SHE’S shown off her judging prowess on BBC1’s The Greatest Dancer, so it’s no surprise that Strictly Come Dancing bosses screen-tested Oti Mabuse as a judge.
She’s proved her judging abilities on the Beeb’s Greatest Dancer, but politics have prevented Oti Mabuse from taking a seat on the Strictly judging panel
A telly source said: “The move would have caused uproar among the cast – it would be one thing giving Anton the role, but Oti is still fledgling in her career.
“The thought was that the other dances wouldn’t react well to Oti being a judge. She is popular, but if the dynamic changed and she went from being one of them into another role on the show it’s likely that this would cause friction and upset.
