Bruno Tonioli has lashed out at the professionals who work on Strictly Come Dancing that complain about their salaries.

The judge is fed up of the dancers asking for more money, believing that if they're not content with their wages they should "f**k off".

Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, he explained: "Those are the terms of the negotiations. If you don't like it, stop moaning and f**k off."

Whilst the Strictly pros are believed to earn £30,000 per series, Bruno insists he's not become rich since starting the show in 2004 as the sum he's paid isn't "life changing" either.

"Strictly has not made me a millionaire. I still live in the same apartment I bought in 1991, before Strictly. But I never moan. The BBC do a wonderful job.

"I love it. It gives so much pleasure to so many people. It would be wonderful to do it for as long as possible."

Despite not making millions off the show, the Italian choreographer hasn't been tempted to jump ship to rival ITV series The X Factor.

"I say, good for Simon Cowell. I don't have that gift, that's not what I do."
