Same Sex Male Couples On Strictly, Do They Both Need To Be Gay?

If the male celebrity is gay, surely the professional dancer also needs to be gay or there can be no chemistry between them.

Oo-er!!!

Johannes Radebe, who is a gay professional dancer, is partnered with Annabel Croft, a straight woman ... I hope this helps.

Jayde Adams is not straight.

Does it actually matter?

Does it really matter?

Men dance, women dance, women dance with women. men dance with men.

Does there need to be chemistry for it to work?

Surely the dancing is judged on their ability to dance?

Andy, I wasn't copying you, I posted before I saw what you had put.

Not necessarily though I think it might help. The male pairing this year will be interesting. The professional dancer, Nikita Kuzmin, most certainly isn't gay, Layton Williams describes himself as queer.
