Matt, who is the frontman of band Bros, joins this year\u2019s line-up of Strictly Come Dancing contestants<\/a> including Coronation Street star Kym Marsh<\/a>, comedian Jayde Adams<\/a> and DJ Tyler West<\/a>.<\/p>\n We don\u2019t know which Strictly professional<\/a> Matt will take to the dance floor with just yet, but here\u2019s everything else we know about him in the meantime.<\/p>\n Age:<\/strong> 53<\/p>\n Job:<\/strong> Singer<\/p>\n Instagram: <\/strong>@mattgoss<\/a><\/p>\n Twitter:<\/strong> @mattgoss<\/a><\/p>\n Matt is a singer and songwriter best known for being frontman of the band Bros alongside his twin brother Luke. The pair\u2019s first album Push went platinum seven times, remaining on the UK top ten music charts for an impressive 54 weeks. The brothers were also the subjects of a BAFTA-winning documentary titled Bros: After the Screaming Stops.<\/p>\n Matt has also enjoyed a successful solo career, with an award-winning stint in Las Vegas and his solo album The Beautiful Unknown<\/a> released earlier this year.<\/p>\n Matt\u2019s announcement comes on \u2018Matt Goss Day\u2019 on 8th August, which falls on his late mother\u2019s birthday.<\/p> Speaking of joining the Strictly line-up, Matt said: \u201cI\u2019m extremely nervous and excited, but I\u2019m optimistic because I\u2019m very supple from the knees down.\u201d<\/p>\n He also said after being unveiled on This Morning: \u201cI\u2019m excited. I\u2019m nervous. You have the conversation and then you go about your day and you think, \u2018I\u2019ve got to dance.\u2019 I\u2019m eating everything that\u2019s favourable to Spandex. I\u2019ve got to make sure it\u2019s alright, I\u2019m excited.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been almost reclusive. I come in [to the country], I work and go back to America. I just thought, \u2018You know what, it\u2019s time for me to come home, just do something completely out of my comfort zone\u2019 \u2026 I\u2019m quite shy off-stage. I just have to face all those demons and just learn.\u201d<\/p>\n Strictly\u2019s 20th season will be back on our screens this autumn, though it\u2019s not clear at this stage when exactly it will return. Based on previous years, however, we can make an educated guess.<\/p>\n Last year, Strictly launched on 18th September, so it\u2019s possible we could see it make a comeback on Saturday 17th September.<\/p>\n Strictly Come Dancing 2022 will air on the BBC later this year.\u00a0<\/strong>Check out more of our\u00a0Entertainment<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
