Ulrika Johnsson is "in talks" to appear in a celebrity version of the BBC's Fame Academy for comic relief, according to The Sun today.
Other names being touted by the newspaper include Ruby Wax, Jennifer Suanders and comedy partner Dawn French, Ian Wright and Graham Norton.
The BBC is said to be looking for celebrities who can't sing rather than those who can for the series, in order to provide the maximum entertainment value for the fundraiser, which will be held in March.
"We are certainly not looking for the new David Sneddon here," an unnamed source said. "BBC bosses are talking to the biggest names. But they don’t need to be able to sing to get into the Fame Academy."
