My statement about Cheryl only relates to the fact that she does show 
dancing. I am by no means judging with respect to the quality of her 
dance, on which I have no opinion at this time.

That has nothing to do with style and nothing to do with technique. In any case, the point I was making is that Cheryl should have nothing to do with promoting tango. How she dances is much much worse than any Villa Urquiza.
