The Strictly Come Dancing 2024 line-up is starting to take shape as three celebrities have been confirmed to take part in the 20th series of the hit BBC show
The BBC has begun to unveil the official celebrity line-up for Strictly Come Dancing 2024, and anticipation is at an all-time high.
Speaking of signing up to the series, Montell said: “Strictly ARE YOU READY, Fire is here to light up the Ballroom. Wow I am so honoured to have been asked to do the show. It is such an amazing thing to be a part of and I can’t wait to get started. Hopefully a few of my Gladiator moves will come in handy with the Tango or Paso Doble!”
He said: "I had a ball doing the Strictly Christmas special last year, so when I was asked to join for this series it was the easiest yes! This is a fresh challenge and it will be so different to be learning a new dance every week and for the public to have their say. I’m hoping to be Salsa-ing around Albert Square in no time and I’ll be asking my Walford Strictly alumni for some words of wisdom.
Shayne Ward Shayne Ward is the eighth celebrity contestants confirmed for the brand new series of Strictly Come Dancing. The former The Only Way is Essex star said: "Dancing live in front of the nation every Saturday? Absolutely terrifying. But anyone who knows me knows I love a challenge and trying new things, so I'm genuinely looking forward to getting stuck in."
Dr Punam Krishan BBC Morning Live's Dr Punam was the fifth celebrity contestant to be confirmed, and her exciting news was revealed on Vernon Kay's Radio 2 show on Tuesday . In addition to being a practising NHS GP, Punam frequently reports on health news as a broadcaster on TV, radio and national newspapers, and has even penned her own children's book, with more in the works.
Wynne Evans Looking ahead to the glittering challenge, Wynne Evans, known as the Go Compare Man and a professionally trained opera singer, joins the line-up after his reveal on Tuesday on Vernon Kay's Radio 2 show. He shared his disbelief: "I am honestly still pinching myself, a portly balding opera singer, me, taking part in Strictly Come Dancing?!"
