Beyonce to appear on Strictly AND the X Factor
24/10/2008 - 15:26
R&B star Beyonce is apparently going to perform on both Strictly Come Dancing and The X Factor.
The superstar agreed to perform two songs on the final show of The X Factor on December 16, according to the Daily Mirror.
But then Strictly bosses waltzed in and signed the star for the end of November, much to the dismay of ITV, according to the Mirror.
A BBC source told the newspaper: "As far as we are concerned we are the No 1 show on Saturday. If The X Factor wants Beyonce, they'll have to wait. She has signed and we've also got Take That confirmed for the coming weeks."
And a source from The X Factor added: "We aren't happy Beyonce is doing Strictly, but she is just one of a number of huge names we're getting. We've also got Mariah Carey and Britney Spears so we feel that we've got the best line-up."
