TV star Vicky Pattison has allegedly been offered a place dancing on this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.

The 37-year-old media personality is said to have grabbed the attention of producers when she supported pal Pete Wicks from the wings of last year’s series – and now bosses want to bring her onto the dancefloor.

A source told The Sun: “Vicky loved watching Pete on the series and was in awe of the detail that goes into every performance.

“She has great energy and will no doubt be a hit with the viewers.

“Vicky's done plenty of reality shows but is ready to be out of her comfort zone on the dance floor.”

Pattison soared to fame in 2011 on MTV’s Geordie Shore after being known for her wild nights out and on-screen romances.

Vicky became a household name in 2015 after hitting the screens again on I’m a Celebrity and being crowned Queen of the Jungle – a moment she called the ‘best thing’ she’s ever done.

The Geordie talent revealed last year she wouldn’t say no to Strictly, but confessed that dancing wasn’t her strong suit.

 

She told the Mail: “When I found out Pete was doing it, I called him straight away to check he was alright.

“Because me and him are more ‘stand in the corner, drink and have a laugh’ than the ‘centre of the dance floor’ people.”
