“I’d really like to do a big dance film like Step Up or Fame That would be my ultimate dream”

HOW DID YOU GET INTO DANCE?

My babysitter used to do a dance class when she looked after me and I went with her and sat in the corner. So it was natural that I decided to have a go myself. I was ten at the time.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE SONG TO DANCE TO?

Hmmm… I like a bit of Lady Gaga.

WHAT’S THE GREATEST DANCING FEAR YOU HAVE?

To break my leg on stage in front of an audience!

BEST PHYSICAL FEATURE?

My hair – I grew it myself!

WORST HABIT YOU HAVE WHILE DANCING?

Definitely clicking as I dance. I always do it. And when I’m partnering sometimes I mark time with my mouth – it’s very annoying for whoever’s dancing with me.

WHAT’S YOUR MOST EMBARASSING MOMENT ON STAGE?
When I was doing Fame in the West End I did partner work and my partner fell on top of me. We were rolling about and she couldn’t get off me. She knocked me straight on my back and every time we rolled to get up we both rolled the same way – we were stuck on the floor for what seemed like an eternity.

WHY DID YOU ENTER THE COMPETITION?

Because it’s a brilliant opportunity to push dancers to the forefront instead of being behind somebody and I was looking forward to working with lots of different choreographers, to really push myself.
