Self indulgent rubbish imo.
Totally agree. I wouldn't go near any man who did that, narcissism is a complete turn off!

I didn't mind him when he was on the show but my opinion of him has completely changed and I now agree with everyone who said he was fake and all the crying was an act.

*scratching head* so, lemme get this straight. He posts a pic of his incredible body and that has convinced you that he's a fake.

I do love how some people's minds work. Hope your Christmas is all that you could wish for

Christ on a bike, so much negativity because of a simple selfie!

Comments like "yuk", "cringe worthy" and "nauseating" are just silly and tell more about the person who posts it than about Ore.

I don't find Danny remotely attractive but it would be disingenuous to say he's not good looking. I wish people could just be same and say "Not my cup of tea" instead of writing a cascade of insults about Ore and his body. Beauty comes in all shapes and forms, just say you don't fancy him and move on, no need to get personal.

He's absolutely gawjus! More selfies, please!

It's got nothing to do with how attractive Ore is - he is obviously a handsome man with a fit body.

It's the POSE. If he were semi naked in an appropriate situation, on the beach for instance, smiling at the camera, then that would be a lovely normal selfie.

This selfie is in a weird situation with a sickly pose, arm up, face pulling, it's not a normal selfie, it's a Kardashian type selfie. Ugh.

Why Danny? Why not one of the other competitors or one of the pros? Why compare at all? You could have got your point across (which I agree with btw) without the comparison - or are Danny and Ore going to be locked in a competitive battle forever more

Nope, just really do not like that style of vanity no matter who is sharing.

I agree, I am getting a bit fed up with the Ore v's Danny fight amongst some supporters.

Ore won and Danny was a credible runner up.

I really do not understand all this personal attacks on either Celeb...

It's Christmas, give peace a chance

Well, there's not much scope for comparison this year other than Danny and Greg Rutherford* who, by the way, is another great fan of semi naked selfies - and thank heavens for that too

I could have said Greg but Danny's name just come up since he was being mentioned earlier in topic.

ETA:* unless Rinder and Ed Balls appeal to you; to me, they certainly do not (with all due respect)

But why compare at all? You could have got your point across without it.

A few of the dancers are pretty good with selfies too but not to the levels of Greg Rutherford, mind you.

Someone posting a picture like that tells me that he is an attention seeking narcissist and is definitely not the kind of man I would ever touch with a barge pole.

Why has my Christmas got anything to do with my post, strange how some people's minds work.

If he was that much of a poser, as another poster said, he'd have not been able to resist getting his chest out for at least one of the dances. Maybe Ore only learned his posing face during Strictly and then swept up by his perceived popularity with voters, when asked to show off his new bod to his fans, thought I'll give them my best Strictly face too! In the old days, he'd have sent off a signed photo!

LOL. I doubt that's ever going to be a problem for ya

Seriously, there are literary millions of selfies taken on a daily basis. Are you averse to all of them too?

Or maybe Joanne is a bit "Down with this sort of thing" as Father Ted would say.
Does not strike me as the sort of thing Joanne would accept.

I agree. There was always something that didn't ring true with me about Ore and, having seen this photo, I don't think he was what he appeared to be on the show. I can imagine that Joanne wanted to keep things acceptable for family viewing.

Each to his own though. I didn't like the selfie but if it makes people happy, then good luck to them.

I've never understood how celebs can post pics like that without cringing at their own vanity. They might as well just caption it 'I think I've got a great body....please post your responses below confirming for me how great my body is'.
Yep. And the deliberately low slung jeans for a peek of naughtiness adds to it all. Ore in full Theophilus P. Wildebeeste mode

I really do not see what is wrong with Ore's selfie, I've seen a lot worse

Some FMs saying this proves his tears were fake, REALLY I haven't got a clue how they came to that conclusion taking a selfie = fake tears

Losing a one stone in weight due to 4 months of hard dance training & gaining a body he is now proud of & wishes to show all his supporters, isn't exactly a crime.

I really don't get all this nasty snipping from a lot of people
Surely ppl aren't still bitter at the fact Ore won Strictly & beat Danny ?

It's at times like this I realise just how much I've turned into me mother

I really do not see anything sexy in a photo taken in a mirror, obscured by camera, flash and with the top clothes hung up behind.

I mean, what is the thought process behind trying on some new togs, looking in the mirror and thinking - I like that, while I'm here just just take a picture and upload it to my account ... Cat from Red Dwarf, maybe but I can't say I've ever had a Kodak moment in the Debenhams cubicle.*

(* for clarity, this applies to anyone who thinks we need to see them in their skimpies on the sidebar of shame)

I think you might find with this internet business that with anyone who posts a selfie people tend to comment. I think they expect that though because it's why they put it in such a public place? And some comments will be favourable and some less so. I think he can probably take it, he seems fairly confident in himself.

The man has won strictly against tough competition. He is successful, clever, articulate and has worked hard to get where he has. Why shouldn't he be a tad indulgent. Go for it Ore.
Some people are just plain nasty. Some of the comments in DM were horrible.

Yeah, thanks for that. Am going to have Wham!'s Young Guns as an ear worm for the rest of the day now

I suppose it's a double edged sword - when you are current flavour of the month and you know that what passes for reporting in the SoS is nothing more than the mining Instagram and twitter accounts posting a pic like that is basically catnip and guaranteed to be padded out into an article so the trade off for the positive must be worth the negative.

I'd forgotten all about Andrew Ridgley. George Michael moves . I always had a very soft spot for GM. Never realised he was gay.
