Kerry Katona wants to take part in 'Strictly Come Dancing' and would love to be partnered with a woman.
Kerry Katona wants to go on Strictly
The 43-year-old star admitted that she loved doing ITV rival 'Dancing on Ice' 2011 and even though the BBC One Latin and ballroom show seemed like "hard work", she would jump at the chance and would have loved to have been partnered with former professional Joanne Clifton.
Writing in her OK! Magazine column, she said: "It seems like hard work but I’d love to do it, if I enjoy something then I’m not afraid to work hard. I loved taking part in 'Dancing On Ice' and I think the key is making it fun so you enjoy the experience. Joanne Clifton would be my dream professional dancer to partner with, even though she’s not on the show anymore.
Meanwhile the former Atomic Kitten singer - who is engaged to fitness instructor Ryan Mahoney - thinks it is a "shame" that 'Sherlock' actress Amanda Abbington has mysteriously the competition, opting to withdraw after making it to week five.
Kerry said: "Amanda Abbington has quit 'Strictly' and, while I don’t watch it, I do keep up with the news on it. It’s a shame she left and while we don’t know why, I think it would be physically and emotionally gruelling. I’ve heard her partner, Giovanni Pernice, is quite strict, which I’m not sure is always the way to go."
Following her shock exit, Amanda praised her "hardworking and talented" fellow contestants, admitting it was an "absolute joy" working with them.
She wrote on Instagram: "It is with deepest regret that I had to leave 'Strictly'. I did not come to this decision easily or lightly but for personal reasons, I am unable to continue. It was an absolute joy working with my fellow contestants, they are a beautiful, hardworking and talented group of people who I love and who I will miss seeing every Friday and Saturday and competing alongside."
