JB Gill and Lauren Oakley Salsa to Red Alert by Basement Jaxx ✨ BBC Strictly 2024

[@killermcmurderer6707]

The first time that a male celebrity has gotten a perfect score in a salsa in 18 years on strictly ❤🎉

[@hachik0511]

Didn’t Claudia say 6 years?

[@gabsymalone6307]

@@hachik0511 Ashley Roberts got a 40 six years ago in the final for her Dirty Dancing Salsa, but the last male was Mark Ramprakash back in Series 4 who got a perfect Salsa score in the final. So both sides are right :).

[@ashddd]

What about Hamza?

[@mateuszkuchnecki]

@@ashdddhe never got a 40, both times it was a 39

[@joshjones5062]

I can think of other Salsa over the years who were more deserving of 40 though. As great as this was.

[@daniellebelisle2446]

I loved JB and Amy as a duo, though I have to say, JB and Lauren are ELECTRIC!

[@EthanBell-h5x]

This was incredible. So much energy, amazing timing, amazing synchronicity. It was just perfection. This is how you do a salsa! So glad JB got 40. 10

[@hollymatton474]

This salsa was iconic! JB and Lauren were amazing and so deserve a place in the final! ❤❤

[@ME-Oxon]

Definitely a 10. He was amazing - so flexible, and Lauren is like rubber. JB has gone up a gear the past few weeks, which is great approaching the final.

[@gemstar7286]

His hips 😮😂🎉😁🙌🔥 wow amazing performance true winner 🏆.

[@lisaR.3]

JB is my winner 💯 he’s so talented! LOVED this salsa it was so fun 🤩

[@MandaWard71]

What a beautiful dance to a legendary song

[@AlisonGoodair-og4fn]

JB and Lauren spiced up my evening without question my favourite dance 💃 of the night!! Finalists signed, sealed and delivered 🤩🤩🤩

[@halflink]

JB and Lauren totally smashed both of their dances tonight 👏

[@ThePixey1000]

So did some of the other

[@halflink]

Yep, but this is the video of JB and Lauren, so I left this comment for the people who feature in this video 😀

[@JoyA.-yg4gc]

JB is my winner. He and Lauren are a fantastic team

Red demons on the dancefloor! JB and Lauren nailed Salsa!

[@EchizenNanjirou]

My favorite dance of the series so far!!!

[@Oskar903]

Dance of the season. WOW!

[@RoseTylerxx]

This might have just secured them the title! Dance of the night! JB and Lauren to win the Glitterball!

[@user-cl8xh6bc9y]

Yes! Yes! YES! This was awesome!!🎉

[@michaelvega6646]

A perfect 40 Salsa, and Lauren's first perfect 40, I do see them in the final. And if he wins he'll be the first celebrity to win the show after switching dance partners mid season. And Lauren will have her first win

[@ead9726]

Beautiful, that is real dancing. I admit I do not watch Strictly for a number of reasons, but I watch Chris and Diane in YT.

[@KayleighGabe]

Jb by far the best celeb dancer in strictly this year and Lauren by far best pro dancer 🎉🎉🎉

[@the5thjudge]

Our scores: Me: 10 Diya: 10 Kelsey: 10 Owen: 10 40/40 What dance pills were in JB’s birthday cake? This is insane, he’s never looked so at ease, he clearly enjoyed every second as did I. I said after his samba that salsa would suit him, I was right. His rhythm, footwork, lifts, everything is just as it should be. I would be absolutely gobsmacked if he doesn’t make the final.

[@rebeccablanche6183]

I hope he gets into the final 😊😊

[@gillianlaing1073]

Brilliant

[@juliethorpe2739]

THE BEST ❤

[@Dilydaydream1]

Joyous

[@bessieburnet9816]

Yes! Amazing, just like Tasha's Salsa! Look at those lifts!! Loved the retro feel to this!! JB may be a Ballroom Boy, but this hips are made for Latin! About time he get a 40. Bout time another couple get a 40. Well deserved!

[@maisieallen7185]

bloody brilliant.

[@pennyandfishy7241]

Score - *10* After JB's Samba I had high expectations for this and they just ended up being exceeded, this was fantastic, his hip action and solo sections were unbelievable, it had the beautiful armography that I thought was missing in Tasha's dance, I loved the vibe of this and the relaxed cuban motion that they brought, it was a real classic Salsa with a hip hop twist. It really was something to see!! I think his place in the final is 100% secured after these dances, his energy and confidence is off the scale

[@whippedforJungkookiee]

JB ftw!!!

[@neatania]

I really enjoy watching JB and Lauren dance. I'm going to vote for them on Saturday. Please vote for JB and Lauren on Strictly Come Dancing, everyone. Thank you.

[@kristinejarvis4003]

Great dance❤

Fantastic

[@amabelbarlow8046]

WOOHOO! JB and Lauren were on FIRE!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏👏 I'm also happy they got their 1st 40, better than a slap in the face! ❤❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@JONAS-co4ut]

JB, Sarah and Chris for the final!

[@heidiblades4811]

This was FABULOUS!!! These two deserve a place in the final end of

[@theanonymous1857]

I support JB from the beginning, he always take on board what the judge criticise with the right attitude , such a nice personality . Go on JB you can do it !!! And look at him.

[@patienceboafo1998]

Lauren is my favourite professional after oti left 😅👌

[@JoyA.-yg4gc]

Mine too

[@hennyhound]

JB is getting better and better. He's got it all going on. Great pairing - I hope they win.

[@PatrickOkane-o1s]

I'm speechless

[@AnnaFischer-ne6qm]

Super spicy and so energetic! I personally thought this should've got 39 and the Paso 40, but honestly JB is truly deserving of being a finalist and even winning! Lauren and Amy should feel so proud, rooting for them to be through ❤

[@ravenclawrumba7096]

For me JB really owned the the night, this was amazing and the fact it's the first salsa in 6 years to get a 40 is proof for how spectacular this really is. 10/10

[@beverleymiddleton6120]

Doing it for all the Farmers out there.

I'm not big fan of this music for dancing a salsa, but this dance was phenomenal, JB and Lauren had a perfect score really well deserved 10/10 👌👏

The props and visual effects overwhelmed the dancing, rather than enhanced it.

[@meredithgrace4337]

Next is JB Gill and Lauren Oakley dancing their second dance The Salsa. I felt that this dance was less Salsa and more free style show dance however I enjoyed this dance more than their first and I thought it was really cool, well done to this pair.

[@LucaFelino]

WOW! WOWZEROONY, J.B. AND LAUREN!! 😃 WHAT a salsa THAT was!! 😃 Full of energy, flexibility and "red" hot spice! 😅 Get it? That really was the perfect salsa dance! And to one of my favourite songs, too! 😃 Love me a bit o' Basement Jaxx. 😁 I actually missed the Semi Final, last night, but I'll watch it later on iPlayer, so I can see it all for myself. 😁 Chris McCausland's still my favourite contestant this year and my overall winner, but J.B. Gill, Sarah Hadland and Tasha Ghouri are proving to be pretty tough competition for Chris. 😃 Pete Wicks ain't a bad dancer, either, but I think he should be out, next. No offence if you like Pete, but I think it'd only be fair if he went out, next, since he's not as good as Chris, J.B., Tasha and Sarah. 🙂 TBH, I don't think it's fair that Pete even got through to the Semi Final. He should've been eliminated LAST WEEK instead of Montell Douglas. But I guess it was just a very unfortunate turn of events with the public votes. If it'd been Montell and Pete in the dance off, Montell would've won and Pete would've been out, no question about it. But I ain't gonna waste yer time rantin about what could've been. I've already said enough as it is! 😅 LOL Best of luck, take care and have an absolutely fab-u-LOUS day, buddy! 😁👍✌️

[@sebastianlopez7373]

I would like that they danced salsa with proper music, because Salsa is the dance style that has more proper and original songs but they rarely performed with them 😔

[@robertpowell7228]

Preferred his first dance tbh but Lauren is the reason he's progressed

[@mel24681]

Great dance. JB really shook those Cuban dance moves. Not a pure Salso though? I was a bit distracted by the floor set and cg images. Too busy and took attention away from JB. His flexibility is much better now but I still feel he hasn't really let himself go completely. Lauren really complements him.

[@jeanlambert342]

Fantastic couple

Hardly any dancing

Find him boring, he only ever does fast dances

[@Liamxroberts]

He’s done waltz, American smooth, Foxtrot, Rumba, essentially all of the “slow” dances on the show.

Overmarked sadly 😢

No way!

Curious what you would mark him down for?

Overmarked.

Agreed

[@staygoldponyboy8881]

Yeah I thought his first dance, and the ones he's done the last 2 weeks for that matter, were better.

[@Bobisalive]

yeah, it was a good dance but not a 40

GO AWAY!!!!
