DanceX finalist has spoken of her devastation at Arlene Phillips decision to send her home from the DanceX finals.
“When Arlene told me I wasn’t through to the next round, I was absolutely devastated,” Chelsey told The Mirror. “I tried to blink away tears on television but when the cameras left I cried on the phone to my mum. It was my first audition and I wanted it so badly.
“Back on the stall in Skeggie, my head buzzed with plans to move to London for more auditions. So when Arlene tapped me on the shoulder I was so stunned I couldn’t speak.”
Chelsey has praised her fellow finalists for making her feel welcome, despite the fact she was initially turned down.
“They could have made me feel second-rate but they haven’t,” she explained. “You might expect some bitchiness as it’s so competitive but everyone’s so nice.”
DanceX continues tonight at 6.40pm on BBC One.
