact that she wanted to be boss. HE is the teacher in this situation .. she should learn to accept it or she won't learn anything. No wonder she's hardly progressing. She thinks she knows best. |

Why did Brendan say 'when teacher becomes student .. which is pretty much every day'?

Totally respect that, however you said that she "is" abrasive, a slight difference. As I've said on previous posts, i fully respect you and others are entitled to an opinion, just as I'm entitled to tell you that you're wrong.

The lady whom you're saying is "very abrasive" just happens to be a very good friend of mine. That's how I know!

She thinks she knows best. Jay said that Aliona just knows what he needs. That is an example of a teacher working out her student and adapting and anticipating. |

Well thats fair enough and your opinion .But unfortunately she is coming across as quite tetchy and a tad deluded , If the girl is not at all like that it is a bit of a shame for her .As what we see is someone not very willing to be in the wrong or be corrected .

Indeed it does make me biased, however having known someone for the length of time I have enables me to defend her when she's accused of being "deluded", "abrasive", a "princess" or various other comments I've read. As I've said to others Heather, I totally accept that people are entitled to an opinion, but to state that someone IS of a certain characteristic without any basis of truth to it makes me want to defend her. I'm sure that if someone made a comment about a friend of yours that you knew wasn't true, then you too would reserve the right to tell them that they were wrong?
But I think you need to gird your loins because those of us not in her circle of pals can only judge on what we see . |

You're opinion that she thinks she knows best, or a comment based on anything other than the 2min VT shown?

Wow Home Run. Perhaps if people appreciated what a hard couple of years it appears she has had they would not be as nasty about her.

I think they'd be stupidly naive if they think that. I and highly doubt they do.
Of course their primary objective is to dance well (and dancing well isn't just getting the steps right) but they know they'll only get votes if they are likeable (read Gaby Roslin, DVO) so yes they do need to think about how they come across on ITT and accepting critique ![]() Unsurprisingly, she is friends with Gabby Logan: https://twitter.com/GabbyLogan/statu...19862468657152 (mind you, she is also close friends with Katie) |

Thanks Mac. It's not necessarily about that though. I'm sure the other contestants taking part may have their own personal reasons for taking part, for me it's just defending someone against peoples comments which aren't true.

She thinks she knows best. I don't know what Kirsty is like at all, I just think people are grabbing onto the tiniest of things that she says and does and using it against her which is a shame. I still quite like her but to be honest I hope she does go out of SCD soon, as not only is she not very good but clearly its making some people dislike her which is a shame as I was looking forward to her appearing on the series. |

Whether or not she comes across as abrasive is in the eye of the beholder surely? I accept that she may not be so off camera but how she is and how she appears to others, especially filtered through TV, is not necessarily the same thing. Richard Madeley always came across as a total pillock on the TV but my old man met him once and said he was a lovely bloke.
I admire you sticking up for your friend, I really do, but I don't think those expressing their opinion are doing so on the basis of no evidence whatsoever. |

Dont know Sid , she is a very abrasive person and it not very endearing to be honest
Can't say I've taken agin Kirsty though. I think she's alright, liked her on the Games, she's just completely unsuited to the world of dance. |
