As if The X Factor: Celebrity couldn't get any better, what with The Islanders tiding us over till 'winter' Love Island and The Chase star Jenny Ryan's spectacular return, we can now look forward to proper-rugby-lads Try Star STRIPPING in this weekend's live shows.
Yep - Thom Evans, Levi Davis and Ben Foden are ready to 'give the public what they want' after winning the judges over with their audition track No Diggity (if you missed it, the thrusting was something to behold and the vocals...happened.)
Chatting to The Sun{
"You know those chaps in Christina Aguilera’s Dirrty video? That’s the look we’re going for on the first live show."
At might be a mere 14°C at the time of publication, but we're quite frankly sweating at the thought. Blimey.

Speaking to heat, Eyal said: "We want to be a successful band. Release a few songs. And then go on tour. I’d love to work with Ed Sheeran."

Matt Stevens
After the competition, Matt continued to play rugby until January 2009 when he tested positive for cocaine and faced a two year ban. Once this had been lifted he returned back to South Africa to join the Sharks.
Chris Moyles
Chris Moyles has always been a familiar voice on the radio, becoming BBC Radio 1's longest serving breakfast presenter in 2009. However, in 2012, he announced that he would be leaving his iconic breakfast show. Yet, he soon returned to the airwaves in 2015, this time returning with a brand new show on the newly re-branded Radio X.
The Chefs
After coming fifth, the chefs did not carry on making music. Jean-Christophe Novelli appeared on many television shows such as Family Fortunes, Countryfile and The Apprentice, as well as launching his recipe book Simply Novelli in 2013.Aldo Zilli has worked with various companies such as Thompson Airways and Kraft Foods to prepare recipes, as well as becoming a brand ambassador for CocoPacific in 2016.Paul Rakin has been a regular chef on BBC cookery programme Ready Steady Cook and has recently bought a restaurant on the Isle-Of-Skye.Ross Burden sadly passed away in 2014 due to an infection relating to treatment for leukemia.
Nikki Sanderson
While she didn't carry on with her music career, Nikki stayed on our TV screens starring in Heartbeat, Hollyoaks, and won the Best Actress award at the British Soap Awards in 2014.
James and Rebecca
The Battle of The Stars wasn't enough competition for Rebecca Loos as she went on to take part in the Spanish show Survivor and Sky TV's _Cirque de Celebrite._James Hewitt's career seemed to quieten down after the competition, with his only TV appearance being Top Gear in the same year. James unfortunately suffered from a heart attack and stroke in 2017. He is said to have recovered well.
Michelle Marsh
Placing seventh in The Battle of the Stars didn't put Michelle off, as she released the tune that was 'I Don't Do' only a few months after the competition. She played minor roles in a few television series for the next couple of years, until 2010 when she announced she was planning on focusing on her children and developing her singing career.
Gillian McKeith
After Battle of the Stars, Gillian was given many opportunities within reality television. While she may have starred in programmes such as Supersize vs Superskinny and Celebrity Big Brother, can anything really top her performance in I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!?
Debbie and Paul
Coming last in The Battle of the Stars did not discourage Debbie from competitions, as she went on to take part in Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Masterchef. She's also hosted her own radio show, The Debbie McGee show, since 2008.Paul Daniels unfortunately passed away in 2016 due to a brain tumour.
Bandmate Wes chipped in: "People go on The X Factor with no musical background and end up so successful, so there’s no reason it can’t happen to us. We’re bringing the shock factor."
He added, "We just want to be known for something other than dating."
The X Factor: Celebrity continues Saturday October 26th on ITV.
