The performance was well-received by the judges in general, however. Shirley Ballas told AJ her family would be so proud of her, while Anton Du Beke praised their powerful start to the routine.
Craig Revel Horwood was a big fan, saying: "You did brilliantly. The routine is so incredibly difficult. The arms are a little bit messy technically when you go into your turns. But how you do that, darling, is completely beyond me."

Speaking in a new interview with Grazia, AJ expressed surprise at their allegations, stating: "I have the least experience of everyone. Even Tom [Fletcher] has been to stage school.
"At weddings, I'm always the first person up on the dance floor; I don't mind making a fool of myself. I think that's what I'm bringing to the table: shamelessness! I'm bringing you shameless energy – that's all I've got to give."
