Biggest sign yet La Voix will host Strictly as she joins BBC family as presenter on Morning Live
After weeks of hinting that she wanted the hosting job…
La Voix has announced that she’s joined Morning Live, in what fans reckon is a clear sign she’s now a shoo-in for the presenting role on Strictly Come Dancing.
Earlier today (December 8), the drag icon announced the news on social media. Sharing a picture of the BBC daytime show’s logo, she announced that she was joining the Morning Live family as one of its presenters. She’ll host a show alongside long-running host Helen Skelton next week.

La Voix said: “Guess who @bbcmorninglive are letting look after Morning Live next week! Me & @helenskelton for a morning packed with seasonal features, surprises and plenty of festive cheer, as Morning Live embraces a new kind of Christmas magic.
“Make sure you Tune in to @bbcone on 16 December 9:30am for a festive edition of Morning Live you won’t want to miss with Me & Helen!!!!”
The BBC also shared: “Setting the stage for a show where anything can happen, viewers can expect sparkle, festive mischief, and the kind of joyful chaos only La Voix can deliver. Fresh from the glittering ballroom of Strictly Come Dancing, La Voix will bring her signature wit, warmth, and unstoppable energy to the Morning Live studio.”
Helen’s also excited. She said: “I can’t wait to welcome La Voix to Morning Live. She’s full of energy, full of heart, and just the right amount of chaos for the festive season. It’s going to be huge fun, and I know our audience are in for a treat.”
Viewers think it means she’s a shoo-in for Strictly host
After her early exit from Strictly due to injury, and her constant jokes about taking host Tess Daly’s jobs, La Voix fans now think she’ll definitely be handed the Strictly hosting job next year.
“This is basically a job interview for something bigger next year, I can feel it in me waters!” said one.
“Looks like putting your CV in for Strictly might pay off after all,” said another. “Practice for the Strictly job! We love to see it, Queen,” a third added. “Getting closer to Tess and Claude’s job each day,” another added.
Over the weekend, La Voix was at the Strictly studios. She teased fans with a series of pictures with Tess and co-host Claudia Winkleman and asked: “What was I up to tonight with my favourite girls?” “Work experience with your mentor?” came one reply.

Tess and Claudia’s Strictly exit
Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman announced they would be leaving the series at the end of the year midway through the 2025 run.
Now, with just two live shows and the Strictly Christmas special to go, it surely won’t be too long before bosses announce who will replace them. And, as she joins the BBC family, it seems like the job could be as good as La Voix’s.
