Ore Oduba to host Strictly Come Dancing tour

ICONINSIDER — Ore Oduba is to host the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ live tour again.
The 33-year-old presenter – who won the show in 2016 – has been confirmed to present the 2019 arena shows and even suggested he may treat fans to his famous jive once again.
He said in a statement: “”I had the best time hosting the 2018 tour, the Strictly fans were as loud and excitable as ever. And I’m sure 2019 will be no different, we’ve got a sensational show planned. And yes – when we hit the road in January – I will be packing my dancing shoes!”
Already confirmed for the tour this year are Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell, Dr. Ranj Singh and Janette Manrara, and Stacey Dooley, who will be dancing with Aljaz Skorjanec, rather than her show partner Kevin Clifton, who is committed to stage show ‘Rock of Ages’.
And while Stacey is upset not to be working with Kevin, she’s excited about dancing with Aljaz, who was partnered with Kate Silverton on this year’s show.
She said in a statement: “I will miss Kev, but I am looking forward to putting Aljaz through his paces.
“I’m loving this experience so much. I know people always say that, but it’s so true. To be able to go on tour and perform for the fans all over the UK is such an honour. I’m so excited!”
Ore is very excited about the tour line-up so far.
He tweeted: “Oh yeah @SCD_Live_Tour this line up is sizzling… even more pumped and excited for next year!! Can’t wait to see who else is hitting the road with us in 2019… who could it be? #strictlytour.(sic)”
Judges Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell, Shirley Ballas and Bruno Tonioli will also be involved in the tour.
