Strictly Come Dancing contestant Alex Jones has claimed that she found it impossible to feel sexy on the programme.
The One Show host, who was eliminated with Holly Valance in the BBC contest's semi-final this weekend, dismissed "ridiculous" suggestions that she must have enjoyed the glamour of ballroom.
"Who in their right mind is going to feel sexy going out on a Saturday night in front of 12 million people, doing a dance they've never done before?" she hit back at The Sun.
"It's a ridiculous idea! Did I feel sexy? No, I didn't, funnily - because I was absolutely terrified!"
Jones went on to clarify that her lack of confidence in her dancing skills was not a comment on the ability of her professional partner James Jordan.
"It's just been such a brilliant, positive experience," she said. " I was awful [but] James has done great work. Everybody would like to think they have some sort of rhythm, but I soon discovered I have none."
Harry Judd, Chelsee Healey and Jason Donovan will compete in the Strictly Come Dancing final on Saturday (December 17) at 7pm on BBC One.
