YES JEANETTE!!! That lady is a QUEEN. Most incredible opener, made me cry my eyes out it was so good. 😭😭😭😭 Best series of Strictly so far, the standard has been amazing and I'm LOVING seeing new dance styles from the couples choice. Thank you BBC for giving us such joy in these strange and uncertain times. xxxxxxxxx
Shirley Ballas I'd 61 and she can still dance at competition standard. On TH-cam there are people in the 80 s& 90s dancing swing/jive. If your able to sing dance or anything else you want to do age doesn't matter
Love this. There's so many of them it almost seems like there's not enough room for all of them to dance though! lol. That ending from the pro salsa dancers was amazing though; where he kept spinning her and she kept getting lower and lower.
She's still got it, god bless her, that was amazing, I counted 32 dancers bravo bravo, you guys rocked with the best and nailed it. And the theater, it looked stunning.
This was great to see Gloria Estefan again! At least she sings great live. Most artist these days use auto tune and there is nothing left when it is not used. Or those fragille voices these days. Gloria has a voice and stands solid! Very reconizable while uuuuh most artist these days sounds kind of the same! I looooooooove Gloria Estefan. A legend!
This was amazing! Gloria and all of the other gorgeous dancers were fabulous of course; not to mention the stunning costumes! however, oh, my stars the dancers in the gold costumes stole the show! They are PHENOMEAL!
Grew up listening to Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine because of my dad and still love her to this day xx she’s amazing at any age xx but Janette eats this dance up I couldn’t watch anyone else xx gutted she left being a pro on the show she was my fave pro of all time xx still is
I really miss The Blackpool show and the pure energy from a packed crowd and huge number of dancers. Hopefully next year Covid restrictions will have fully eased and we can have this kind of electric atmosphere again.
Iv watched strictly since day one and this is the best ever opening for me..Johannes is on fire,amazing dancer,hopefully we see him with a partner next year.
Yes one of the most powerfull pro routines with Gloria singing not taking away anything from her own two amazing dancers but it was Stricklys Jannette Manrara who performed that death defying drop with actor Jake from eastenders a few years baxk ? its all good and so so very inspirational there should be a DVD of these classic rourines ?
Blessed to have toured with Gloria and the Miami Sound Machine back in the day. Some people forget the horrendous accident she experienced in 1990 and that doctors had told her she'd never walk again. She is amazing.
Les Scudamore thank you! There's a video of Kevin and Karen teaching the step funnily enough and I've seen it before but never put two and two together!
gaming grace Coco uncle Bob and Auntie Stella was Gloria’s dad Uncle Raymonds sister from Yorkshire that went to live in Blackpool. His other brother Dennis stayed in Yorkshire.
Dianne is so talented amazing lovely funny smart and gorgeous but it would be nice for Dianne to lead a dance and stay at the front like the rest do Dianne needs more credit for what she does
debbie peter I think mark jacques only remembers Gloria when she was young and he was going out with her in Blackpool and baby sitting me as a child. I used to play gooseberry lol 😂
The couple in gold are 'Karen y Ricardo'! 9x World Salsa Champions!! Watch their World of Dance routines.. it'll blow your mind!!
IKR!! They are mind bogglingly good
What a awesome accomplishment with these pro dancers and the celebs alongside with these guys from 'World of Dance' .. and of course, Gloria! 😊
Why they don't teach the pros more of the salsa in a more Latin way that is awesome
My fave part @ 0:44 - those Batucadas during the intro on stage. loved it. High Energy Megamix from Gloria.x
1:54 *SHOW EVERYBODY HOW IT'S DONE JOHANNES!!!* 😍😍
Absolutely loved this routine and the incorporation of the celebs into the dance was so good!!!
No
Krystyna Szydłowska what do you mean no
@@ratbat3811 Well, the celebs didn't really do that much dancing.
Fantastic that Gloria sang live with the band, the only star to do it, usually mime or sing to a backing track, still a star Gloria

Janette is Queen . x
She my favourite
Can you believe that Gloria Estefan is 61 now? Yet she can still sing and move as though she were decades younger. You go, Gloria!
Praise her the Latino queen!!🙏🙌💃
Shirley Ballas I'd 61 and she can still dance at competition standard. On TH-cam there are people in the 80 s& 90s dancing swing/jive. If your able to sing dance or anything else you want to do age doesn't matter
Yeah, she still looks great, she is stil vital and energetic! :))
WOW!!!!!!!!! Absolutely wonderful performance by the one and only Gloria Estefan and the dancers. Well done!
Love this. There's so many of them it almost seems like there's not enough room for all of them to dance though! lol. That ending from the pro salsa dancers was amazing though; where he kept spinning her and she kept getting lower and lower.
IKR!! Incredible dancers 👌
oti is just fire .....love her
& with those gorgeous long legs of hers, she really kicks ass in the batacudas move!!! 👌🔥
She's still got it, god bless her, that was amazing, I counted 32 dancers bravo bravo, you guys rocked with the best and nailed it. And the theater, it looked stunning.

I loved Blackpool so much but can we just talk about how Johannes was just living his best life at Blackpool!!
Gloria eres sencillamente una gran MUJER... Te amamos desde tu tierra...
I really miss The Blackpool show and the pure energy from a packed crowd and huge number of dancers. Hopefully next year Covid restrictions will have fully eased and we can have this kind of electric atmosphere again.
Glorious Gloria
This is for me the best dance pro with the queen of Gloria Estefan
The Miami Hit Mix! Top Ten hit in December 1992!!
Just look at Giovanni his face is a picture, he can't quite believe he's dancing so close to Gloria Esterfan. Giovanni is wonderful.
Gloria sounded great!
Iv watched strictly since day one and this is the best ever opening for me..Johannes is on fire,amazing dancer,hopefully we see him with a partner next year.
+JJ Johannes has had 4 celebs dancing with him. Catherine Tyldsley in 2019. Caroline Quentin in 2020. John Whaite in 2021. And Ellie Taylor 2022

Love that Neil got so much camera time here, he deserves it- such a great dancer
Blessed to have toured with Gloria and the Miami Sound Machine back in the day. Some people forget the horrendous accident she experienced in 1990 and that doctors had told her she'd never walk again. She is amazing.
karen y ricardo the best....viva chile.
Gio and Johannes always killed it
I still think this is the best strictly pro dancer EVER by a country mile. Gutted it hasn't gone viral!

3:56 Awesome!
Karen & Ricardo are amazing...this whole performance was gret
🙌🙌🙌🙌Gloria 🙌she is the queen!!!!
Absolutely amazing in every way!!!👏👏👏
When will dianne have a lead 😫😫
Catty Ashley, I think normally when they're voted out with their partners, I don't think that's gonna happen at the moment.
Ninja Goat In that case Dianne will never be the lead because Joe is going to *WIN* 🤗
she was with kevin for 'shotgun'
Mamma Mia group dance xx
Timber Affen she wasn’t really the lead in that she was at the back 80% of the time she only had the beginning and the end
What is the step at 0:45 that the girls do called? Have wanted to know for ages!!!
I think it's a batacudas, it's a fab move!!
Les Scudamore thank you! There's a video of Kevin and Karen teaching the step funnily enough and I've seen it before but never put two and two together!
Batucada.123 pump 567 pump , Turn 2 Turn 4 Turn 6 Turn and .x

karen y rodrigo world championship salsa. chilean 🇨🇱
Who’s the guy in the gold?
How come Greyham is at 3:08 and so is Lauren at 3:17
All the celebs (unprofessional dancers) came out in the end because it was blackpool
gaming grace Coco uncle Bob and Auntie Stella was Gloria’s dad Uncle Raymonds sister from Yorkshire that went to live in Blackpool. His other brother Dennis stayed in Yorkshire.
Somebody knows when is the final prime ?
Praise God, praise Him!!
Jesus’s love for you is unexplainable, repent and trust Him
Me too!
Aljaz 3:10 - 3:19 😱😱😱 the best

gloria estefan looks like what ever happen to baby jane why do they mess about with there faces she looks 80 now
what a waste of time who danced first like which couple
Your mum danced first and she was eliminated ! boo hoo.
the dancing was brill but unfortunately the singing left a bit to be desired.
Showing her age with all that flab.
What the hell are you talking about? First if all she isn't even big, secondly she is going to look older since is IS OLDER!!!
oh i bet you're a joy at parties
