The Bad Education star channeled his inner Rizzo for the drama-filled routine.

Bad Education star Layton Williams absolutely slayed a sensational performance in drag on Strictly Come Dancing.

As part of "Movie Week," Williams and his partner Nikita Kuzmin graced the stage with a Viennese waltz set to “There Are Worse Things I Could Do” from the iconic movie musical Grease.

The performance opened with Williams strutting across a recreated Rydell High set, channeling the spirit of Pink Lady Betty Rizzo, famously portrayed by Stockard Channing. With Williams as Rizzo and Kuzmin as Kenickie (the T-Bird leader), the routine was filled with all sorts drama and passion that fans couldn't take their eyes off of.

Williams's captivating drag-led performance followed his statement in the Gay Times where he addressed the anti-LGBTQIA+ hate he's encountered, asserting, "I’m not here to please anybody who is not about me. I’m here to have a ride and enjoy my time with Nikita. Me being on Strictly and being myself is almost an act of defiance."
