Strictly Come Dancing legend announces return to the show – ahead of launch tomorrow night
As fans will remember, JB’s JLS bandmate Aston Merrygold participated in the popular dance show back in 2017, and was controversially voted off in week seven, leaving fans stunned. Talking about the advice he’s received from Aston ahead of the launch show, he revealed: “I’m very used to singing and dancing with the boys but I don’t have any of those. Aston said to just be myself.”, reports the Mirror. “He’s very familiar with how I approach any task I’m doing, he knows I work hard and I think that goes a long way but he’s just said be myself and enjoy the moment.”

“If I manage to get all the way to the final then it goes very quickly so I’m just trying to soak up everything I can. I haven’t got into everything just yet but I’m super excited and looking forward to the new challenge.” JB Gill recently spilled the beans on who he thinks is his biggest competition on Strictly Come Dancing during a chat with Fleur East on Hits Radio. He said: “I genuinely believe there’s some really talented dancers in the group. I know Sarah Hadland, I’ve worked with her before with the boys, and she’s such a bundle of energy and I know she’s got some hips and toes in there.”

“Shayne (Ward) of course, he comes from a performing background as well. I know him very well from The X Factor and I know that he’s definitely going to be good.” Tasha (Ghouri), she’s danced, although it will be a different style of dancing, similarly to me. She’s got that element of performance, she’s definitely going to be one to watch. “There’s so many different people. Jamie (Borthwick) won the Christmas special last year. I know he’s getting a bit of stick for that, but it doesn’t necessarily mean anything else in terms of the longevity of the show, but he’s definitely going to be one to watch as well.” Strictly Come Dancing airs Saturdays and Sundays on BBC OneStory SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
