Chicago to welcome Dancing on Ice stars?
Two of the contestants on Dancing on Ice seem to have impressed the producers of Chicago.
Monday, 1 March 2010
West End musical Chicago could be set to welcome two new cast members in the form of Dancing on Ice stars Hayley Tamaddon and Dan Whiston.
Reports in the Daily Star suggest that the pair - who are friends in real life as well as being partners while in the rink - are in talks with the show's producers, who are eager to sign them both up.
"There is clear chemistry between them, you can see that on and off the ice rink. It's only natural that casting directors are looking at them as a package," an unnamed source told the newspaper.
Tamaddon is no stranger to showbiz, having starred in Emmerdale and reality TV show Soapstar Superstar.
Meanwhile, Whiston is also a trained dancer and singer.
Last month, it was announced that Ruthie Henshall, a former judge on Dancing on Ice, is to continue playing Roxie Hart in Chicago until April 18th 2010.
