Celebrity Partner: Jess McNamee
Two-time New Zealand Dancing With The Stars champion Stefano Olivieri returns for Series Nine.
Singer/dancer/actor Olivieri previously trained at the Actors Centre Australia before making a professional splash in 2002. That year, he appeared in the feature film The Quiet American, as well as two musicals, 'West Side Story' and 'Chicago'. He was named the Australian Ballroom and Australasian Dancesport Champion and performed at the Sydney Olympic Games Closing Ceremony.
Since then, Olivieri has accumulated numerous titles, including the 2003 Singapore International Open Professional Dancesport Champion, the 2003/2004 Australian Professional Dancesport Champion, the IDSF World Champion New Vogue and the 2005 to 2007 Australian Professional Dancesport Champion.
Theatrically, he has appeared in 'Cruisin'', 'Footloose', 'Ballroom – The Musical', 'Floorplay' and 2004 and 2006 seasons of 'Burn The Floor'. He also directed the musical version of 'Moulin Rouge'.
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 there Stefano you are amazing dancer and it is a shame you left the show tonight and i love ballroom dancing and i love watching Dancing and with the stars. Stefano you are a good looking and a very very sexy guy. if you ever come to Western Australia and it would be nice and to meet up and with you. All the best and cheers.
i absolutely think ur georgous and that smile is awesome. i love ur dancing with jess mcnamee.
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
Stefano, you are amazing. i feel your smile lights up the dance foor. you are a brilliant performer. please dont stop smiling....
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!
What a smile man. Cute as a button. You're a winner in my books!
