Strictlys Hamza Yassin breaks down in tears on launch show



Strictly Come Dancing's 2022 winner Hamza Yassin returned to screens on Saturday (September 16) night, but the comeback to the dancefloor proved to be an emotional experience.

He came back to the BBC dance competition for its season 21 launch show and reunited with his professional partner Jowita Przystal.

Hamza performed a fun-filled dance routine with Jowita, but shortly afterwards he broke down in tears.

Hamza was overcome with emotion as he reflected on his 2022 Strictly journey, which of course ended with him lifting the Glitterball Trophy.

"It's the best thing I've ever done," he told host Tess Daly. "I've been all over the world and Strictly has just been...

"Why am I crying?" Hamza exclaimed as he became tearful. "Strictly has been one of the best things I've ever done.

"To share this stage with this lovely young lady [Jowita], the things that she's taught me in life. Strictly, Jowita, thank you so much. Cheers everybody."

Chatting further to Hamza following his performance, Tess asked if he had any advice he could offer up to the star-studded cast of Strictly 2023.

"Strap in" he remarked. "Ice baths, lots of food, rest, and listen to your partner."

As well as seeing Hamza and Jowita take to the stage, the launch show featured several group dances from the Strictly professionals, a special message for absent dancer Amy Dowden, and a tribute to the late Len Goodman.

Throughout the show, viewers also saw each celebrity contestant get paired up with their pro partner.

Strictly Come Dancing airs weekends on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

Im a mum I save time doing my kids lunches using savvy hacks its easy

EVERYONE parent will know just how crazy the mornings can be when you're getting the kids ready for school. From prepping their lunches, to getting them washed and ready - time can fly by. But one savvy mum has shared just the hack to help speed up the process in the mornings. The mum, who goes by the name of Azure MacCannell on TikTok, has revealed a super time saving trick. She preps all of the sandwiches for the week, and freezes them. Azure has two lines of separate pieces of bread next to each other, On one line she spreads peanut butter, and on the other line she spreads jam. Azure then places the bread on top of each other to make a sandwich, before using a crust cutter to make the sandwiches into smaller squares. She then puts them into a big container and freezes them and use them "as needed." Azure also freezes the crust for "delicious French toast sticks." The video attracted thousands of likes, with many rushing to the comments section to share their...

1989 Taylors Version Vault Titles Are Here Just Decode 89 Puzzles

Just a few weeks out from the release of her fourth rerecorded album 1989 (Taylor's Version) -- which drops on October 27 -- Swift, 33, is doing what she does best: leaving Easter eggs for fans to decode. This time, she's paired up with Google for a word puzzle game that will seemingly help uncover the titles of the record's five vault tracks -- the bonus songs that never made the final cut of the original album. Starting Saturday, September 16, a closed blue vault began popping up when googling Swift's name. Clicking on the vault brings up scattered letters in a word jumble accompanied by a hint to help solve the puzzle. At first, the only clue was, "My name is Taylor and I was born in...," with "1989 Taylor's Version" being the answer. Beginning on Tuesday, September 19, however, the puzzles began to expand. The hint "Blank Space" leads to "Nice to meet you," while other answers include "Got a haircut," "S...

33 Crore Gods (Devi / Devtas) of Hindus

33 Crore Gods of Hindus For the believers of God, it is an accepted faith across the globe that God is one. Hindus too believe so, but then there remains a question often shaped as a mockery over Hindus about the various practices of worship rendered to innumerous God in their faith. And this question is often thrown by people, who are philosophically and religiously recognized. How come Hindu religion has 33 crore Gods? Is it sensible at all to believe and practice this? I have a question – How can one decide what is sensible and what is not, particularly when none of those great thinkers have attained perfection in realization of God, none of them have seen God, none of them have heard God. There are numerous instances where religion, religious books and their beliefs have tried to define God. Criticism is an easy thing to do but we have coins with two sides always. Realization of the positive side and its practice is not only hard to recognize but difficult to accept as well. Critic...
