GK Barry turns down BBC Strictly Come Dancing stint as ITV show would be ‘better for her career’ : “Ultimately Decided It Wasn’t the Best Fit”

YouTube sensation GK Barry, whose real name is Grace Keeling, has reportedly turned down an offer to star in Strictly Come Dancing, believing that another reality show would better serve her long-term career goals. The 24-year-old social media star is now said to be in talks to join ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.

Grace, who recently won over the Loose Women audience during a guest appearance, had reportedly engaged in ‘several meetings’ about participating in the popular BBC dance competition. However, a source told The Sun that it was “ultimately decided it wasn’t the best fit” for her.

Instead, GK Barry is now lined up for a stint in the Australian jungle, where her quick wit and sharp humor are expected to shine in I’m A Celebrity. “She did have several meetings with Strictly, but ultimately decided it wasn’t the best fit and is keen to pursue her telly career with ITV,” the source revealed. “GK is hugely popular with the younger generation and is sharp and quick-witted, which would translate well to chats around the campfire with other celebs.”

The source also noted that ITV producers are excited about Grace’s potential to entertain audiences in the jungle. “Producers think she has great energy and is highly entertaining. She has millions of social media followers, which is a top focus of ITV at the moment. Grace is savvy and knows this is a brilliant opportunity to become more of a household name.”

Grace’s decision to opt for I’m A Celebrity over Strictly reflects her strategic approach to building her television career. With millions of followers already engaged with her content, the move to a high-profile reality show could further elevate her status and bring her to a broader audience. As she prepares to potentially join the campfire chats in the jungle, fans will be eager to see how GK Barry adapts to the challenges of I’m A Celebrity and continues her rise in the entertainment world.
