Strictly Come Dancing's professional dancers are transforming into Britney Spears for Icon's Week.

The pros - including Nadiya Bychkova, 36, Dianne Buswell, 36, and 35 year old Amy Dowden - become the legendary 43-year-old pop megastar in a group dance that will take viewers on a journey through Britney’s many iconic eras during Sunday (26.10.25) night's results show.

In a group publicity shot, Amy dons the schoolgirl outfit - a white shirt tied up to expose her stomach, a grey cardigan, a grey skirt, grey knee-length socks, and black flat shoes - which Britney wore in her ...Baby One More Time music video in 1998.

In the same photo, fellow professional dancer Katya Jones, 36, sports a sexy red latex suit, which the Princess of Pop wore in the Oops!… I Did It Again music video in 2000.

And in the same image, 34-year-old professional dancer Nancy Xu channelled Britney's Air Hostess look, which the Gimme More hitmaker paraded in the Toxic music video in 2004.

Elsewhere during the BBC's Latin and Ballroom dance show's results programme, actress-and-singer Rachel Zegler, 24, will perform Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, before viewers find out which 11 couples have made it through to Strictly Come Dancing's Halloween spectacular on November 1.

Saturday (25.10.25) night's live show will see the celebrities and their professional dance partners pay tribute to some of the greatest music legends of all time.
