AceShowbiz - "The Bachelorette" alum Gabby Windey laid bare her issues with Michael Buble. The 34-year-old has been open about her hatred towards the singer since her "Dancing With the Stars" stint, but her new remarks stunned everyone.
Windey was one of the contestants when Buble served as a guest judge on the show during an October 2022 episode. On the "Las Culturistas" podcast with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang, Windey didn't mince her words when recounting her experience.
"Michael Buble is beyond dead to me. He, like, literally eye-f***ed me, looked me up and down on the way to my trailer. I'm like, 'I'm for sure getting a 10 out of this guy,' " she said.
Despite her confidence, Bublé awarded her and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy a nine out of ten, which did not sit well with Windey, who jokingly added, "That is not the way to flirt with me. I like the love bomb."
Windey and Chmerkovskiy performed a rumba to Buble's 2005 hit "Home," scoring 46 out of 50 overall, with nines from Buble, Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and the late Len Goodman, and a perfect ten from Bruno Tonioli.
Last month during a "Cheap Shots" game with Cosmopolitan, she was asked to name a male celebrity she hated. Without hesitation, she answered, "Michael Buble." She explained, "He didn't give me a perfect score on Dancing With the Stars, but he did look me up and down in my outfit, so whose side are you on?"
Gabby Windey ended up finishing second on "DWTS" after losing out to Charli D'Amelio. Following her "DWTS" stint, she went on to star in "The Traitors" season 3 and emerged as one of the winners along with Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania, and Lord Ivar Mountbatten.
However, last month nearly a year after filming the show, she complained about her delayed payment. "Still haven't seen a dime. Everybody knows here at Bravo, NBC, Peacock," she dished on.
Whether resulting in a feud or a triumphant end, Windey's participation on multiple reality shows sheds light on her competitive nature. Another thing is clear: Gabby Windey is not shying away from speaking her mind.
