Strictly star La Voix pulls out of Blackpool special
On Sunday, La Voix and Aljaz were saved by the public and avoided the dreaded bottom two. However, in an unfortunate update, it has been revealed that they will not perform during the show’s iconic Blackpool Week.
“Due to injury, La Voix has been advised by doctors to rest and, as a result, will not dance in this weekend’s Blackpool specials,” the BBC has confirmed.
“In line with the rules of Strictly Come Dancing, La Voix and Aljaž will receive a bye through to next week, when it is hoped they will be able to dance again. We wish La Voix the very best for a speedy recovery.”
La Voix has also issued a statement to fans.
“It is with immense sadness that I have to withdraw from this weekend’s Strictly Come Dancing shows in Blackpool. Due to an injury, I’ve been advised that I’m unable to perform, and my heart truly breaks knowing I won’t be dancing in such an iconic venue,” she said.
“Aljaž and I have worked incredibly hard, and we were so excited to share our routine with everyone. I am devastated not to be joining the rest of the cast on that famous dancefloor, but my focus now is on recovery. I’ll be cheering on all the amazing couples this weekend.”
