Strictly's Shirley Ballas open to getting facelift after watching herself on TV

Strictly Come Dancing's Shirley Ballas has revealed she's considering getting a facelift.

The head judge on the BBC dance show, 61, looks incredible, but she's admitted the thought of a little nip and tuck has crossed her mind.

The professional dancer bagged the top spot on the Strictly judging panel after the departure of dance veteran Len Goodman in 2017.

Known as the Queen of Latin after winning several international championships, the star has wowed fans with her stylish wardrobe and effortlessly glam make-up.

Shirley has now opened up about the secrets behind her beauty routine, admitting she's no stranger to a few tweakments.

"When I look at myself on the telly, I don't like the way my chin's looking from the side profile so I'll go and see the guy who did my boobs and if I do it, I'll be transparent," reports Woman & Home magazine.

Shirley had her breast implants removed in 2019 and says to stay fit she still teaches dance.

Shirley immediately had it checked out and after a number of tests revealed that they had come back "absolutely fine".

Writing to her followers, she said: "I got two sets of results back today and the shadow on my kidney seems absolutely fine and some other polyps are absolutely fine.

"No cancer there so that’s good," she added, before admitting that she needs to have her breasts checked once more.

The ballroom champion had originally alarmed doctors with her high testosterone levels and "lack of oestrogen", which they wanted to investigate to check the cause was not cancer.

Shirley shared previously: "My hormones are still all over the place today so starting today with some oestrogen to see if we can balance the body better..."
