La Voix's casting was revealed on The Scott Mills Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2, and she said: "I've performed for royalty, RuPaul and Simon Cowell, but nothing fills me with more excitement (and quite a bit of terror) than the thought of dancing in front of millions on live Saturday night TV.

"Strictly is a national institution and I can't wait to get started. All that's left to say is: good luck to my partner! Here's hoping they can help me go from La Voix into La Danse."

Strictly Come Dancing continues on BBC One and iPlayer on Saturday 1st November at 6:35pm.
