Kelly is determined for next week

Kelly has spoken of her determination to win over the judges this week after finding herself in the dance-off last Saturday.

‘It’s a real shock to be in the bottom two,’ she said. ‘The judges were right. I have to prioritise and make sure Strictly Come Dancing comes first. I knew I hadn’t done enough training.’

‘This week, I am just getting ready to work. It’s back to square one. The competition is back on.’

But Kelly has also revealed that she’s not as confident as she may appear. ‘I’ve never done Latin or Ballroom. I’m not a performer in that respect,’ she said. ‘I get such terrible stage fright. I walk around like I’m confident but I’m terrified.’

‘I want to stay in this competition. I would feel that I I’ve let myself down. I’ve so much more to show people.’

Meanwhile, Brendan has revealed that he found that the group dance affected their performance.

‘After you’ve done the group dance your mind is mush. I’m not making an excuse – it’s the way it happened,’ he said. ‘If I could change anything I wouldn’t be in the group dance.’

But it looks like Brendan and Kelly are determined to wow the judges this week and with two dances coming up we could be in for a treat, if Kelly’s attitude is anything to go by. ‘I have no fear – bring it on,’ she said. ‘I’m not going to be defeated.’
