The Saturdays' Mollie King Is The First Contestant Confirmed For Strictly Come Dancing
She's all fired up to take on the ballroom.
Mollie King is about to become the second Saturdays singer to take to the BBC ballroom, following in the footsteps of her bandmate Frankie Bridge who came runner-up in 2014.
The 30-year-old is the first celebrity contestant to be announced for this year's Strictly Come Dancing and understandably she is pretty excited about the whole thing.
She told Nick Grimshaw on BBC Radio 1: "I'm so excited I can talk about it. I've known for quite a while and I'm so bad at keeping secrets."
"I only told my mum and dad, you have to tell them. I told my sisters Laura and Ellen and then Frankie (Bridge). She is the only other person I told because she had done strictly three years ago," Mollie revealed on the airwaves on Monday.

Here's hoping Moll's can emulate Frankie's ballroom success since she came second only to Caroline Flack when she took on the show.
The former runner-up has been giving her some top-tips and is totally rooting for her, Mollie revealed: "She (Frankie) was so excited, she was driving and had to pull over."
Mollie has clearly got a bit of a competitive side since she's planning to go for gold.
She said: "I start rehearsals in a couple of weeks and it's on TV in September. I do want to win, I don't want to be out in the first week, that would be so embarrassing."
And what is she most looking forward to? The spray tan and sequin makeover, obvs.
Now why take a trip down memory lane and watch The Saturdays perform issues for MTV Sessions...
Sometimes
I feel like I'm going out of
My mind
Boy, the way you do me it's a
Damn crime
But, then you smile at me
And it's all right
With you there ain't no in between
Every time that I walk out the door
Tell myself I won't take it no more
There's a part of me won't let you go
I keep saying yes but, my mind's sayin' no
Me and my heart we got issues
Don't know if I should hate you or miss you
Damn, I wish that I could resist you
Can't decide if I should slap you or kiss you
Me and my heart we got issues, issues, issues
We got issues, issues, issues
It's awful, boy you leave me hangin' for so long
You empty out my love until it's all gone
You change the words but, still it's the same song
I'm tired of the melody
Change my number and throw out your clothes
But, my feeling for you, it still shows
I keep building the walls 'round my heart
But, then I see you, it all falls apart
Me and my heart we got issues
Don't know if I should hate you or miss you
Damn, I wish that I could resist you
Can't decide if I should slap you or kiss you
Me and my heart we got issues, issues, issues
We got issues, issues, issues
Why fight it
Can't hide it
Truth is I think I like it
Confusion, illusion
Still I don't know which way to go
Me and my heart we got issues
Don't know if I should hate you or miss you
Damn, I wish that I could resist you
Can't decide if I should slap you or kiss you
Me and my heart we got issues
Don't know if I should hate you or miss you
Damn, I wish that I could resist you
Can't decide if I should slap you or kiss you
Me and my heart we got issues, issues, issues
We got issues, issues, issues
