Grease Is The Word judge Sinitta once auditioned for the role of Sandy in a West End revival of the popular musical.
However, she was turned down by theatre impresario David Ian, who is now one of her colleagues on the new reality TV show.
She recalled: "I have met David Ian once before. I actually auditioned for (him) for the part of Sandy back in 1993 and I got down to the final two, but obviously never got the part or the chance to be the first black Sandy.
"I think he pretended that I was another Sinitta on the first day of filming but I made sure that he knew that I was the same one!"
