He outraged fans last week after appearing to grab head judge Shirley Ballas' breast during Strictly Come Dancing's first live show last week.
But Bruno Tonioli seemed to take the scandal in his stride, joking about the incident during Saturday's live show.
The 61-year-old Italian made the quip during his critique of Mollie King and AJ Pritchard's Tango.
'You certainly connected with your partner', Bruno teased of their on-screen chemistry, demonstrating with Shirley how you should hold your partner- before holding his hands up and exclaiming: 'I didn't touch anything!'
The impressed panel scored the thrilled couple with a high score of 25.
Bruno has become a fan favourite for his outlandish judging, and the dramatic way he performs his critiques has led to numerous on-screen gaffes.
