Duncan James is nervous about stepping out in lycra this Saturday night on ITV’s Dancing On Ice as he doesn’t want his fans to think he looks fat.

The singer, 28, told The Sun: “I’ve had a back problem for over 10 years and I’ve got to wear a big strap under my Lycra top to support it so I will look fat even though I’ve lost about half a stone during training.

“I don’t want to look as if I’ve got a big belly as I don’t want to end up like Andi Peters who the judge Jason Gardiner called ‘a Teletubby’ in last year’s series.�
