    Hi Stefano! I think you are one of the very best dancers and I was so sorry to see you go. Sadly, these things do happen. I want to tell you that you have a great smile! Like you, I also smile a lot and people often tell me to smile less but I disagree. When I smile, others smile back and this often creates a good feeling. I hope to see more of you in other shows. You are a real star. All the best!

    Hi Stefano, As a dance teacher myself, I could see that your efforts with your celebrity often surpassed the others in choreography and quality of performance. I have always admired your dancing and was shocked when you and Jess were voted off the show. The voting public obviously has no idea and unfortuantely the prize may go to the wrong dancer. Enough said..............

    Hey Stefano. Just wanted to say you were my favourite pro, and I was very sad to see you go. If I ever come to Sydney I will come to your studio and learn - you are a wonderful dancer and a very happy guy.

    hi stefano, i am a ballroom dancer too! I love watching you dance no matter who your partner is. Your choreography is brilliant, it always brings out the exact mood of the dance. I never miss the show. Believe it or not watching you dance has helped me improve. I competed on Sunday and got golds in all my events. Thankyou

    To those who feel the need to post useless comments, such as "i don't like him" and "too many teeth", please keep those very rude thoughts to yourself. This is a dancing competition, not a beauty pageant nor a place where you should post your judgements of people to yourself. Keep up the great work, Stefano. I enjoy your choreography and value your patience. Well done for tonight!
