‘Strictly Come Dancing’: Alexandra Burke Has A Big Challenge On Her Hands For This Weekend’s Live Show

Alexandra Burke has a big challenge on her hands this weekend, as she’s been tasked with performing the first Argentine Tango of this year’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The former ‘X Factor’ winner has been a frontrunner throughout the competition, and now that this week’s songs and dances have been announced, Alexandra and partner Gorka Marquez will no doubt be taking the opportunity to hold onto their place with their Argentine Tango, set to ‘Mi Confesion’ by Gotan Project.

After bagging the first perfect score of the series last week, Debbie McGee and Giovanni Pernice will be dancing the Salsa to ‘I Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You’ by Boys Town Gang.

Meanwhile, last week’s results show was a less successful night for Mollie King and AJ Pritchard, who wound up in the bottom two for the second time this series.

It’s been confirmed that this week the couple will be hopefully turning things around with their Paso Doble routine to ‘Layla’ by Derek and the Dominoes.

Here’s the full list of what the stars and their partners will be performing this week…
