Alesha Dixon tour date moved! Thursday 9th July 2009
Alesha Dixon tour date moved!

Alesha Dixon has been asked by the BBC to be part of the Strictly Come Dancing Judging panelin the autumn. She will be appearing live on BBC1 for 16 weeks every Saturday night. Unfortunately, this means Alesha will have to reschedule three of her autumn tour dates in Lincoln, Southampton and Brighton due to her commitments to the show. Strictly Come Dancing is very close to Alesha’s heart after winning the show in 2007 and hopes that her amazing fans understand that this is an unmissable opportunity. Alesha says


"I'm so sorry to all my fans for having to change some of my dates. I'm really looking forward to playing live.  I can’t wait for the tour to start as I have been working so hard for a long time to achieve my dream of my first solo tour. I hope everyone can understand due to the emotional connection I have with the show, it was an exciting opportunity I could not turn down."


Over the past year Alesha’s status has rocketed to superstardom. Since shimmying her way into the charts with ‘The Boy Does Nothing’ and ‘Breathe Slow’, she has: sold over one million records in the UK alone; been a personal guest of Gordon and Sarah Brown at Downing Street (Mr Brown dubbed her ‘a national treasure’); and most recently completed an awe inspiring epic climb to the peak of Mt Kilimanjaro helping raise over £3 million for Comic Relief. Not only a household name, Alesha is also an artist at the top of her game, an electrifying dancer with Formula One levels of va-va-voom and an accomplished songwriter and singer with her own unique sound – welcome to The Alesha Show!
