After spending this week training in the same dance studio, the boys from ITV’s TV show Grease Is The Word, reckon they could beat the boys from BBC’s Any Dream Will Do in a fight.

Grease Is The Word contestant Michael Quinn said: “We could take the Joseph boys any day of the week. If we bumped into them in a dark alley, I’ve got no doubt us boys would kick their loincloth asses!”

Bradley Clarkson, also from the ITV entertainment show, added: “The Joseph boys have been using the same dance studios as us for training. We were tempted to rush in the other day and have a big dance-off, as I’ve no doubt we’ve got better moves than them.”

The Judges took the decision to pair Michael and Vicky together for the live shows because they felt that they have a very real chemistry together and looked great as a couple.

No stranger to the stage, 24-year-old Michael Quinn has worked on numerous shows including a tour of Joesph, Jailhouse Rock and Beauty and the Beast.

Currently living with his girlfriend of two years in Lewisham, Michael admits he is a massive John Travolta fan but is worried what the judges will say on the show.
