Strictly Come Dancing star John Whaite has undergone a complete glam transformation ahead of his debut.
The Great British Bake Off winner is set to appear on the new series of the hit BBC One dancing staple – its 19th series – which returns to our screens next weekend.
John, who won the third series of Bake Off in 2012 and co-presents Channel 4 chat show Steph’s Packed Lunch, will make history as part of the first ever same-sex male dancing couple on the show.
He is clearly enjoying the glamour of being part of the Strictly 2021 cast and took to Instagram on Friday to share a behind-the-scenes video.
In the cheeky clip, John can be seen tugging on his tiny black pants to show off his tan lines.
A spray tan tent can be seen in the background as John poses for the short video.
John penend: “I came prepared and brought my own thong for the Strictly spray tan. Nat and Marie made this boy feel at home while they scrubbed me and sprayed me in the shade of Venetian Plus.
Unsurprisingly, the TV star’s latest Instagram grid update caught the attention of his 109,000 followers, with some rushing to leave a flirt message for him in the comment section.
One fan penned: “Looking good.”
Another added: “John you really are the best.”
A third person gushed: “More of this please.”
While a fourth social media user said: “You’re such a tease.”
John’s latest social media display comes after he revealed he got his big call-up for Strictly whilst he was in the supermarket.
Speaking on Packed Lunch to host Steph McGovern on Tuesday, John admitted he was strolling around the supermarket when he got the shock call.
In fact, he confessed that he had to sneak out of the shop with his partner Paul Atkins, presumably to avoid the huge news spreading to the public.
Steph asked John: “What was that call like, how did it work?”
John, 32, replied: “Well I got the call when I was in the supermarket on the frozen food aisle.
“So I had to whisper to Paul, I was like ‘I’m gonna be on Strictly!’ and he went ‘Oh my god, let’s get out of here!'”
John went on to explain that he and Paul drove home in silence as they didn’t know how to process the massive news.
He went on: “And then we got in the car and drove home in silence because we didn’t know how to process it like, I don’t think we’ve still spoken about it very much because it’s massive, isn’t it?”
Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One on Saturday September 18
