Alison Hammond Backtracks After Strictly Come Dancing Hosting Comments
However, it seems she may have spoken too soon.
Reacting to headlines claiming she’d “turned down” an offer to host Strictly, she told Metro: “Do you think I would turn down Strictly if Strictly came along? Who would turn down Strictly! They’d be absolutely crazy.”
She claimed: “I was trying to back them off because ultimately everyone keeps putting my name in the mix and they’re ruining my chances of even getting on to Strictly, d’you know what I mean?”
“You all need to stop talking about it because I need to get in,” Alison added, before insisting: “I’m not too busy, I’m fitter than I’ve ever been before. I can do Strictly. I can do it all.”
After confirming last week that she’d been approached about hosting Strictly, Alison explained to Radio Times: “I’m so busy, babes, that I’m not sure it’s going to happen. It’s unrealistic. I’m so happy they considered me but, like Traitors, I can’t do it because everything clashes.
“I would have loved to have done it – anybody that gets it, they’re going to land the perfect job. But I’m so happy with everything I’ve got. What would I drop, to do Strictly?”
