BBC Strictly Come Dancing star vows she'll never return to show after being left in 'bad way'

A BBC Strictly Come Dancing star has REFUSED to return to the show - after being left in a "bad way" by the programme. ITV This Morning host Rochelle Humes says she'll never appear on BBC Strictly Come Dancing again after her Christmas special stint.

Rochelle has moved to reveal why she’d NEVER sign up for Strictly - saying she was "in a bad way" after the Christmas special. The 35-year-old The Saturdays singer appeared in the festive episode alongside pro Ian Waite in 2013.

But she has ruled out a return. She said: “I basically got dragged around the dance floor by the lovely Ian Waite, and I was the most nervous I could be. I was in a bad way, I don’t know how anybody does that, week in, week out.”

Rochelle added to Closer: “I could never... and the respect that I have for the people that do Strictly, it’s just beyond!” Rochelle said: “We went to watch JB last week, and he was so brilliant – he didn’t look nervous at all!”

Rochelle's husband Marvin's JLS bandmate JB found himself in the bottom two over the weekend despite getting an impressive score of 30. JB said: "I mean, we got 30. So it wasn't like we had a shabby score, so, of course, it's always disappointing I think when you put so much work into training and obviously you work hard throughout the week, as everybody does, to kind of not have the result that you want - which is obviously to go through to the next week.

"And to find yourself in a dance-off is always a little bit disheartening, because it's not what you're looking for. But you know, the level of competition this year is very, very high. You can see that the standard is is right up there. And so, it's one of those things - part of the show."
