Sarah was visibly flummoxed by Motsi’s declaration as she responded: “Thank you, thank you very much.”

A perplexed @molly_ynwa added: “I normally hate the rumba but that was insane!! can’t believe Craig & Motsi.”

While a fuming @CeeceeNeill15 penned: “Sarah and Vito that was a very hot Rumba and I loved it Craig was definitely looking at a different dance. It deserves 4 10’s. Craig and Motsi need to give their heads a wobble 8’s.”

@see75 questioned: “Craig and Motsi were VERY picky for Sarah and Vito’s rumba!! What WILL actually impress Craig?!!”

Despite the backlash, @coxyhockeychick defended the judge and added: “Great dance but I have to agree it needs chemistry or as Motsi says oooziness lol.”
