Louis Walsh took to the X Factor stage last night to perform an Irish gig in order to win over viewers from BBC’s rival show Strictly Come Dancing, but it appears that he tripped up a professional dancer during his dancing debut.
The Irish judge’s river dance performance took place at the beginning of the show, when the talent show overlapped with the hugely popular celebrity dance contest.
Earlier this month, Strictly had 2 million more viewers than the X Factor and this stunt by Louis tried to win back the ITV show’s viewers.
The Irish judge didn’t fail to entertain with his performance, but all anyone could talk about was a professional dancer tripping up at the end – and viewers are convinced Louis was responsible!
Taking to Twitter one fan said, “We know who to blame for that #louiswalsh.”
Another wrote, “Did Louis Walsh just take out an Irish dancer!? #xfactor.”
One fan said, “Hahahahah Louis Walsh tripped this Irish dancer up during X Factor opening. Too much!”
Louis certainly knows how to get everyone talking!
