Popstar Pixie Lott has been confirmed as the 11th celebrity taking part in the new series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The news was confirmed via the official @BBCStrictly Twitter feed earlier today. Pixie had been teasing the news on her own Twitter channel prompting her fans to speculate what she was about to announce.
Pixie said, “I’m so excited to be doing Strictly, it’s going to be a lot of fun. I always want to push myself as a performer so can’t wait to learn the routines.”
23-year-old Pixie recently released her self-titled third studio album following the success of recent single Nasty.
Pixie joins Frankie Bridge, Judy Murray, Alison Hammond, Thom Evans, Simon Webbe, Mark Wright, Sunetra Sarker, Jake Wood, Steve Backshall and Scott Mills in this year’s battle for the ballroom. Four more celebrities are still to be confirmed.
