Strictly Come Dancing 2016

It’s getting closer and closer to Strictly season, and the secrets are starting to sneak out! So far, we’ve discovered four of the celebs who will be strutting their stuff on the dance floor, but who do you think will show us their best fox trot? The first celebrity announcement was made on Monday, with the Strictly Come Dancing Twitter page having a bit of a laugh with their reveal. The show simply tweeted “Ed Balls”, a poke at this tweet from Ed himself back in 2011, to let the world know that this politician will be cha-cha-ing across the Strictly dance floor. We think he'll look great in all of the sequins, but will he perfect his tango? Will Young was the second celeb to be announced. The singer seems very excited for his dancing debut, and even shared this video on Tuesday night. Looks like he's getting some good practice in with that broom, we hope that Ed can keep up! Laura Whitmore, the third celebrity to be revealed, seems to be the most excited about her upcoming time on Strictly. After being announced as a contestant yesterday, she was tweeting her elation left, right, and centre. Rumour has it that Strictly has been a dream for Laura since the show first aired in 2004, so we predict that she'll be giving it her all for this sparkly series. We have high hopes for the fourth celeb, Ore Oduba, who was announced yesterday. The TV presenter for the BBC seems to be confident in his dance moves, and a huge fan of the show, so we think he'll be bringing a lot of sass. The fifth contestant was announced this morning, and it was Kiss FM DJ Melvin Odoom, who has declared that he's mostly excited for the sequins. We can't really blame him, the Strictly outfits always get us talking! We're expecting a big season this time around, especially considering it's Strictly legend Len Goodman's last series, and he certainly deserves a special send-off. It certainly won't be the same without Len and his famous "SEVEN!", but we'll still love it all the same. But it's not all about goodbyes and teary eyes. There are six new professional dancers coming to whip our celebs into shape this autumn after losing five dancers at the end of the last series, so it should be fun to see some fresh faces! Do you have any predictions for the other celebrity contestants?
