She wasn't that great. My mate is a LOT better than her, and she's only been dancing for about 3/4 years.

I just don't get how you can make an act out of that. Yes she seems good at what she does but it's just not that interesting.

I didn't think she was that good. Needed to be more toned, it was more a wobbly dancer than a belly dancer.

Wobbly jelly dancer, needs to shed a few pounds to look good, then she would be okay - half a stone overweight, but got potential.

I thought it was odd that they all raved about her. She looked as though she'd learned it at a local belly dancing class in the village hall. I think people who are really good at belly dancing would be amazed that she was put through.

They thought she was pretty.

That is the end of the explanation.

What's with all this more toned, wobbly Jelly stuff?! she doesn't need to shed anything to look good... she wasn't overweight or anything.

Can't say much for the actual act, seen better dancing.

I thought her figure was perfect for belly dancing. You can't do it properly without a belly to wobble!!

I wouldn't go as far as to say this was an outstanding act but I think your comment about her being overweight is ridiculous. She had a very nice figure she just wasn't a stick insect.

Anyway, television is notorious for making people look bigger than they really are. If you saw her in real life she would probably be no more than a size 12 or 14 and that is NOT overweight.

Vanessa Feltz can wobble her flab a bit, it doesn't mean it's perfect for belly dancing - the muscles are meant to do that talking, not the belly-jelly.

She was on GMTV this morning and looks as though she has lost weight (or she was sucking her belly in) - i thought what she did was ok, but I wasn't overly excited by her like the juges were for some reason - maybe it was better in "real life" than on the tv??

Overweight? I completely disagree, I thought she looked like a normal, healthy girl.

Anyway, I think she was good and deserved to go through to next round, but that's as far as she should go.

She's not overweight at all, unless you prefer you women bordering on anorexic like Victoria Beckham etc.

Its no wonder women have body issues today when healthy girls are accused of being 'wobbly' when they blatantly are not.

She was no way overweight, and you're supposed to have a bit of a belly to be able to dance with it!!
I think she was put through as the token "sexy girl" of the night though! I don't think she stands much chance of winning.

Didnt think it was that great, im sure theres tons better.

Most people with a half decent body could learn what she did in under a year, thats not a proper talent.

I thought she was extemely seductive when dancing like that. I'm not surprised Simon looked at her the way he did when she was performing her act. I was captivated by her. She certainly knows how to lure the audience to her when she's dancing. She definitely has talent, that's for certain.
