Shirley Ballas faced accusations of “underscoring” Angela Scanlon, a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing, during Saturday’s live episode. Angela and her partner Carlos Gu performed the Charleston to “Who’s Got The Pain?” from the film Damn Yankees for Movie Week. While the other judges all gave Angela a score of nine, Shirley gave her an eight. This incident followed criticism last week when Shirley gave low scores to three female celebrities, and last year, when she was involved in a sexism controversy for favoring male contestants. Viewers took to Twitter to express their views on Shirley’s score for Angela, with some accusing her of being biased against young women. Shirley was also criticized last year for favoring male stars on the show, and some viewers even called for her to be fired. Shirley has previously revealed that she sought counseling due to the abuse she received during the last series of Strictly Come Dancing. She has returned as a judge for the 2023 series despite considering not coming back.
