The No Regrets hitmaker – whose cousin Tulisa Contostavlos is a judge on rival show X Factor – thinks he would be a great competitor on the BBC talent show, which this year features Louis Smith, Jerry Hall and Victoria Pendleton, because he is a good mover.

He told We Love Pop magazine: “I would love to go on Strictly Come Dancing. I’ve got good rhythm, of course.”

Despite his cousin and N-Dubz bandmate Tulisa becoming a huge star on X Factor, Dappy claims he is not jealous of her success because they are “completely different”.

He said: “I’ve never, ever been jealous of Tulisa, because we do completely different things.

“I’m too down to earth and too humble to have a grudge over my cousin who is a female.”

Dappy may be inclined to do Strictly because he believes his behaviour has changed from when he was younger and in N-Dubz.

He added: “I’ve gone smarter. N-Dubz was the teenage years. No you’ll see a different kind of swag.”
