Strictly Come Dancing 2024 Cast Revealed

Strictly Come Dancing's 2024 season, kicking off on September 14, has been marred by controversy and leaked pairings ahead of its launch show. Despite receiving mixed reactions from fans about this year's celebrity lineup, which features the smallest female cast in the show's history, the BBC expressed delight with the new contestants. The season will highlight the return of professional dancer Amy Dowden, who recently battled breast cancer, and introduce Chris McCausland as the first blind contestant. Social media buzz suggests excitement over certain pairings, while critiques over the absence of same-sex couples and a perceived lack of star power continue. The 20th anniversary season promises to deliver glitzy performances and behind-the-scenes moments, though it also faces scrutiny due to recent bullying allegations. The show's format maintains a blend of pre-recorded segments and live performances, ensuring a captivating experience for viewers.
