Gorka Marquez told it 'should be illegal' as he channels famous rapper in topless appearance

Gorka Marquez has left his fans swooning as he compared himself to a famous rapper with his latest shirtless appearance. The Strictly Come Dancing star is currently performing to thousands each night on the show's professionals tour.

He has been sharing pictures throughout the tour's run to his Instagram page and on Sunday night (May 21), the Spanish dancer was clearly feeling the vibes backstage as he and his co-stars geared up for their last performance at the London Palladium.

In his post, Gorka, 32, could be seen with his various body tattoos on display as he stood in his dressing room in just his black trousers. He was gesturing to the camera with a pair of black shades covering his eyes and what appeared to be a phone charging wire around his neck.

"Channeling @badbunnypr for the last show at @thelondonpalladium," he captioned the post before adding: "LOL [laugh out loud]." His co-stars including Jowita Przystal, Nikita Kumzin and Dianne Buswell all left crying laughing emojis in the comments section.

Karen Hauer added: "I can't," alongside her crying laughing faces while Carlos Gu replied: "My bunny," with a love heart eyes emoji.

And fans were also responding to the new snap. @nickib1343 said: "Suits you." @susanclarkson34 commented: "Wowza, Gemma is sooo lucky to have you." @sampleteresa wrote: "I would never have guessed it was you!!" @krazykezza77 added: "Haha u look funky."

The post came after Strictly alumni Tyler West suggested Gorka and his sizzling appearance on stage should be 'illegal' after he headed to see the show with former co-star and now-girlfriend Molly Rainford. The pair, who met on the BBC One dance show last year, were in the audience at the famous Palladium as the show's professional dancers took to the stage.

Posting a video of Gorka performing an intense paso double, Kiss FM DJ Tyler wrote on his Instagram Story: "@gorkamarquez this should be illegal. Had me putting down my ice cream and holding hands tight," with an added crying laughing emoji.

He later gave his verdict of the show and said: "Well done team @strictlycomedancinglive. How we wish we were dancing again."
