Anton also came under scrutiny at the weekend for his treatment of celeb Laila Rouass before becoming a show judge.
Gio, 33, said in Llandudno, Clwyd: “Happy birthday to my best friend.
“Let’s shake this bum on stage tonight extra hard to celebrate.”
It comes as Graziano Di Prima was axed after he kicked Love Island’s Zara McDermott.
Now it can be revealed Gio is cashing in on Strictly as he is booked to perform at parties which look to copy the show, despite quitting in May.
He and other cast members will feature at Dancing With The Stars in Windsor and Newport next year.
But their involvement may break BBC rules.
The policy states: “Actors and artists in BBC output should not appear in promotional work which mimics on-air roles.”
A source said: “Gio’s inclusion will raise eyebrows as he is, of course, no longer part of the Strictly cast.”
