Ahead of the launch of her campaign with Tu clothing at Sainsbury’s to celebrate body confidence, Kitty opened up about the backstage dance lessons she got with the pro dancer while competing on MasterChef.

Kitty later admitted how she received exclusive training from the Russian dancer on some of the key moves needed for the foxtrot and the jive during their time together on the BBC cooking show.

She went on: “And then she’s show me like, ‘This is this dance, this is the foxtrot, this is the jive’ and I was like, ‘Get me on Strictly, I’m ready. I’m ready to go on Strictly’.

“These are the shows that I grew up watching and I love telly, I love good British TV”.

The performer went on to gush over how grateful she was to compete on the slew of reality shows she has taken part in since she rose to fame last year.

The Brummy queen added: “I never thought I’d be on MasterChef, hell I never even thought I’d be on Drag Race but the fact that Drag Race has opened these doors now is amazing.

“I would kill to go on any of them, it would be like completing one of those childhood dreams, I’d love to go on Dancing on Ice or go in the jungle, do you know what I mean? I’d love to go on any of them.”

It comes after Kitty collaborated with the supermarket giant Sainsbury’s Tu Clothing to unveil the first ever dynamic changing room where customers could test out clothes on a treadmill.

New research found that two thirds (65 per cent) of people confirmed they like to move around when trying on clothes to make sure they feel confident in them.

The larger-than-life Drag Race Queen said of the new campaign: “Body confidence is so important, and I want people to share how I feel as a Drag Queen, empowered and happy, strutting their own confidence with pride.

“Changing rooms can be a scary place and you need to feel good about yourself. It’s important, babes.”
