(and for those interested in pairings - he is listed as 6 ft. (so fairly tall....). Perhaps one for Katya?

Would suit either katya or erin

I wouldn't be surprised lol haven't had Nicky Byrne yet. But Matt Lapinskas was in another of my games and he got to either the quarters or the semis (think it was the semis).

I'm pretty sure he'll win, even if he turns out to be average, Westlife still have a loyal army of fans who will vote for him regardless.
urgh, sorry, cant abide any of Westlife

Yes he is fair with his physical appearance - which combined with his height of 5ft 9 makes me think Kristina

Lol, so we have both height AND hair colour to take into consideration now?

I'm still going for him and Flav - Team Flicky for the win!

With the pro's finding out on Thursday who's back, hopefully it'll leak to us not long after that Oh I love this part of the year with all the speculation and measuring up celebs for our fave pro's etc just as much as the actual months the show's on

I'm not keen on Westlife's music - I find it bland and formulaic but despite that I can see that Nicky is a good signing for Strictly.......they are very successful - so I'm sure lots of their fans will be tuning in especially for him as well as many more viewers from the Emerald Isle. Whenever I've seen WL interviewed they've always come across as nice lads too.......obviously we can't be certain that he's going to be a good dancer but I think there's good chance he will be and hopefully if they match him with the right pro we'll get an entertaining partnership

There's enough here to think that he can be pretty good. Not as good as having been trained to dance, but learning short bits of simple choreography worked OK for Alesha and Rachel.

Just need another 6 with similar potential and it would be a good series.

WOW - He is FAB! He would be a great signing for the show, so I really hope he is on, and it will be a lucky pro who gets him!

So has Nicky acutally confirmed or is it just tabloid speculation ATM

And yes it does look like he'll be a great dancer if they manage to get him

Tabloid speculation I think but apparently he is in 'final talks' and is keen to do it.

Ooooh I hope they manage to get him to sign on the dotted line.......I know some think that Kristina or Ola are the best match for him but I think our Flav is.......yes I know we're biased they would be like Fire and Ice
