Musical icon Lulu is a singing sensation, with a career that has spanned five decades and included collaborations with the likes of David Bowie, Take That, Elton John and Paul McCartney. Among her most famous hits are Eurovision winner Boom Bang A Bang and the Bond theme The Man With The Golden Gun. An all round entertainer Lulu has also appeared in TV shows, including a guest appearance in Absolutely Fabulous and numerous entertainment shows, as well as previously hosting her own show on Radio 2. Will it be a case of Boom Bang a Bang when she takes to the dancefloor or will she be able to light the judges' fires with her moves?

What made you decide to do the show?

I did Let's Dance For Comic Relief earlier this year and performed Soulja Boy's Crank That. I had so much fun!

What are you looking for from your professional partner?

Someone with the most patience! And someone I can have fun with would be a bonus.

You're used to playing large venues – are you nervous about potentially performing in front of 6,500 Strictly fans at Wembley?

Yes!! I wouldn't be if I was singing but this is something completely out of my comfort zone.
