Team Arlene Arrive on the Scene
Team Arlene: Ashley, Camilla, Chelsey, Daniel, Emanuel, Ife and Kalvin
The luck was not with Arlene on Saturday as she didn't get first choice of the contestants at any of the three rounds but she was still thrilled with her team and is sure they will go on to win DanceX.
The contestants know that Arlene will make them 'work til they drop', but they're excited to be in her team and are sure she will get the best out of them.
Daniel is chuffed to pieces that he is being mentored by Arlene and said "she is not all that tough really, she has a heart of gold!" Ife said that her parents were so proud of her on Saturday night that she is desperate to stay in the competition.
Although being picked first gave Ashley a confidence boost, she is petrified at not performing up to Arlene's standards next week. It's a similar story with Emanuel who is flattered that Arlene thinks of him as a sex god saying "Arlene told me I captivate the audience and bring sex appeal, I hope I won't be leaving next week."
Kalvin thinks Arlene picked him because he's a good all-rounder saying "I'm the disco boy of the group, I'm going to be the one who keeps the spirits up."
Chelsey is chuffed to be on Arlene's team. She said "I feel like Arlene put her neck on the line to come all the way to Skegness to give me a chance and I hope she's proud." Camilla also wants to show the world what she can do and is pleased that Arlene gave her a chance.
Although Arlene missed out on choosing first, she is adamant her team will win saying "Bruno's got the bubbly group and I've got the darker, more hard working group. It's so weird - I just can't bear to think about who would go on Saturday."

I think Arlene's team can easily win this - they have everything. Every single member is a great talent. Young Ashley is phenomenal. They are such a closely bonded group and it shows and this will help them to win! Good luck Team Arlene, I love you all.

What a bunch of bleached airheads. Arlean describes them as a tree and it's branches. Well it's time to call the tree surgeon in to cut 'em down.

Well done Team Arlene. You worked as a team and it showed. Also congratulations on the Song item - the harmonys were excellent, especially as most of you are dancers and not singers! Keep up the hardwork

Love Team Arlene, they were just in a completely different class on Saturday evening. My favourite has got to be Ife, she is just mesmerising; so beautiful, talented and has the X-Factor. Good luck to them all.
