Layton Williams makes Strictly Come Dancing history again with incredible Salsa routine
Layton Williams has served another outstanding and historic performance on the latest episode of Strictly Come Dancing. For week five of the long-running competition, the West End talent and his partner Nikita Kuzmin turned up the heat with a sizzling Salsa routine to Johnny Pacheco & Celia Cruz’s ‘Quimbara.’ At the start of their performance, the pair are sitting in a colourful cantina before Kuzmin challenges Williams to a dance duel.
As the music builds, the two talents execute intricate moves to one-up/impress each other before launching into their electric routine, which was full of twists, turns and dips.
Toward the end of their performance, Williams and Kuzmim channelled their inner Johnny and Baby from Dirty Dancing with an epic lift that stunned audience members.
Like last week’s Cha Cha routine, the pair were treated to rapturous applause and rave reviews from the judges. “Listen, I went to Cuba, and I went to Club Tropicana, and I saw a show, and you guys, I could just steal you and put you in that show this incredible,” Motsi Mabuse exclaimed.
