EXPERTS have said that Strictly Come Dancing star Hamza Yassin has beaten all the other stars – even if he doesn’t win the competition.
The wildlife cameraman has reason to celebrate, after gaining the largest number of Instagram followers since the start of the show.
Hamza is already a winner according to social media experts
The star is set to perform in the Strictly final tonight
Fan favourite Hamza, 32, will join his professional dance partner Jowita Przystał on the BBC One dance floor tonight for the finale.
However, despite viewers at home backing him to win, experts have revealed that he’s still a winner without the Glitterball Trophy.
Children’s TV presenter Hamza had a very modest social media following before the competition, but his fans have increased by an impressive 205% during the show.
In research carried out by experts at JohnSlots, it was revealed that Hamza saw the highest increase in following thanks to Strictly.
The cameraman now boasts a mammoth 128,000 followers, who have been keeping up with his Strictly Come Dancing journey.
Hamza and Jowita, 28, often keep their fans up to date with the behind-the-scenes of their training each week on Instagram.
It comes after it was revealed that Hamza is due to bag a big-money TV role after the final of Strictly Come Dancing tonight.
HOAR revealed last month that Hamza is getting his own nature show as bosses cash in on his popularity.
Producers are set on making him the next David Attenborough – who is one of the Beeb‘s top earners and worth a reported £25million.
A source close to the star said: “Some of the bosses at the BBC knew that when Hamza was revealed in the Strictly line up, few of the show’s loyal viewers would know who he was but they just knew he would end the series the most loved of all of the contestants.
“Getting him on the show was key to their end game, which is making him into another David Attenborough.”
The source added to Daily Mail: “Strictly has recently turned into a machine which elevates talent the BBC want to make into stars.
“And they are absolutely thrilled that this has paid off.”
The single star, who moved to the UK aged eight with his parents, has presented a string of nature-related shows for the BBC and Channel 4, including Animal Park and Scotland: Escape to the Wilderness.
Hamza has a degree in zoology with conservation, and a masters in biological photography, and a home in the Scottish Highlands where he can be as close to nature as possible.
He has worked on shows hosted by Sir David but has yet to meet the national treasure.
Strictly Come Dancing: The Final will air live on Saturday at 7.15pm, on BBC One and BBC iPlayer
