Alan Bersten Responds to Kaitlyn Bristowe Calling Him "Kind of a Dick" and an "Absolute Nightmare"
Alan Bersten is hitting back at Kaitlyn Bristowe's comments about him being a "dick" on Dancing With the Stars. To rewind real quick: Kaitlyn was giving Charity Lawson some advice on her Off the Vine podcast, and speculated about who she could get paired with.
“I think possibly Alan because I could see them putting you with him, only because he’s one of the more well-loved, I feel like, out of a lot of them. And I feel like I could see you and your fun personality with him,” she explained, adding that Alan is “crazy in the ballroom” and that “He’s kind of a dick, but I can see it. Well, they’re all dicks. They’re all dicks, I’m telling you. Buckle up.”
Kaitlyn went on to say that “Artem is so hardcore. He’s Russian and that’s how he was trained growing up. He’ll believe in you, and he’ll push you to your limits, which we love. And then Alan would be an absolute nightmare, but it would be really, like, he would take you far.”
Alan's response to all this?
“First of all, I never danced with Kaitlyn, so I don’t know why that would even come up,” he told Us Weekly. “I take a lot of pride in my work and I make sure that above all else, my partners feel comfortable and confident in themselves.”
He also said he "kind of" took Kaitlyn's comments as a compliment, while she has—per Us Weekly—since clarified on Insta, saying “I can be a dick. We can all be dicks. Alan is one of my closest friends from the show. I have nothing but love and respect for him. I think it’s OK to be a dick and push people to believe in themselves and light a fire.”
