Sinitta has admitted that her former boyfriend and current crush Simon Cowell was shocked when he heard she would be appearing on ITV’s Dancing On Ice.

Speaking at today’s press launch of the show the So Macho singer said:

“I managed to keep it a secret for a while until I finally told Simon. He said, ‘Are you out of your mind?’ and actually seemed quite shocked about the whole thing.”

“I’m not sure if that’s because he thinks it’s funny or if he thinks I’m going to embarrass him because he knows I can’t skate. Well, I can definitely skate better now than I ever could so I asked him if he’ll come and watch the show. He said he would if I made the final – but I’ve got a feeling I may have to persuade him to come down a bit sooner than that!”

Sinitta also hopes to wow the public with her daring outfits on the show. She laughed:

“I don’t care how crazy, silly, ridiculous or mad I look. I would definitely want to break out one of my most bonkers Sinitta outfits and celebrate any success I might have in style.”

Can it get any worse than the leaves or the gold bikini? Please don’t do it Sinitta!
