Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev - Rumba - Strictly Come Dancing - Week 11 - Long Edit - HD

[@posypoodle6034]

Keep coming back to this rumba, just sublime, no tricks, special effects, just the dance of love x

[@mferraro8737]

Keep coming back to this dance of Artem and Kara . The best rumba ever in Strictly Come Dancing x

[@chijavier1869]

Still the perfect Rumba all these years for me!❤

[@xMissxUKx1]

Will always be my favourite rumba on strictly ❤ beautiful and the connection between them! It’s a shame they didn’t work out in the end. Xxxx

[@zxaddictxz]

Golden standard here. Kara was born to dance. And what do we have in the 2024 semi-final? One contestant who stomps like a bear in every dance and the other one who trips over his own foot, both ardently supported both by the judges (with the exception of Craig) and by fans who cannot tell Samba from Rumba...

[@scarletteloise2737]

i forever come back to this routine, and all of hers to be honest. kara is easily one of the greatest strictly contestants to grace the floor. this should've easily been a ten come on craig, genuinely didn't see both feet leave the floor.

[@bigrobfm]

Sensual or what?! Amazing Rumba!

[@urfavflickerplayer]

This is probably Strictly’s best rumba! And the dress is beautiful! 10!! ❤️

[@lorrainet7298]

The best strictly contestant ever, and probably the most undermarked.

[@agatamoroz5008]

I will never get bored of watching this dance! A spectacular rumba!

[@screechowl79]

I dont usually like the rumba, it always seems like walking and posing, but this one is gorgeous! Their chemistry is amazing!

[@mareklukac2010]

I still don't understand why she is not famous. She is perfect!!!

[@chijavier268]

2020'and Still The Best Rumba on SCD ever!!!

[@JohnSmith-nm4zd]

Best rumba ever!

[@yunuspatel5192]

Best rumba dance to good extraordinary kara.love it I watch every time.thanks you so much

[@Fatima502]

We don't have uncomplicated dances like that on Strictly any more. If they were competing in 2019, the start and the end would be set in a medium sized fish & chip shop.

[@strictlyfan0130]

they always used props this year lol, they still have authentic rumbas (kelvins in 2019)

[@jetsofaqua2206]

😂😂

[@Fatima502]

​@@strictlyfan0130 You mean they didn't start on bench / garden swing / dressing table etc?

[@MLTapp]

I rarely agree with Alesha Dixon, but that dance definitely moved me emotionally.. absolutely gorgeous.

[@cjava2130]

Still the best competitive rumba there's ever been on Strictly. (James and Ola had the best pro one!)

[@yazzy4916]

My favourite couple on strictly. She's beautiful and he is handsome. Amazing

[@badjemima]

Stunning. Always makes me cry, it's so beautiful.

[@helenkirby7081]

Rumba is called “The dance of love” and if any rumba summed that up it’s this one for sure ❤

[@xoxsweetiexpiexox]

How did this not make the top 25

[@jeremypeprah4211]

Best rumba on strictly ever

[@tantrumnikki007]

This is my favourite dance EVER.

[@IX19UT8O]

That was absolutely beautiful. Len is correct, no celebrity amatuer dancer should have danced it so technically beautifully. Sorry folks this is my very first time watching SCD. Now that I get BBC here in the states, I will watch SCD over DWTS.

[@yvonnebarker8732]

just breathtaking x

[@CollD0ll]

Should have been a perfect score!!! Best rumba in strictly history and probably even in DWTS history!!

[@rickbarbera7721]

I'd really like to see the performance that guy Craig would award a 10. This was gorgeous, sensual and so well performed. Kara may be the best non pro dancer I've ever seen. I am a DWTS guy and always thought that Meryl Davis was the best contestant dancer ever, followed closely by Katherine Jenkins, but Kara is beyond compare. She should have had at least 4 perfect scores. So glad I discovered these SCD tubes.

[@blahdlah1920]

From a technical standpoint, I'd say Mya and Nicole Scherzinger were the strongest ever contestants on DWTS.

[@aaronwilkins4459]

Lets face it- we can hardly say that Meryl is a non-dancer. Katherine Jenkins wouldnt even come into the top 20 females for me across all SCD/DWTS series. 't blah Dlah below, Rumour Willis and Bindi Irwin were the best DWTS contestants ever since they had no prior dance training

[@aaronwilkins4459]

Also from an SCD perspective, its difficult to suggest that any female contestant was more naturally prepared for every single performance than Alesha Dixon

[@blahdlah1920]

+Aaron Wilkins Rumer did have training though, since she went to a performing arts school. At the very least she would have taken ballet, tap and jazz for a couple years. Bindi definitely did have natural ability, but you could see that Derek hid her flaws well with choreo.

[@jetsofaqua2206]

Well it would be this without the lift as he said. Rumba isn’t supposed to have lifts but rules are boring

[@priestcraft1]

Kara and Artem dance with so much passion. you can see the look in their eyes how much they care for each other. they are a beautiful couple, and they are both lucky to have found each other.

[@prettyyoungthingpyt5015]

7 years later, they are history!!!! Life truly is funny!! So many twists and turns!!!!

[@idesireit31]

Best Rumba ever !!!

[@TrueBagPipeRock]

It was hot. well done. You could feel it.

[@prettyyoungthingpyt5015]

I love her as Dawn on Eastenders. She has come a long way since. Unfortunately, we don't get strictly here in the States. We hardly get any British shows or comedys!!!! Boo!!!!

[@darrensmith4944]

That Rumba was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and deserved a perfect score of 40! Still haven't forgiven Craig for not giving it a 10! Kara still my all time favourite celeb in Strictly!

[@0191Marko]

Darren Smith have to agree, keep coming back to this because I haven’t seen a dance since this that compares, the wife is sick of me saying that nothing compares to this 😁

[@Mcsam6661]

kept revisiting this to see where the lift was and it took me ages to find it, but he was right. there was a lift in there

[@rachelbircher6943]

So well choreographed

[@BobLorrimer]

I absolutely agree.....it is so wonderful to watch....it's torment!

[@beatricewood3586]

Best Rumba ever

[@mags62ish]

They dance so beautifully together.

[@DianaHrt]

Higher standards and higher expectations on SCD. It's the original and best!

[@justme2012lena]

Fantastic!!

[@joannenoon8017]

Stunning

[@misslday9848]

First time seeing this and damn strictly doesn't make them like this anymore

[@50kevind]

Maybe because there hasn’t been a celebrity who was capable of doing it this good since Kara.

[@UKCALLING99]

best comment on strictly ever, do me a favour! you're not supposed to dance that well.. lol classic len

[@leighsaunderson9203]

Same as when they aired, I watch their Argentine Tango , and it's my fave, then I watch this, and I'm torn between the two !

[@zapkvr]

First time I saw Kara was Graeme Norton. She's lovely

[@paulbeddoes2268]

she danced that so well.. 😊✌💗👍

[@Fatima502]

It was a great performance, but also enhanced greatly by having instrumental music. Singing would have distracted from the silky smooth moves.

[@debbiethomas3687]

Kind of ironic dancing the Rumba to Samba Pa Ti, but yes, sometimes all the elements come together and when they do they create something utterly magical and memorable.

[@ELEKTRARE]

Tara dances like a godesss

[@michawill6599]

Still watching in 2017?

[@randomsheep1165]

Mich Abing me lol

[@justynazokiewska8223]

Yan Chan I'm quite sure they are not togheter anymore.

[@scarletteloise2737]

Mich Abing you know it-nothing compares to this

[@justynazokiewska8223]

Yan Chan i was referring to him and Torrey

[@debbiethomas3687]

Yes, and in 2019.

[@NigelT57]

Bruce - 'Fabulous singers' - after an instrumental.

[@xMissxUKx1]

😂😂

[@handbagsdiscount]

yes - looks like a happy ending. Lovely couple

[@taliaperumal5661]

This Song !

[@UKCALLING99]

And she's from southend on sea Esse... love

[@carolinebrierley-lewis8838]

Still the best couple on strictly xx

[@mosesisko4327]

Can't wait for season 29

[@Negin231]

thanks:)

[@SamMitchell90]

Kara and Artem to win!! She's almost as good as Alesha. She HAS to win!

[@louricquincyrankine2062]

HOW DID YOU GET SCD! HOW DO YOU GET IT! TELL ME PLEASE I'VE BEEN DYING TO GET IT FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS! I LIVE IN AMERICA!!!

[@susanmcadam9794]

Why were they not mentioned on 20 year special?? Or did I miss it?

[@loringfc6974]

Where was the lift

[@yvonnebarker8732]

should have been 4 tens!!really x

[@LoveLiyah849]

that will forever annoy me! How could Craig be soo wrong, the lift made it even more sensual!

[@aaronwilkins4459]

it was the best rumba they have ever had but they annoyed me- knowing that Craig brought up the lift rule, why did they not correct it for when they repeated it in the final! Ridiculous. It did not deserve 4 tens if they had a lift and did not correct it for the next time

[@qrstuv9558]

Sucks Artem can’t show off what he can do like what he did on Strictly cuz dwts usually gives him sucky partners. Tbh I kinda wished he stayed on Strictly. Dwts doesn’t deserve his amazing talent!

[@Negin231]

are they still going out??

[@His_Weirdness]

Can i please have the song name❤

[@ca1.1um]

Beautiful, her feet left the floor several times though I thought🤔😘

[@tambragander2877]

What is this song? ❤

[@kekekreuk]

if i didn't already know this was Kara, i would've thought she was Chrissy Teigen - John Legend's fiance. practically twins with Kara's hair extensions.

[@JustGeeTee]

2:21-2:38 2:47-3:07 3:34-3:48

[@windowsblind]

Anyone know the name of the tune that they dance to?

[@philipxhsmx]

the song is a new version of a song called Samba Pa Ti ...even though its a Rumba confusing but there u go :-)

[@philipxhsmx]

well excuse me for trying to be helpful ..i only said it was new cos it was a but done by a live band jeeze ...i only commented cos no one replied to this guys question

[@jeremypeprah4211]

I saw the lift

[@rayson700]

Yes. You are right 1/2 an inch. Wow.

[@charlie1013629]

@MrNK2 thankyou!

[@charlie1013629]

what is the song called that starts at 0:26?! :)

[@Fjarskafinn]

Yes :)

[@MrNK2]

@charlie1013629 I think it's Cosmic Love by Florence and the Machine.

[@carolinewhitaker967]

My style, Helen Artem Oliver Dowden lol 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@Stanisyeung]

y len n bruno but no carrie ann?

[@jaime5346]

Samba pa ti.....Santana

[@TheTongapuss]

Because Carrie Anne judges the American version and not the British version.

[@phalyack40]

@shaz5566 Me too!!

[@rpradit]

Too much dramatical dance but less rumba characture

[@joannenoon8017]

Wow no bl.... wonder they were lovers

[@amynutter5050]

Pease make strictly like it was when kara and Artem won then you could recognise the dance until gio and rose won everything as changed even the costumes not a glamorous to meny unrecognisable dances and please stop this kicks and flix which ever judge locked on to that idea should watch old films because that is when you can see they don't come into t jive at

[@amynutter5050]

atall

[@fredtatasciore3405]

9

[@Negin231]

:)

[@lg296]

Not quite as good as Rachel and Vincent's Rumba. Kara did lose her balance at one point. Second best Rumba of the whole series.

[@Negin231]

:)

[@mmmmCinnamon]
