Bros star Matt Goss has dismissed rumours he will be a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing.

The singer has previously performed as a musical guest on the show and took part in the Christmas special in 2013.

“To be honest with you, I prefer to sing. I think Bros should go on there to sing and perform.”

Speaking as he and his twin brother Luke unveiled their new single Love Can Make You Fly on the roof of the O2 Arena, he said he had been surprised by the online speculation he was a contestant.

“I saw that there had been a rumour I was on Strictly but we’re actually in Australia doing some reunion shows over there.”

The band, who formed in 1986 and rose to fame with their 1987 hit When Will I Be Famous?, are playing two comeback shows at the O2 Arena on August 19 and 20, but will not be joined by former member Craig Logan, who left the band in 1989.
