Same-sex dancing partners have been commonplace for much longer on the UK\u2019s Strictly Come Dancing<\/em><\/strong>.  This season brings us Layton Williams <\/strong>\u2013 known in the UK from many TV and West End productions.  His partner is the delicious Nikita Kuzmin <\/strong>\u2013 who is straight, but we\u2019re not holding that against him (he also gets blonder every week).  Their dances have routinely been showstoppers.  It\u2019s certainly been a banner season for Nikita, who got to open a recent show paired with fellow pro, the stunning Vito Coppola<\/strong>, in a mesmerizing same-sex love story set to \u201cSomething Just Like This\u201d.  It brought down the house.  Kuzmin was born in Ukraine and raised in Italy (where he trained alongside Coppola).  When his parents showed up to see him in the studio, he got choked up.  \u201cIn the end, I\u2019m just a kid from Ukraine who\u2019s just living his dream.\u201d  Clips can be found on our website.<\/p>\n

All this chit-chat about Strictly<\/em> was sparked by an Ask Billy<\/em><\/strong> question worthy of answering in print.  Jared <\/strong>from London asks: \u201cAre you watching <\/em>Strictly?  What do you think of Bobby<\/strong>?  I\u2019m sure you saw his package on the Halloween episode.  It\u2019s made all the papers here.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Now you\u2019ve got my attention, and I tuned in.  Bobby Brazier <\/strong>is a 20-year-old, mop-topped, lanky lad best known for his role on the UK soap EastEnders<\/em><\/strong>.  He is the son of a contestant on the 2003 edition of Big Brother <\/em><\/strong>UK<\/em><\/strong>\u2026so he was basically born into reality television.  In the Halloween episode, his pants weren\u2019t extraordinarily tight.  But as the dance went on, a large, bulbous mass worked its way against his left thigh.  It was so distracting that Shirley Ballas <\/strong>(Mark<\/strong>\u2019s mum) seemed speechless.  Even the typically unflappable Craig Revel Horwood <\/strong>appeared somewhat flapped.  He kept his comments to the dancing, but added, \u201cIs there anything that bottom of yours can\u2019t do?\u201d  According to all the media reports, the BBC <\/em>was flooded with phone calls.  Most were in favor of the bouncing bulge, while there were a few dissenters.  You can check it out for yourself on BillyMasters.com<\/u><\/strong><\/a>.  <\/p>\n

When we\u2019re topping the leaderboard with someone\u2019s bottom, we\u2019ve definitely come to the end of yet another column.  I should mention that Brazier danced to \u201cCome On-a My House\u201d.  But not the Rosemary Clooney <\/strong>version.  This rendition was sung by Della Reese<\/strong>.  Who knew?  For more useless bits and bobs, check out www.BillyMasters.com<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 the site that\u2019ll give you more than candy.  If you have a question, dash it off to Billy@BillyMasters.com<\/a><\/strong> and I promise to get back to you before I plan my next trip to the UK.  So, until next time, remember, one man\u2019s filth is another man\u2019s bible.<\/p>\n
