Get ready for some dancing drama! Fair City's Stephanie Kelly, the talented actress behind Sash Bishop, has revealed her dream co-stars for the popular show Dancing with the Stars. But here's where it gets controversial... she's not just picking anyone; she's got her eye on three specific Fair City actors who she believes would shine on the dancefloor.
In an exclusive interview with RTÉ Entertainment, Kelly shared her excitement about her time on Dancing with the Stars, describing it as one of the career highlights. She gushed about her pro dance partner, Ervinas Merfeldas, and how they've created unforgettable moments together. When pressed about who she'd love to see join her on the show, Kelly didn't hold back, naming Emily Lamey (Gwen), Joe Hanley (Hughie), and George McMahon (Mondo) as her top picks.
"I think they'd bring so much energy and fun to the competition!" Kelly enthused. "But whether they'll actually take the plunge is anyone's guess!"
And this is the part most people miss... Kelly and Merfeldas have been brainstorming a Fair City script twist! They're toying with the idea of Merfeldas playing Sash's long-lost brother. Talk about a potential storyline that would keep viewers on the edge of their seats!
For now, the dynamic duo is focused on their upcoming performance, a "spooky Salsa" to Cascada's Evacuate the Dancefloor on Fright Night. With the pressure on and sore feet to boot, Kelly is still relishing every moment of the show. Her pride and gratitude for this opportunity shine through in every word.
"I never imagined I'd make it this far, but here I am, halfway through the competition!" she exclaimed. "It's a dream come true, and I'm so grateful for the chance to showcase my skills and have some fun along the way."
So, what do you think? Should Kelly's co-stars take the plunge and join her on Dancing with the Stars? Or is this just a fun fantasy? We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! Dancing with the Stars airs Sundays at 6:30 pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player. Don't miss out on the glitter and glamour!
