Will Young thinks it would be "great" to appear on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The 36-year-old star is no stranger to reality TV having shot to fame after winning 'Pop Idol' in 2002 and he's now revealed he'd love to give the BBC ballroom dance contest a go.
Will said: "I love watching 'Strictly' and I love dancing so if I got to a stage where it was a possibility to do it [reality TV], I think that would be a great one to do."
The 'Leave Right Now' hitmaker admitted he'd rather do 'Strictly' than a show such as 'Celebrity Big Brother' because he'd be able to gain something from it.
He explained: "I'd get a lot out of it. I trained, I did ballet for 12 years [but I] still can't do a pirouette!
"But that would be the natural one for me. If there was one, I would probably say that one because I'm terrified of ice skating and I don't know of I could to the [I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!] jungle. I'm sorry but no. I don't care. Character building? No. I don't give a s**t."

Terry Wogan says he drinks too much.
The 77-year-old TV presenter - who insisted he won't retire for at least 10 more years - enjoys cocktails with his wife Helen most evenings but admits he probably shouldn't.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We, probably in common with every other middle class person of our age, probably drink too much, but there you are.
"Of course you shouldn't drink every day, I'm not advocating people drinking, but the fact is that, yes, I have a glass of wine with my dinner and I may have a dry martini before my dinner.
"When you get to a certain age you think, 'Well, how much longer have I got to have a dry martini?' So you've got to make the most of it."
Terry also revealed that he is still enjoying work tremendously and wants to continue for as long as possible.
He said: "I'm used to long days. I do seven hours on my feet of live TV for 'Children in Need' every year, so the day I can't stand up is when I will stop doing it.
"I'd love to keep going another 10 years, I'll cling to the wreckage as long as I can. I'm supposed to be retiring, but I'm not.
"I have no plans to retire - they'll have to carry me off stage."

Gemma Collins has reportedly signed up for 'The Jump'.
The 34-year-old former 'TOWIE' star is set to take part in the dangerous show - which features celebrities attempting to master a number of winter sports including skiing, bobsleigh and the skeleton - when it returns to screens next year.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Gemma will make for fantastic telly. Everyone is predicting she won't find it easy."
Although Gemma's stint on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' did not go well, with the reality TV star quitting within days of entering the Australian jungle, she has reportedly insisted that won't happen with 'The Jump'.
The insider said: "There's also a strong chance she'll walk out like she did in the jungle. But Gemma has said she wants to do the show to prove people she's not a quitter."
Last season Joey Essex, Dom Parker, Phil Tufnell and Lady Victoria Hervey were all injured while training for the Channel 4 show.
And 'Strictly Come Dancing's Ola Jordan and Sally Bercow had to pull out entirely after injuring themselves.

The showrunner says the sci-fi programme is now part of British culture and he hopes it will continue even when he is no longer in charge.
He told BBC Wales: "I think Doctor Who is permanent.

And the current Doctor - Peter Capaldi - admitted that the love fans have for the show makes him feel extremely lucky.
He said: "It's a pretty amazing position to be in. It's lovely to feel the affection that people have for the show."
While Peter - who reprises his role as the titular Time Lord in the upcoming ninth series - revealed he wants David Bowie to appear in the show, he also admitted his hopes that Rolling Stones rocker Keith Richards will guest star.
He said: "David Bowie, he would be a very good one" and "I'd like to see Richards stumbling around the Tardis, knocking out a few chords".

Jim Carter doesn't know "where to find" Netflix.
The 'Downton Abbey' star has claimed he'll sign up for any TV show or movie as long as the pay is good and he likes the script but he's confessed he'd be wary of starring in a Netflix or Amazon Prime production as he wouldn't know how to watch them back.
He told BANG Showbiz: "With all those things - show me the script, show me the money. I'd consider doing anything if it was interesting. I wouldn't be a butler for a while but Netflix, I would never see it would I? I wouldn't know where to find it. Is it on the computer or is it on the television? I don't know! You'll be giving me lessons in tweeting and Facebook next. I mean, what is Facebook?"
The 67-year-old actor also insisted he has no plans to move to the United States now that 'Downton Abbey' has come to an end.
He said: "Oh no, God no. My life is in England. I worked in America for two and a half years in the 70s. I went for six weeks with a bizarre comedy road show and we stayed for two and a half years doing vulgar English comedy so that was good fun in my 20s but in my 60s? I don't think so. My life is at home."
The sixth and final series of 'Downton Abbey' begins on ITV at 9pm on September 20.

Natalie Anderson and Matthew Wolfenden are "overwhelmed" by fan support after her final 'Emmerdale' episode aired.
The 33-year-old actress recently quit the soap to spend more time with her husband James Shepherd and son Freddie, who was born in 2012, and after Thursday's episode showed her character Alicia Metcalfe splitting up with husband David (played by Matthew), both took to Twitter to thank viewers.
Natalie, whose character will move to Portugal with her son Jacob, wrote on Twitter: "Thank you so, so much for all of your lovely messages!! I'm so overwhelmed and grateful for all of the support you've show myself and Alicia over the years! I will miss playing her so much! Thank you again xx."
And David added: "Well, I am genuinely overwhelmed by the tweets I've had tonight for the episode, I'm so pleased you enjoyed/ cried. Thank you all x."
Natalie previously admitted she regretted going back to work so soon after giving birth Freddie, in 2012.
Speaking about her decision to quit playing Alicia in the ITV soap, she said: "The main thing was my little boy. I went back to work really soon after I had him. He was 11 weeks when I went back to work which was throwing myself in at the deep end.
"I didn't expect to feel the way that I felt as a mum. It really does change you and he just became, and is, my everything really.
"It was doing those hours you know? Starting at seven in the morning and then finishing at half past seven and prepping for the next day. I think a lot of people don't realise, you get home and there's 10 scenes to prep for the next day and if you're in a really heavy story I was easily going a week sometimes without seeing him and it just felt like I was missing out."

Ben Cohen has moved back in with his estranged wife and their two daughters.
The 36-year-old rugby star - who is dating his former 'Strictly Come Dancing' partner Kristina Rihanoff, 37 - and Abby Cohen are in the middle of a bitter divorce but after struggling to sell their £1.75 million home, Ben has reportedly moved back in to cut costs.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Ben thought he'd be able to sell the house and rent somewhere for Abby and the kids before their divorce went through.
"But there's been little interest and the cost of the mortgage and renting has become very expensive.
"He gets to see his kids more, but it has been really awkward for him and Abby."
It's not surprising things are awkward as Abby recently revealed she believes Ben cheated on her with Kristina.
The professional dancer - who has been nicknamed the Siberian Siren - insisted she and Ben did not get together until after his split from Abby, but Abby believes their relationship began when they were partnered together on the show in 2013.
Abby said: "I feel like he deceived me on every level you can imagine.
"My husband, who I was with for 23 years, unconditionally loved and was completely loyal to in every respect, has left me for a f***ing Russian dancer."
Rumours of an affair between Ben and Kristina first began circulating when they were competing on the BBC One dance contest.
But the pair claim they didn't get together until earlier this year, following Ben's split from Abby in September 2014.
Abby has twin daughters Harriette and Isabelle with Ben and is now "concentrating" on her children as well as her photography business.

Peter Andre has been tipped to win 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The 42-year-old singer has been paired with professional dancer Janette Manrara on the show and judge Craig Revel Horwood believes his huge fan base will help him to take home the glitterball trophy.
Craig told the Daily Star: "I've only seen them dance the opening, and some people can and some people can't.
"But I think Peter Andre has a very good chance of getting to the final. People love him, he's extremely popular."
It was recently claimed that Ola Jordan had a "massive meltdown" when she found out she wouldn't be partnering Peter on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The 32-year-old beauty was reportedly left fuming after the BBC One show's bosses snubbed her first choice in favour of Olympic athlete Iwan Thomas.
A source said: "Ola had a massive meltdown. She was ranting and raving as she genuinely thought they'd win.
"To make it worse, Iwan is based miles away and she doesn't even like him."
The news isn't likely to please the 'Mysterious Girl' hitmaker either as he previously admitted he had joked to Ola about only doing 'Strictly' if she was his partner.
He said: "I've met her many times in the past and we always joked for years, it's been going on for years, where I said 'I'll only ever do 'Strictly' if you're my partner.'
"Because she kept saying, 'When are you gonna come on the show, when are you gonna do it?'"

Peter Capaldi wants David Bowie to guest star on 'Doctor Who'.
The 57-year-old actor is gearing up for his second season as the titular character in the sci-fi series and while the show has had a number of high profile guest stars over the years, Peter's number one choice would be musician Bowie.
Speaking at a screening for the upcoming series in London on Thursday (10.09.15), Peter - who plays the Twelfth Doctor - said: "I think we should have David Bowie. I think he would be a very good one."
Meanwhile, showrunner Steven Moffat revealed he hasn't ruled out a musical episode, although he insisted he will never oversee a live one.
He said: "Who knows - anything could happen, I guess. It's a hard one. A musical 'Doctor Who'. It's like saying, 'do you know what this show isn't - it's just not camp enough.'
"Anything is possible, that's the extraordinary thing about 'Doctor Who'."
But when asked what adventures he would give the Doctor and his sidekick Clara (Jenna Coleman) in a live episode, Steven quipped: "I think I'd give them the adventure of the next showrunner. And I wish them the BEST of luck.
"I wouldn't do it, I've gotta be honest - I'd run like hell from that, because the thing you don't know about 'Doctor Who' is the state it's in when we sign it off.
"The postproduction on 'Doctor Who' - it's like a whole other show. All these geniuses come in and make it into this completely real world.
"In the case of Doctor Who, we would be denied the creative input of some of the greatest postproduction crew on the planet. Why the hell would I wanna lose those guys?"
'Doctor Who' series 9 begins on BBC One on Saturday 19 September.
