Strictly Come Dancing has added another famous face to its star-studded 2022 line-up.
Singer-songwriter Matt Goss, best known as the frontman of 80s pop band Bros, is the eighth celebrity to be confirmed for the next series of the BBC dance competition.
“I’m extremely nervous and excited, but I’m optimistic because I’m very flexible from the knees down,” she said in a statement.

Bros broke up in 1992 but rose to fame in recent years following the release of the BAFTA award-winning documentary After the Screaming Stops. In addition to his work in the music world, Goss is also a best-selling author with new books in the works.
However, the star’s next venture will see him join a whole host of celebrities on the dance floor for this year’s Strictly season.
Representing the acting world, Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps actor Will Mellor and Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh have signed up for the show.
There’s also a wide range of presenters in this year’s line-up, including BBC Radio 2 star Richie Anderson, Loose Women’s Kaye Adams, KISS FM radio DJ Tyler West and comedian and Snackmasters presenter Jayde Adams .
Paralympian Ellie Simmonds was also recently announced for the show and confessed that despite her excitement, she is “petrified” to throw some forms on national television.

In keeping with tradition, each celebrity will be paired with a strictly professional when the show returns to screens this fall as they battle it out to win the iconic glitter ball trophy.
Last year, the competition was won by EastEnders actress Rose Ayling-Ellis and her dance partner Giovanni Pernice.
The upcoming series in 2022 will mark a milestone for Strictly Come Dancing as the show enters its 20th series.
Strictly Come Dancing is broadcast on BBC One.
