He is a big fan of Michael Jackson and revealed on The Wright Stuff (2000) the day after his death that he credits the pop video and stadium rock to Jackson.

'My favourite dance is the Foxtrot. It's a proper dance with proper
music. It has class.'
Ballroom is two people dancing together to music, touching in perfect harmony.
I don't like the Samba, it's nonsense. With a lot of these Latin dances I can't really understand what they're all about. I like the Rumba and the Paso Doble but the others I could take or leave.
Since being involved in Strictly Come Dancing (2004) my life has changed completely. I can't walk down the street without women throwing themselves at me, I usually wouldn't mind but they are of a certain age. Hopefully after this series, they will bring their daughters!
