BBC producers are looking to add Liza Minnelli to the Strictly Come Dancing judging panel as a replacement for Alesha Dixon, the Daily Mirror reports. Insiders say Dixon – who replaced original judge Arlene Phillips on the panel last series – did not attract younger viewers to the show in the way bosses hoped and may now be axed in favour of Cabaret star Minnelli.
"Alesha got off to a very shaky start but did improve. Despite this, her future is believed to be hanging by a thread,” a source revealed. "Liza has international appeal and real star billing. She is a singer and dancer and Hollywood through and through. Her experience in the showbiz industry would be a real coup, plus she has the personality to match."
