OHMYGOSSIP — Susan Calman will “never forget” having to strip naked next to Debbie McGee.
The 47-year-old comedian appeared alongside Debbie, 63, on the 2017 series of BBC favourite ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ and said that having to go nude for a spray tan with her was “f****** weird.”
She said: “I was frightened I was going to look like an idiot and stuff like that. And having to take your kit off and be spray-tanned next to Debbie McGee is an experience I’ll never forget in my life. Lovely woman, Debbie, but it was f****** weird!”
The ‘Great British Menu’ presenter was eventually eliminated ninth in the competition with professional Kevin Clifton whilst Debbie – who is best known for her marriage to late magician Paul Daniels – landed in third place alongside Giovanni Pernice in the series eventually won by former ‘Holby City’ actor Joe McFadden and Katya Jones but made her return to television for a festive edition of travelling show of ‘Cruising With Susan’ the end of 2021.
Susan had been selected to replace former ‘Loose Women’ star and singer Jane McDonald as the host of Channel 5’s flagship cruising show and joked that she has “not been shopping” for years as a every item in her wardrobe has been given to her as part of a television show.
Speaking on the ‘Who Are You Wearing?’ podcast, she told host Kiri Pritchard-McLean: “Every item I have has been bought for me by a television show. I haven’t been shopping in for years!”
