Speaking to The Sun, Goldie admitted that he isn’t a fan of the no dance-off setup, saying:

In the first Strictly Come Dancing results show of 2010 Goldie was voted off, becoming the first celebrity to leave the competition.
Having had the first week to impress the judges and receive their vote, this week saw the audience have the final say as to who remained. And this time there was no dance off and no chance for the judges to save a couple. Couples danced either a salsa or a foxtrot.
The judges’ scores left Ann Widdecombe and Anton Du Beke at the bottom of the leaderboard but the combination of the judges’ scores and viewer votes meant Goldie and partner Kristina Rihanoff were eliminated.

Proving that reality TV can be a power for good, music star Goldie revealed that the shows he took part in helped him pay for his expensive divorce.
Goldie starred in Celebrity Big Brother and Maestro and told thelondonpaper: “It’s called paying for a divorce. Now I’ve paid, that’s it. Actually, I had another reason for going on Big Brother.
“I used to be a kid in a children’s home with 25 others who never knew who they were, so I thought it would be funny to see eight celebrities who all completely know who they are talk about how they don’t know who the f**k they are at all. I wanted to upset the apple cart.”
