Will Mellor has shared why he really wants to win Strictly Come Dancing and what he'd do with the Glitterball trophy if he does ahead of the show's semi-final. with dance partner Nancy Xu.
Will, from Bredbury, Stockport, will perform his couple's choice dance with his partner Nancy to an assortment of 1990s tracks – including Fools Gold by The Stone Roses and Happy Mondays’ track Step On as he pays homage to Will growing up in the decade which he says was the "first time I could go out and meet girls and dance."
Will and Nancy will also perform a Paso Doble to a remix of Uccen by Taalbi brothers and DWTS which will feature him wearing a cloak and using it as a prop. He said he hoped he wouldn’t suffer a wardrobe malfunction like Madonna, who in 2015 was sent tumbling down the stairs during a performance at the Brit awards while trying to remove her matador-inspired cape mid-song.
"But if I can’t and I don’t, I’ll be very proud of completing the journey so I’m going to do everything I can to try and complete this journey with my amazing dance partner,” he said. Speaking about his mum and why he took part in the show in the first place, he added: "Giving her something to look forward to was a massive aim because she’s on her own since I lost my dad.
