Strictly Come Dancing Wants Elena Samodanova, Isabel Edvardsson, And Peta Murgatroyd To Dance Next Season

This rumor keeps surfacing that Strictly Come Dancing in the UK wants Gleb Savchenko’s wife Elena Samodanova to dance in their next season. But, according to OK! Magazine via The Sun, they also want Isabel Edvardsson and Dancing With The Stars Peta Murgatroyd. They can pursue Peta all they want, but, I don’t think this is going to happen. I really hope it’s true about Elena though. Keeps fingers crossed.

GLEB Savchenko’s wife Elena Samodanova is wanted as a new professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing.

The Russian hunk’s partner is one of a number of international female dancers being pursued by the BBC show to replace Ola Jordan, Kristina Rihanoff and Aliona Vilani, who all quit at the close of the 2015 season.

A source told The Sun: “Elena would be perfect on the show and Gleb really missed her last year.

“Losing three such popular dancers will be a real blow unless we move quickly to sign up the best, most creative and captivating dancers.”

Others being chased as potential new stars are Swedish Isabel Edvardsson, currently on the German version of Strictly, and Peta Murgatroyd from America’s Dancing With The Stars.

The source added: “We want brilliant personalities on Strictly, but also brilliant dancers.
