Dancer

When you're out dancing, you could be anywhere in the world, but it's only the dance that matters.

Peter Pan has been one of my dream roles since I was a child.

Gay, straight, young, older - everyone enjoys what I do.

I won't miss Monday morning rehearsals in a freezing studio at 8 A.M. I will happily never do that again.

Sir Bruce Forsyth, God rest his soul, he could dance, he could entertain, he could do whatever was asked of him.

The good thing about Curtis is he's very confident and secure in himself, so he doesn't waste his energy on any negative comments.

I want to show people what I'm about - not just, 'Here's my celebrity partner this year that I'm going to showcase.'

As long as you're happy, I think that is the main thing. It's something people forget way too often these days getting so stressed thinking about what other people's opinions are or what they need to do tomorrow.

Who wouldn't fall in love with me?

Within the dancing world, where we come from, there's a lot of same-sex partners as in, young girls dancing because there's not always enough boys to dance.

I'm ready to conquer anything thrown at me.

People are going to make their own minds up, and seeing how happy people are together and how much fun they're having, people are always going to think 'ooh are they in a relationship? They look so happy together.'

I get to perform in front of millions of people on Saturday nights, I get to choreograph and dance and nothing can bring me down.

I care more about Curtis than I do about selfies and looking good.

As long as you're happy, I think that is the main thing. It's something people forget way too often these days getting so stressed thinking about what other people's opinions are or what they need to do tomorrow.

I want to be one of those old-fashioned entertainers.

I exercise every day, whether it's weight sessions in the gym, runs wearing a 20kg weighted vest, or going for long walks.

I like to be in bed by nine and asleep by ten. I like to wake up early, go to the gym at 7am, that's my regime.

I think Phillip Schofield would be great on 'Strictly.' He got up on 'This Morning' once with Holly and did a bit of a boogie and he can dance, and he is entertaining, and he is such a nice guy.

There are dances you can do separately - your charleston, your jive.
