Roman Kemp auditioned for ‘Strictly’ but found it difficult

Roman Kemp revealed that he had tried to Come dance strictly but I decided it was too much work.

The radio DJ said he was approached by the show’s bosses, so he went to audition.

He had a blast but soon realized that the competition on the Strictly dancefloor would take a lot of effort.

Roman spilled the beans as he appeared on The Jonathan Ross Show alongside his father, Spandau Ballet star Martin Kemp.

Martin was asked if he would like to try the ballroom pageant and he replied that he would, even though he thought he would be out in the first round because his “knees are so bad.”

Roman intervened: “I would like to do it, they asked me to.”

“I ended up going, it’s like an audition… if I’m totally honest, I had a good time, but it’s too much effort.”

“It’s so hard. It’s so hard,” he added.

The 28-year-old also joked that he would only sign up for the BBC’s program if he could dance with professional Oti Mabuse, who was also a guest on Jonathan Ross’ show.

While Strictly apparently isn’t for Roman, it was another reality show that really saw him make a name for himself.

The star has been featured on radio and television for several years but was propelled into the limelight when he appeared in I’m a celebrity… Get me out of here! in 2019.

Roman finished third in the competition, finishing behind runner-up Andy Whyment and Queen of the Jungle Jacqueline Jossa.
