It's no secret that many celebs see Strictly as one of the ultimate shows to join, but Gemma it appears doesn't see it that way.The GC continued: "I don’t fall over myself to do anything, never have and never will.

If you live your life dreaming of getting onto Strictly you need to go out and get into nature."
