Speaking about being on Strictly, Michelle said “Getting to do Strictly in my favourite place on Earth is an actual DREAM!
"I'm so excited to show that being 50 doesn't mean life stops. Things may not work like they did when I was 20, but 50 also means “FABULOUS!”
"There are plenty of women like me out there who still “got it” and we still “plan to use it!” so slap on the sequins, point me to the dance floor and watch me Paso my Doble!”
