Scott Mills sheds seven pounds on Strictly


Scott Mills has lost seven pounds since he started training for ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The BBC Radio 1 host cruised through the fourth week of the dancing competition on Sunday evening (19.10.14) and as well as learning to ballroom dance he’s also starting to feel the health benefits of his gruelling training schedule.

Speaking at the BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards at Wembley Arena, he told BANG Showbiz: "I feel a lot fitter – I feel strong! I’ve lost like half a stone already."

Although the 40-year-old presenter’s waistline has been decreasing at a speedy rate, it might become even more dramatic by the next live show on Saturday (25.10.14) when he will be performing a notoriously quick-paced dance.

He joked: "Next week I’m doing Charleston which is literally hopping around for hours so like, six hours a day I’m going to be fit!"

The DJ has consistently been scored harshly on the programme, so confessed that he was shocked when former ‘The Only Way is Essex’ star Mark Wright ended up in the dance-off yesterday (19.10.14) along with ‘Bargain Hunt’ host Tim Wonnacott.

He remarked: "I was really surprised. But that’s the thing about ‘Strictly…’, you cannot call it and even people that you would think would feel that they were safe, they don’t.

"Because as you see with the bottom two last night, it’s like, why has that happened? So yeah it’s scary for everybody. That bit when you’re standing there waiting is the worst bit."
