Michelle Visage insists she doesn’t have an unfair advantage on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, despite being professionally trained.
The ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ star has signed up to the new series of the latin and ballroom show and despite having some ballet and jazz training and a pop career, she insists she is the same as everyone else.
She said: "When I was seven I did the obligatory ballet and jazz dancing and I did that for quite some years. And then that’s where it ended. Then I did choreography and a girl group but I’ve never done a ballroom thing in my life."
And the 50-year-old singer and television personality has insisted the famous ‘Strictly’ curse is "so silly" as her husband David Case is the "love of her life".
She added: "That’s so silly. My husband of 22 years is the love of my life. It’s laughable is what it is. Let’s be real."
Michelle hopes her appearance on the show will inspire other women of her age to go out there and do what they want.
She told The Post’s Ross King: "I’ve watched from afar and I can’t wait to be as amazing as I can be. And I’m a woman that’s 50 years old. I want to be out there representing the women of a certain age who people say can’t do it any more. Well, actually we can – we can do it great.
"This is one show that I’ve loved for years. Keeping it quiet has really not been easy. And the only people I could tell was my husband and my inner circle. I couldn’t share the excitement – but now I can. I can’t wait to be the colour of a hardwood floor. I’m very excited."
