The photos show Higgs, 25, all but naked seductively posing for the cameras.
Charlie was again voted through on last night’s live show.
However, a street poll yesterday revealed Dubbo’s Charlie fans are not concerned about a backlash over his partner’s hot pics and believe they will have little impact on his fight for the So You Think You Can Dance crown.
Some even believe it will help the duo in the competition.
“It’s great publicity for them,” Bec Higgins said.
Tegan Dunlop said the photos might even get more men voting for the couple.
While Jessica Storm believed Higgs’ shoot would cost her votes, but not Charlie.
According to Zoo, Higgs (a Melbourne dance teacher and cheerleader) has posed completely naked for several sets of photos in the past.
Charlie is currently favourite with Sportingbet Australia to win the competition followed by Danny, while Higgs is fifth in the betting.
Gold Coast jazz dancer Ben has emerged as the biggest threat to Charlie and Danny winning So You Think You Can Dance according to Sportingbet Australia punters, with CEO Michael Sullivan claiming Ben was fast emerging as a dark horse.
“We’ve taken a couple of good bets on Ben at the good odds of $14 and he showed us with his ‘gangster crump’ this week that we may have underestimated him,” Sullivan said.
“While Charlie and Danny still dominate the market, Ben is now in to $7.50 third favourite.”
On Sunday the duo wowed audiences and judges again with a spectacular contemporary routine.
