Strictly's Vito Coppola suffers VERY awkward wardrobe malfunction and is left desperately struggling...
Vito Coppola, a professional dancer from Strictly Come Dancing, experienced an embarrassing wardrobe mishap during the live finale on Saturday.
The 32-year-old dancer found himself in a tight spot, desperately trying to keep his pants from falling down after the button on his outfit appeared to burst during the American Smooth dance with Sarah Hadland, 53, known for her role in Miranda.
Even though the former champion was putting in maximum effort into his routine, he had to swiftly pull his hand back to his waist to prevent a potentially embarrassing situation.
After the dance, Sarah was in stitches when she figured out what had happened, and host Tess Daly, 55, chimed in, saying, "We've got a clothing mishap! Can you keep everything covered?"
With a chuckle, the dancer made every effort to hide the mistake as the judges rated the performance an outstanding 39 out of 40.
Strictly Come Dancing professional Vito Coppola experienced a rather embarrassing wardrobe mishap during the live finale this past Saturday.
The 32-year-old dancer found himself in a tricky situation, desperately trying to keep his pants up after the button on his costume appeared to come undone during his American Smooth performance with Sarah Hadland, 53, known for her role in "Miranda."
In this year's Strictly Come Dancing finale, Chris McCausland, JB Gill, Sarah Hadland, and Tasha Ghouri are competing for the chance to take home the glittering trophy.
Comedian Chris, making history as the first blind participant on the BBC show, along with his partner Dianne Buswell, is a clear favorite to take home the title after dazzling the judges with their remarkable performances.
The artist has been unable to see since his early 20s because of a genetic eye disorder known as retinitis pigmentosa. He has felt overwhelmed with emotion and brought to the brink of tears many times after receiving enthusiastic applause from his fans.
Last week, he and Dianne received a score of 36 out of 40 for their Viennese waltz set to Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters."
Friends of the CBeebies star gathered to cheer him on during the studio audience for the semi-final, and he confessed that having them there made him feel like an 'emotional wreck.'
He cautioned Claudia, saying, "Don't push my buttons; I'm really fragile tonight. I'm serious."
He mentioned, "You can tell you're onto something significant when your close friends don't tease you about it."
At the same time, Dianne reached out to the audience, explaining why she and Chris deserve to be in the finals this week. She expressed how incredibly proud she is of all that he has accomplished.
Even though the former champion was putting in a lot of effort during the routine, he had to quickly place his hand on his waist to prevent himself from looking embarrassed.
After the dance, Sarah burst into laughter when she figured out what had gone wrong, while host Tess Daly, 55, exclaimed, "We've got a wardrobe malfunction! Can you keep things under control?"
She mentioned, "I've been training Chris all along without any visual aids. He hasn't had the chance to review a video to check if he's performed well."
"He’s never had the chance to view his rivals or understand the competitive landscape, but he has truly embraced the essence of this performance. I couldn't be more proud of him."
In another part of the competition, JB Gill has experienced quite a journey after his previous partner, Amy Dowden, had to leave the show because of a foot injury.
The singer, currently dancing with Lauren Oakley, expressed his surprise and how challenging it was for him when Amy left the show after her collapse, just months after being declared cancer-free.
In an interview with MailOnline regarding his departure, he mentioned, "At first, I thought it was a setback, to be honest, since I was quite accustomed to dancing and collaborating with Amy."
This is an unprecedented event for Strictly Come Dancing.
Last week, he and Dianne received a score of 36 out of 40 for their Viennese waltz set to Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters," leaving the comedian nearly in tears.
The celebrity has been blind since his early 20s because of a genetic disorder known as retinitis pigmentosa. Chris has been truly amazed by the support he's received.
In another part of the competition, JB Gill has experienced quite a ride after his previous partner, Amy Dowden, had to withdraw from the show because of a foot injury.
JB had an amazing performance in the semi-finals and celebrated a remarkable 38th birthday last Saturday night after scoring a perfect 40 for his outstanding Salsa routine.
The couple has consistently topped the leaderboard several times during the competition and earned the very first perfect score of the series for their American Smooth dance.
In other comments, Sarah mentioned that the show has allowed her to break free from the boundaries she imposes on herself as a 53-year-old mother.

It was quite overwhelming handling that situation. I felt a little anxious because people really care about the partnerships, which is a big part of the appeal of Strictly Come Dancing. I wasn't sure how it would influence my experience during the entire journey.
Making that adjustment was tough. I don't believe many people realize just how challenging it can be to collaborate with a partner.
Last Saturday night, JB achieved an amazing performance in the semi-finals and celebrated his 38th birthday in style, scoring a perfect 40 for his outstanding Salsa routine.
The singer was given a unique 'Horwood handshake' by Craig Revel Horwood, known for being a tough judge. In a surprising moment, he got up to shake hands with the JLS star.
Taking a cue from Paul Hollywood's iconic 'Hollywood Handshake' featured on The Great British Bake Off, Paul was spotted chuckling in the audience as Craig emulated his well-known gesture.
Craig playfully said, “Come here, kiddo,” while inviting JB for a handshake. He also shared hugs with his fellow judges, Motsi Mabuse and Shirley Ballas.
In the past two weeks, Tasha and her partner Aljaž Škorjanec have been in the dance-off, managing to stay in the competition after facing off against both Pete Wicks and Montell Douglas.
The couple has frequently topped the leaderboard during the competition and earned the very first perfect score of the series for their American Smooth dance.
In other interviews, Sarah mentioned that the program has allowed her to break free from the restrictions she places on herself as a 53-year-old mother.
The actress, the second oldest competitor in this year's contest, mentioned that she found it irritating when her partner Vito Coppola initially had confidence in her skills. She was determined to prove that she understood her own body and its limitations.
She shared with MailOnline, "I've come to understand that I've been placing restrictions on myself."
It's something many parents experience. Often, you find yourself pouring all your energy into various tasks and responsibilities, leading you to rely on others rather than focusing on your own needs and beliefs.
