Osher Günsberg reveals why he snapped at Dancing With the Stars judge following tense on-air exchange
The pair exchanged some tense words on Sunday night after Günsberg and partner Sriani Argaet danced an Argentine tango to the strains of David Bowie 's Fashion.
After Revel Horwood decried the routine as a 'mess', Günsberg wasted no time in challenging the judge's assessment in what was a fiery exchange.
Speaking to Chattr about the incident, Günsberg said the judge could've peppered some compliments into his harsh critique.
'I tried really, really, really hard, and a part of me was like, "Oh, come on man. You know that was a really f**king hard thing to do, and I was never going to be technically perfect at it",' he said

'I'm also not trying to be a professional dancer. So, you know, at least give us a compliment sandwich.
'Start with, "Mate, your hair looked good. Your feet look terrible, but you have a nice smile." You know, give us that'
Günsberg, who was eliminated from the series on Sunday night, admitted that he wanted to draw attention to the 'snarkiness' in Revel-Horwood's comments.
'Sometimes you give it back, it works, and sometimes it doesn't,' he said.
'It was always going to be a risk, but you know… I was coming from a place of reality, and I wasn't particularly upset at him, I was just trying to draw some perspective to the snarkiness of what he was saying.'
And Revel-Horwood did not mince his words with his assessment of Günsberg's tango.
'A right, Royal mess that was,' he said 'I don't know what that step was meant to be coming down the ramp, darling, but whatever it was it was fumbled.'
Visibly annoyed, Günsberg snapped, 'Would you like to try going down that Perspex ramp in those heels, sir? You're more than welcome to show me.'
He continued to rage: 'But I need you to be doing it in a tango step while the person next to you is on one foot kicking, and you're holding their momentum against you. After you!'
Revel Horwood seemed taken aback by the fiery exchange, replying to a fuming Günsberg, 'That is not my job'.
He then continued on with his critique despite the tense atmosphere, which had host Sonia Kruger visibly shocked.
'It was completely erratic,' Craig said, after dismissing Günsberg's remarks.
Revel Horwood told the frustrated TV personality, 'You were making mistakes left, right and centre.'
Fellow judge Mark Wilson did offer Günsberg some words of encouragement, telling him that he admired his determination to improve his dancing skills.
However, the final score was a dismal 15 points and Günsberg was sent home.

Eddie McGuire's son reveals the parts of his childhood that his famous father swore him to secrecy about
Eddie's McGuire's lookalike son Xander has revealed the secret meetings that were held in their living room that he was banned on talking about - until now. Xander, the eldest son of media icon Eddie, began his broadcasting career as a sports reporter for Channel Nine in 2022 after early acting and internship work. In 2025 he moved to Channel Seven 's AFL coverage team, earning industry praise and awards like the Clinton Grybas Rising Star. He has handled the slings and arrows of critics claiming his early success is the result of nepotism with class and is forging his own reputation as a media superstar in the making. While his famous father was a media powerhouse, he was also the president of the most powerful AFL club in the country - Collingwood. And now Xander has revealed that not only was he aware of secret meetings in his own house, he helped organise them. McGuire (pictured with parents Eddie and Carla) says he helped set up recruitment pitches as a teenager during his father's Collingwood presidency 'I remember, I think it was in the year off, when all the Bombers players were out,' he told the Dos and D podcast. '[Essendon defender] Michael Hurley came over and everyone gave him the full pitch in our living room. 'They had like, the PowerPoint up on the TV and everything. 'My brother and I had to set it up. Dad couldn't set it up cause he had no idea about tech. 'It was very out the back door and don't say anything.' 'That was exciting too because he was a gun. He obviously didn't come so the pitch must have been s**t. 'There was a lot of things going on like that where it was 'don't say anything to your mates', all through our childhood. A lot of player meetings and the like at our place.' While many would think that it would have been tough to work around the insane schedule of someone as busy as 'Eddie Everywhere', Xander said the total opposite was true. His father was jokingly given the nickname 'Eddie Everywhere' for his host of television commitments involving footy, The Footy Show and Who Wants To Be a Millionaire along with his role as Collingwood president. But Xander said that never stopped his dad from being present for important family and individual moments. 'The workload was wild, he was on brekky radio every morning,' he said. 'You wouldn't see him around the house in the morning which was unreal. 'The stress that he would have brought into the equation, like if I can't find my school shoes, he would've blown his top over stuff like that. 'He's better than anyone at finding little pockets [of time],' he said. 'I could count on one hand, not even, the amount of times that I would have had an event, a cricket or footy match, something, and he couldn't have made it to it, when I would have wanted him to be there. 'Even when he would host Friday night footy for Fox, he would come home at 5pm for like an hour, find a way to come home and have dinner with us. Xander started his media career at Channel Nine, where his father Eddie (pictured together) made a name for himself 'It was never a thing where I felt like I didn't get to see my old man for different parts of when I was growing up.' You can tell the apple doesn't fall far from the tree watching Xander speak. He has the same mannerisms, room presence, facial features, hairstyle and he might even have the same suit as his father Eddie. It is something that doesn't escape him as he forges his own path in media. 'Even though I am following a similar trajectory ... but I've never seen it as [a situation where I have to] emulate what he did,' Xander said. 'It's a completely different game now. 'It's more of a perception thing, to be honest. I don't know what either of your dads did, but a lot of my friends' dads are lawyers, doctors, and they're studying medicine and law right now. 'They don't feel the pressure to emulate exactly what they've done. 'Obviously I want to be successful and if I could be as successful as my old man has been, that would be fantastic.

Married At First Sight 2026: New groom EXPOSED as fame chaser after footage flirting with Sonia Kruger resurfaces
Another Married At First Sight 2026 couple was revealed on Monday after Daily Mail Australia exclusively obtained pictures of their nuptials on Maroubra Beach. Now, details have emerged about the new MAFS groom's past, hinting that he may be looking for love for all the wrong reasons. Scott McCrystal, who is paired with Gia Fleur, is no stranger to reality TV, having starred in a number of Aussie programs, including Million Dollar Island. His résumé of shows comes as no surprise considering he told The Courier Mail in 2018: 'Tradie work is not for me. I want fame.' 'My dream goal is to do TV and movies,' he said, while promoting himself for Channel 10 dating show Blind Date. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'It's the most fun thing to do. Tradie work, I walk in and think "this is not for me,"' he continued. Scott got his wish, later appearing in a slew of reality shows, including Holey Moley in 2021. The competitive mini golf series, hosted by Sonia Kruger, saw participants battle it out on the green to win the grand prize. In the 'sexy singletons' episode, Scott appeared overly confident as he stripped off his shirt to reveal his heavily tattooed and buff frame. The gym junkie was in his element, teasing the crowd and flexing his muscles, before taking a moment to chat with the Strictly Ballroom star. 'It appeared there were women flirting with you in the gallery,' Sonia remarked to Scott after he won the round. 'That's standard. I get that all the time,' Scott responded in a cocky fashion, before directing at Sonia: 'Including yourself, I think.' Sonia laughed off his arrogance, pretending to remove the tickets he had on himself. 'Get that ticket off there,' she said in between laughs, while brushing his head. 'Ticket to my house, is that?' Scott brazenly quipped, before joking: 'Just kidding.' There's no doubt that the larger-than-life hunk, who boasts over 25,000 followers and a blue tick on Instagram, has an ego on him. In the bio of his YouTube account, Scott describes himself as an 'entrepreneur, longevity junkie, finance specialist, and early-morning savage'. He revealed that his aim is to help his followers 'level up' and achieve 'the alpha lifestyle' through fitness, food and goal-setting. Scott's fame-chasing and flirty ways have MAFS fans raising eyebrows over his intentions on the show. Scott appeared smitten on Monday as he married TV bride Gia, who risked suffering a wardrobe malfunction in a very racy dress. The couple were all smiles as they wed in front of a picturesque beach scene, with Scott leaning back in fits of laughter as they held hands at the altar. The new couple exchanged rings and then a kiss as they said 'I do' for MAFS fans across the globe. Later on, Scott and Gia enjoyed a loved-up photo shoot on the beach, where they could be seen striking a variety of poses. One picture saw the couple in a passionate embrace, with Gia's garter-laden leg lifted up by her husband. Later, Scott carried his new bride across the beach.

The Banished review – cultish terrors lurk in the Australian outback
Weirdos in animal masks, summary executions, rituals that envelop you in a strange sense of predestination; thanks to the folk-horror crowd, you can't go for a country walk these days without expecting to stumble into some uncanny pagan savagery. This Australian thriller subscribes unquestioningly to all of the above tropes, but its delicately splintered narrative and feel for outback disorientation and dismay mark out a distinctive trail – until it disintegrates to the point the film can only turn in circles. Prodigal city girl Grace (Meg Eloise-Clarke) comes back to her home town in the bush to search for her missing brother David (Gautier de Fontaine), who saved her from their abusive father. Nosing around this depressing outpost, she hears rumours of a mysterious commune out in the wilderness drawing in local vagrants and drifters. Her uncle (Tony Hughes) warns her off investigating – but of course she ignores him, as well as the pile of keepsakes hinting at her family's long involvement in cultist shenanigans. So she slings a few grand to her shady former geography teacher Mr Green (Leighton Cardno) to escort her out into the scrub. Intercutting Grace's forlorn interrogations with her panicky isolation in the countryside, director Joseph Sims-Dennett initially has one narrative chase another's tail; they dovetail into a first half whose general oppressiveness grinds us down, while the fragmentation prickles us into alertness. It's heightened by a sharp and impatient visual sense keen to root out grim outback picturesque as well as broken bones and toxic microbes inside Grace's beleaguered body, and meting out action in abbreviated, comic-book-style beats. Once Grace makes first contact, and comes back once more within the family embrace, the film tries to go full-on phantasmagoric. But the highly allusive storytelling style ultimately leaves insufficient meaning at the core of this quasi-psychedelic breakdown and too much generic pagan cavorting and leering. Even so, it's a credible enough attempt at launching an Aussie branch of the global folk-horror brotherhood. The Banished is on digital platforms from 28 July.
