Rita Ora wants to sing on Strictly Come Dancing


Rita Ora wants to perform on the next series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The ‘I Will Never Let You Down’ hitmaker is keen to sing as the dancers take to the ballroom floor, but she has ruled out competing on the programme because she doesn’t think she’s a good enough dancer.

Speaking to radio station Kiss FM at V Festival, Rita said: "I’d like to perform on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’. I like that they have performers on there and the judges are always funny but I’m not trying to ballroom dance … I’m telling you I don’t want to embarrass myself."

The 23-year-old pop star is looking forward to watching the new series of the BBC One show, and she can’t wait to see how The Saturdays singer Frankie Sandford does on the dancefloor.

She added: "It’s great that Frankie from The Saturdays is going on. She’s probably a much better dancer than me."

Rita has also ruled out ever going on ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ although she admits she is a fan of the reality TV show.

She said: "I will never do ‘Big Brother’ – honestly would never do it. I watch them but I’d never do them."
