Actor Uri Pfeffer and dancer Elisa Sheriki hit a rough patch during rehearsals for their third dance on "Dancing with the Stars," after a pointed remark from Pfeffer during practice. The article says the competition's long rehearsal hours and pressure can create frustration, and the pair found themselves in a tense moment just before their performance scheduled for the evening after the news on Keshet 12.
During one rehearsal, Pfeffer told Sheriki in a sharp tone, "one inside the other's ass." Sheriki replied, "In a good way or not a good way, I can't understand." The exchange reflected an increasingly strained atmosphere between them as they prepared for the live show.
Later, the two tried to sort things out. Sheriki told Pfeffer, "It was hard for me to get to the studio, I left the house like a child who does not want to go to school. I cried, it was hard for me to get here." Pfeffer acknowledged the damage, saying, "Elisa was hurt by me."
He also suggested the conflict may have come from the pressures of the partnership, saying, "Every person at home who is in a relationship can tell you that there is a moment when no matter what the partner does, it irritates you."
