Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu rejects Dancing On Ice Ofcom’s complaints as he returns to rehearsals

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu got to work on Thursday when she was spotted training with fellow Dancing On Ice member Brendyn Hatfield.

The 28-year-old former Love Island star is preparing to face another celebrity in this Sunday’s skate-off to fight for his place in the competition, after receiving the fewest votes during the launch show.

She appears to have dismissed the controversy surrounding her performance, which was dubbed the show’s “sexiest ever” performance and led to over 100 complaints from Ofcom.

Training for the show, Ekin-Su donned a pair of bright red leggings with a gray sweatshirt, which had “Paris” printed on the front.

Her brunette tresses were let down into a straight style as she opted for a natural palette of tanned makeup.

While his partner Brendyn rocked a pair of gray pants with a black hoodie as he guided the star across the ice.

He seemed to work hard during training, gliding across the ice with one foot while lifting the other into the air.

Ekin-Su sparked controversy with her performance during the kick-off show of Sunday night’s skating competition as she recreated her famous crawling scene from Love Island.

And she gave the routine 100%, with host Holly Willoughby even calling the routine the “sexiest dance of all time” on the show.

But the performance did not get the reaction it had hoped for, with Ofcom receiving 112 complaints from the public after the episode.

Many were quick to criticize Ekin-Su’s sequin-adorned jumpsuit, which was a recreation of the one worn by Britney Spears in her Toxic music video, that the reality star was dancing around.

While the actress also crawled across the ice during the performance, an ode to the famous Love Island scene in which she crawled across the villa’s terrace to kiss her compatriot Jay Younger behind her partner Davide Sanclimenti’s back.

The sultry routine also saw her lie on her back and be swept into the arms of her partner Brendyn, complete with plenty of animated facial expressions.

Ekin-Su and Brendyn were placed in the middle of the leaderboard by the judges, who gave a score of 21.5.

But while they agreed that the star certainly had sex appeal, they expected a bit more from the performance.

‘It was very sexy. But what I want most is skating,” Judge Jayne Torvill said. Ashley agreed as she said, “Skate on your own without holding on to Brendyn, show us what you can do.”

Many viewers also took to social media to call the routine “not appropriate” for the family-friendly show, which airs before the turning point.

But the performance was a hit with Ekin-Su’s boyfriend, Davide, who sat in the audience and joked that he “couldn’t wait” to take her home.

Later in the show, the public vote revealed that the Love Island star received the fewest public votes and will face a skating contest on next week’s show, along with another star.
