Strictly Come Dancing professional Karen Hauer has spoken out following her first live performance of the BBC dance competition with celebrity partner Paul Merson
Karen Hauer has opened up about her first Strictly Come Dancing performance with Paul Merson . The pro dancer didn't shy away from admitting that their song choice for the first week of the BBC dance-off was a bit of a challenge. After last weekend's pre-recorded launch show, the competition officially got underway on Saturday 21 September, marking the first time the celebs and their professional dance partners strutted their stuff together.
However, during and after their debut live performance, viewers took to social media in droves to criticise the song choice for Paul and Karen's inaugural series performance. Posting snaps of the duo in action, as well as a post-show picture with Karen's rugby star beau Simon Davidson and Paul's wife Kate Merson, Karen wrote: "Not only was last night fun but this guy is the real deal! Focused, hard-working and committed... whilst at the same time bringing a sense of humour and enjoyment to the whole process. I couldn't be happier to have Merse as my partner. See you all next Saturday.
