Former Spice Girl Emma Bunton has signed up to star in Strictly Come Dancing', the UK version of
Dancing With The Stars’. Baby Spice will be strutting her ballroom stuff alongside several soap stars including EastEnders' star Louise Lytton (aka Ruby),
Coro Street’ star Ray Fearon (Nathan the mechanic), and former Bad Girls' and
Emmerdale’ actress Claire King. The 30-year-old, who has disappeared off the celeb radar of late, is also rumoured to be replacing Beyoncé Knowles in the sequel to Steve Martin’s hit comedy `The Pink Panther’. “I loved making the movie but with the new album I am way too busy to fit the second movie in,” Beyoncé says.
