Fred Sirieix up for Strictly Come Dancing

OHMYGOSSIP — Fred Sirieix would love to take part in ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The ‘First Dates’ maître d got a taste of the Latin and ballroom action when he competed in the BBC show’s Christmas special last year, which was won by singer Anne-Marie.
Despite admitting he is “not a natural dancer”, the 50-year-old star is up for strutting his stuff on the dancefloor in the full series later this year.
Quizzed on whether he would do the whole thing, he told the Metro newspaper: “I’m not a natural dancer. It took me three weeks to get that dance and it was a minute-and-a-half.
“It’s mind-blowing all the things you have to think about all at once.
“Would I do the whole series? Yes, I think I would.”
Anne-Marie and pro dancer Graziano Di Prima triumphed on last year’s festival special after scoring a perfect 40 out of 40 from the judges – Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Anton Du Beke and Motsi Mabuse – for their enthusiastic cha cha.
But Fred wasn’t too far behind, scoring 38 out of 40 from the panellists for his and his pro partner Dianne Buswell’s quickstep.
Craig praised Fred for his “fantastic energy”.
But he also told him: “I did think you were trotting around like a turkey but maybe that was the whole point darling.”
Ahead of the show, Fred admitted he hoped his routine would bring some “Christmas joy” to viewers.
He said: “I absolutely love Christmas so I’m delighted to be taking part in the Strictly Christmas special and to be partnered with the magnificent Dianne.
“I hope my dance moves bring some Christmas joy to everybody watching at home and don’t make the judges say ‘Bah, Humbug.’ ”
