Strictly: Stacey Dooley shows off her Paso face
Strictly Come Dancing professional Kevin Clifton has announced he won’t be dancing on next year’s Strictly live tour. Kevin and his celebrity partner Stacey Dooley have been impressing the judges with their routines throughout the current series of the BBC show. But with Kevin's impending exit, Strictly bosses have paired up Stacey to dance with another pro on the tour.
Who will Stacey Dooley dance with on the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour?
Stacey Dooley will be dancing with Strictly pro Aljaz Skorjanec on the Strictly tour.
The Slovenian-born dancer had been paired up with newsreader Kate Silverton for the 2018 series of Strictly.
However, following Kevin’s withdrawal from the live tour, he was selected as his replacement to dance with Stacey.
Aljaz has been a stalwart on Strictly since his debut in 2013 alongside model Abbey Clancy.
Abbey and Aljaz went on to win the eleventh series of the BBC One dance contest, seeing off the likes of Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Brendan Cole, and Rachel Riley and Pasha Kovalev.
Since then, Aljaz has gone on to perform with celebrities including Gemma Atkinson and Alison Hammond.
Kevin Clifton also made his debut appearance on Strictly the same year as Aljaz Skorjanec.
Kevin Clifton was forced to pull out of the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour due to other work commitments.
Whilst the Strictly tour is taking place, Kevin will be playing Stacee Jax on stage on the Rock of Ages tour.
The Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour kicks off in Birmingham on Friday, January 18, 2019.
The tour will then run for 20 dates until Sunday, February 10.
Unfortunately for Strictly and Kevin Clifton fans, however, Kevin debuts on the Rock of Ages tour on Tuesday, January 22.
Kevin will be performing the role of Stacee Jax on stage until April 6 before heading on a two-month break to rejoin the Burn the Floor tour.
The Strictly star will then head up and down the country alongside his BBC One show co-stars Graziano Di Prima and Dianne Buswell as they perform for Burn the Floor fans.
Kevin’s hectic work schedule doesn’t stop there, as he’ll be back performing on the Rock of Ages tour from June 11.
Strictly Come Dancing continues every Saturday and Sunday on BBC One
