In a devastating turn of events, Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> star La Voix<\/a> has had to withdraw from the competition.<\/p>\n It was confirmed earlier this week that the Drag Race icon would not be performing in Blackpool<\/a> due to an injury.<\/p>\n As per the BBC<\/a> show\u2019s rules, she received a bye to the next week<\/a>.<\/p>\n In a statement released at the time, La Voix, 45, said: \u2018My heart truly breaks knowing I won\u2019t be dancing in such an iconic venue.\u2019<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tGet personalised updates on Strictly\t\t\t<\/p>\n Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro\u2019s TV Newsletter.<\/p>\n Sign up to our newsletter<\/a> and then select your show in the link we\u2019ll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you.<\/p>\n However, as hosts Tess Daly<\/a> and Claudia Winkleman<\/a> opened Saturday\u2019s show, live from the Tower Ballroom, viewers were given a sad update.<\/p>\n \u2018You may have heard, La Voix sustained an injury, meaning that she can\u2019t dance in Blackpool tonight,\u2019 Tess began.<\/p>\n \t\t \u2018And following further advice from our medical team, we can now confirm she has very sadly had to withdraw from the competition.\u2019<\/p>\n Cameras then cut to La Voix in the audience, looking deeply upset as the audience applauded her.<\/p>\n Claudia further informed fans that the performer and her pro, Alja\u017e \u0160korjanec, will be interviewed during tomorrow night\u2019s results show.<\/p>\n Taking to her Instagram feed after the news aired, La Voix posted a message, explaining that, \u2018after all week of hoping, healing, and doing everything I possibly could, my injury simply hasn\u2019t improved the way we prayed it would\u2019.<\/p>\n \u2018I\u2019m absolutely devastated to withdraw from Strictly Come Dancing,\u2019 she wrote.<\/p>\n \u2018This isn\u2019t the glittering exit I ever imagined, and it breaks my heart to feel like I\u2019m letting people down. My spirit wanted to keep dancing but my foot has other ideas!<\/p>\n \u2018Thank you for every cheer, every vote, and every sparkle of support \u2013 it\u2019s meant the world to me.\u2019<\/p>\n She signed off: \u2018This isn\u2019t the ending I imagined, but I\u2019ll cherish this forever.\u2019<\/p>\n The entertainer added in her lengthy caption that Strictly has been \u2018one of the most extraordinary experiences of my life\u2019.<\/p>\n \u2018My only sadness is that I won\u2019t be able to continue the journey the way I so wished I could,\u2019 she penned, adding to her partner: \u2018What upsets me most is feeling like I\u2019ve let my wonderful partner, Alja\u017e \u0160korjanec, down. <\/p>\n \u2018He has supported me, encouraged me, and believed in me from day one, and I so desperately wanted to keep dancing for him as much as for myself.\u2019<\/p>\n \u2018To my fellow contestants \u2014 keep sparkling. To everyone who has supported me, voted for me, and sent such kind messages: thank you. Your love has lifted me more than you know,\u2019 she concluded.<\/p>\n \t\t La Voix \u2013 real name Christopher Dennis \u2013 was inundated with lovely messages in the comments, with Karen Hauer writing: \u2018It won\u2019t be the same without you beautiful .. \ud83e\udd7a\u2665\ufe0flove you lots\u2019.<\/p>\n \u2018Listen my darling, everything happens for a reason and you did what you came to do: you made a difference. I love you, WE love you\u2026. Now heal!\u2019, commented Michelle Visage.<\/p>\n In more unexpected news, this weekend\u2019s results will look a little different from normal.<\/p>\n Much to the surviving contestants\u2019 joy, it has been decided that no one will be eliminated this Sunday.<\/p>\n \u2018This year, Blackpool is going to be even more special,\u2019 Tess informed them. \u2018Listen up, everyone, because we have an announcement.<\/p>\n \u2018We can confirm no one will be leaving Strictly this weekend.\u2019<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t \t\t As the cast celebrated and hugged one another, safe in the knowledge that there would be no dance-off tomorrow, the ballroom erupted into cheers.<\/p>\n It comes after several other stars had to withdraw from Strictly this year, the first being Game of Thrones actor Kristian Nairn, who pulled out before the launch show had even been filmed.<\/p>\n Dani Dyer later suffered a foot injury, forcing her out and Amber Davies in, along with Kristian\u2019s replacement, Lewis Cope<\/a>.<\/p>\n The drama didn\u2019t end there, as Neighbours legend Stefan Dennis, who was paired with pregnant pro Dianne Buswell, also had to bow out of the contest due to a torn calf.<\/p>\n This makes La Voix the fourth celebrity to withdraw from Strictly 2025 alone.<\/p>\n And while fans are devastated that she is no longer part of the series lineup, confirmation that there will be no elimination this weekend was warmly received.<\/p>\n \u2018NO ELIMINATION OH MY GODDDDDD THANK GOD\u2019, wrote @c3roline.<\/p>\n \u2018i am sobbing my eyes out at their live reactions to no elimination, that\u2019s one of my favourite strictly moment ever\u2019, @Kaaaaatie_x added on X.<\/p>\n \t\t \u2018So glad there will be no elimination this week! Was really hoping they\u2019d make this decision after La Voix had to withdraw. Absolutely fair to the remaining couples\u2019, penned @TheIceMaidenBrr.<\/p>\n The public vote is still open this weekend and the judges will still score the routines as normal. All votes and scores will be carried over and combined to next week\u2019s totals.<\/p>\n And those fearing a gap in the TV schedule tomorrow night needn\u2019t fear either, because the results show will still air.<\/p>\n Instead of the dreaded dance-off and an emotional goodbye, it will consist of an all-star performance from some Strictly icons (Ashley Roberts, Danny Mac, Jay McGuiness, and Layton Williams), a pro routine, and a musical performance from Lewis Capaldi.<\/p>\n Strictly Come Dancing airs Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.<\/p>\n Got a story?<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk<\/a> entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff<\/a> page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n Arrow Arrow Arrow![\"For](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/SEI_273602568-293c.jpg\")
