Strictly 's head judge Shirley Ballas has hit back at allegations of sexism after saying that she would have saved Richie Anderson over Fleur East at the weekend.
The judge, 62, was hit with a wave of anger from fans over some of her critical comments about the female celebs at the weekend, particularly of Ellie Taylor.
Even pro dancer Nikita Kuzmin appeared to call out Shirley over the remarks, while some viewers even demanded Shirley was sacked.
