STRICTLY star Richie Anderson has revealed "gruesome" injuries ahead of tonight's second performance. Radio 2 host Richie, 34, who is partnered with pro dancer Giovanni Pernice, said the gruelling training has left him with some grim feet injuries. "I’ve lost two toenails.
I’ve got two black toes, and I’ve got a bruise on the side of my foot," he told the Metro this week. Richie asked the Italian dancer, 32, if it was "normal to have lost toenails" and suffered bruising on his feet, to which Giovanni revealed that Richie only wears normal shoes instead of dancing shoes.
