Boyband star revealed as latest name to sign for Strictly Come Dancing as they appear on This Morning
X FACTOR finalist JB Gill is the third celebrity to be officially announced for Strictly Come Dancing.
JLS singer JB Gill, 39, joined presenters Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle on ITV‘s This Morning today for the big reveal.
Josie and Craig teased clues throughout the show, saying there would be a “big sparkly reveal” with not one but TWO celebs being unveiled.
Earlier in the installment, blind comedian Chris McCausland was confirmed as the first Strictly contestant after The Sun’s story over the weekend.
The first clue showed somebody pouring water into an X Factor branded coffee mug.
Josie then told viewers: “We can reveal that the second celebrity taking part in this year’s Strictly is JB Gill.”
JB is set to join celebs including ex-footie ace Paul Merson, 56, and DIY SOS’s Nick Knowles, 61, in Strictly’s line-up.
Team GB star Tom Dean let slip he was the first Strictly contestant hours after winning Olympic gold, as he confirmed The Sun’s story.
Strictly’s 20th anniversary special will air next month despite ongoing probes into dancers including Giovanni Pernice and Graziano Di Prima over conduct towards partners on the show.
The BBC said: “The celebrity contestants for the new series will be announced in due course.”
