She’ll be unreal.

… Which is a bit unfair because she’s been dancing since the age of literal three, but yeah OK sure, we’ll go with it.

Former Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts has been confirmed as the third celebrity appearing in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.

This comes after former Steps singer Faye Tozer and Capital FM DJ Vick Hope were reported to be lined up for the autumn show.

The Sun reports that Roberts was picked as the programme’s token “sexy signing” despite the fact that she has a lot of other talents apart from just being attractive.

She’s basically a professional dancer and she’s somehow managed to sign up for this amateur dancing show for Christ sake, that’s impressive in itself.

Roberts started dancing at the age of three and is probably best known for being one of the members of the beloved Pussycat Dolls.

The band originally started out as a burlesque group and eventually made their way into the charts with a string of hits including Don’t Cha, Buttons, and the iconic Beep.

And they were, of course, all amazing dancers.

Roberts moved out of the charts a few years back and tried her hand at being a Dancing on Ice judge. Before that she came runner-up in I’m a Celeb so, you know, she’s making her way around the reality talent shows.

Fair play to her.
