Lulu to join Gary Barlow, Martin Kemp and Dannii Minogue in new BBC talent show Let It Shine
IT’S been revealed that Lulu is set to team up with Gary Barlow again – this time for new talent show Let It Shine.
The BBC show is searching for the cast of the new Take That musical, and also sees Martin Kemp and Dannii Minogue on the judging panel.
Lulu, who famously appeared in Take That’s Relight My Fire video, will be a guest judge for a later stage of the show.
She said: “I have always loved working and sharing in the success story that is Take That.
“So the chance to bring my experience and knowledge of West End musicals, to help cast for a new show, feels a privilege and I am thrilled to do it."
Lulu will join the three permanent judges for the second stage of the competition which will see the boys perform in groups for the very first time in an all-singing and all-dancing extravaganza.
