Sam Thompson has revealed whether he would follow Pete Wicks on the Strictly dancefloor and which dance he would want to do if he signed up for the BBC One program.
Sam Thompson has revealed whether or not he’d do hit show Strictly Come Dancing and which “dicey” dance he’d want to try out. The former Made in Chelsea star is best mates with Pete Wicks, who got to the semi-final last year.
When asked if he’d ever do Strictly, Sam told the Mirror: “I don’t know. I’ve never been a talent guy. I don’t really have a talent. That was the reason I’m A Celebrity was so good for me, I didn’t have to do anything. I just had to go and make friends.”
He emphasized that it would be “funny” if he attempted to perform Strictly but that he fears his nerves would interfere with his performance. I don’t know how good I would be because I’m very anxious and overthink everything. But it would be amusing in itself.
Sam and Pete co-host a podcast called Staying Relevant, and he claims that doing Strictly would be a “luxury” if he so desired. If he said, “If I thought the time was right.” “Then yes”.
When asked what kind of dance he wanted to do, he initially said, “Where I’d be skipping and tapping my toes,” before revising and choosing something more “romantic” and “dicey.”
What’s the truly romantic one, exactly? The Viennese Waltz and The Waltz! That’s where everyone interacts with one another in a very conflictsome way. I’d love to do something similar because it gets very close.
Sam continued to claim that he believes he would be the first one out, but he does practice some dance moves. “Pete taught me to dance in any case.” Without even knowing what Strictly was, Pete entered the show as a complete novice. “Pete is amazing, he is actually amazing at dancing now.”
Though Sam isn’t competing this year, Pete is still heading to live shows to support a pal, as his friend Vicky Pattison is taking part. The Geordie Shore star has been partnered with Kai Widdrington. In the first week, they danced a Cha Cha Cha to Ella Eyre’s Best of My Love and followed that this week with a Foxtrot to Rein Me In by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean.

Vicky attended the Staying Relevant live performance at the O2 in September. She praised Pete on Instagram and called his accomplishments “incredible.”
Sam claimed in a statement to the Mirror that Pete is his “one constant” throughout “massive highs and lows” and that recording a podcast with his best friend was a blessing.
