Strictly viewers spotted Nicole Scherzinger getting salty with Tess Daly last night

Awkward!

Strictly viewers think they spotted something very odd during last night’s episode. Yes, when Tess Daly went to join Nicole Scherzinger in the audience, audience members all noticed the former Pussycat Doll muttering something under her breath at the host. For the Halloween special, Lauren was to perform to Nicole’s hit song, Poison, so naturally, Tess decided to introduce the performance from the seat next to Nicole’s. In a super quick moment that many viewers might have missed, Nicole reportedly told Tess to move away and Twitter lit up.

“Any lipreaders able to work out what Nicole Scherzinger is saying to Tess?” one viewer asked. “Looks a lot like ‘don’t sit so close to me’.”

@bbcstrictly Did anyone else notice Nicole Scherzinger @NicoleScherzy say to Tess Daly 'Don't sit so close to me' right as the cameras cut to Tess to introduce the last dance? Wow. #Strictly

I’m still trying to work out exactly what she said. Got the impression it was along the lines of that or you’re on my dress... ?

Yes, it was seriously awkward viewing but obviously, we’ve rewatched it 20 times. Nicole was also sat next to former bandmate Kimberley Wyatt who were both there cheering on fellow Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts.
