MOTSI MABUSE
‘The feelgood factor is more important than ever this year. We can bring that energy’
Motsi Mabuse has a spring in her step. Bringing her signature whirlwind of energy, enthusiasm and warmth to the set of our exclusive photoshoot, the South African star is dancing on air as she confirms to HELLO! she will be waltzing back onto our screens to resume her role as judge on this year’s Strictly Come Dancing .
“I’m excited to breathe in the Strictly air again and to be part of the buzz,” the professional dancer tells HELLO! in this exclusive interview – her first this year – ahead of polishing up her score paddles for the hit BBC1 dancing show, scheduled to air later this autumn.
“I’m very thankfulhave asked me back. I don’t think I’ll do anything differently this time, but being able to come back has given me the confirmation I need to believe in myself,” says the 39-year-old, who looks very much at home in the glamorous surroundings of the Ameron Frankfurt Neckarvillen Boutique hotel, not far from where she lives in Germany with her husband Evgenij Voznyuk and their two-year-old daughter.
