David Graham, former Big Brother Housemate, and current contestant on Dancing With The Stars, has caused controversy during the Season 6 premiere last night by swearing live on television during his appearance on the show.

While the use of language did not appear to immediately alarm host Daryl Somers, it was picked up by audiences, with it causing an unnecessary controversy for swearing live on a family show. When speaking to the Kyle and Jackie O show this morning, Graham assured the general public it was unintentional.

During the interview, David described his final score of 18 (the lowest out of any contestant) as "kind of demoralizing", and also said that he did not feel discriminated against for having to dance with a female partner.

According to a voting poll on the Dancing With The Stars website, at 9am AEDT this morning, David Campbell (edit perhaps he meant Tim Campbell) is the early public favourite to win this year's series, receiving more than double the votes of any other contestant on the first poll for the series.
