Ex Atomic Kitten, Liz McLarnon to Judge Bump n Grind 3

Trouble’s hit dance reality TV show, Bump ‘&’ Grind, is back for a third season at 7pm on 6th September, along with a brand new judge, ex-Atomic Kitten and star of Celebrity Love Island, Liz McLarnon.

Super-babe, Liz, will join Trouble’s very own Bump ‘&’ Grind host, Johny Pitts, to judge the life changing dance contest that will see the UK’s hottest free-style dance wannabes, from break dancers, Salsa, Urban, R&B and street-stylers, shake their booties on down to the live final, where one winner only will be awarded a year’s-contract with leading dance agency, AMCK.

Liz and Johny P will be joined on the judging panel by choreographer and professional dancer, Louie Spence, who has been involved in the show since it begun in summer 2004, as well as new signing, US choreographer Darrin Henson, whose track record includes working with Britney Spears and *NSYNC.

Liz McLarnon said, 'It's great to be a part of Trouble's Bump ‘&’ Grind! I'm really looking forward to watching the dancers and giving my feedback; and of course working with the B&G team!'

Following this summer’s auditions in Manchester, Birmingham and London, the finalists will be chosen to join either Louie’s or Darrin’s teams, to be lead and choreographered by them respectively in their own unique styles. The rival teams will then go head-to-head as the contestants’ stamina and versatility is pushed to the max to demonstrate their skills across all dance disciplines.

This year there will be another route to audition. In an unprecedented move, TroubleHomegrown.co.uk will be giving 15 lucky viewers a chance to queue-jump the auditions and gain a guaranteed slot in front of the judges, by submitting a video clip of their best moves to the site, where other users will be able to watch, rate and post comments before the judges select the lucky 15.

The ten-part series of Bump ‘&’ Grind 3 will include the highs, lows, exhilaration and disappointment of the auditions, followed by five energy- charged live studio dance-offs, before the live, nail-biting final.
