She tweeted: "Excited to be performing on @bbcstrictly Christmas special with @ianwaite on Christmas Day. Better get my dancing shoes on (sic)"

Rufus has been partnered with Flavia Cacace and joked he will be the one taking the lead on the dancefloor.

He tweeted: "So, yes. Doing Strictly Xmas Special. They asked me if I wanted to learn to tango with Flavia Cacace. So, like I said, I'm doing it.

"I now realise she's on Twitter! @FlaviaCacace You should follow her. I have to lead her. #dancejoke (sic)"
