La Voix Forced to Leave Strictly Come Dancing Competition, But Confirms Live Tour Return

Drag artist La Voix recently faced a disappointing end to her run on the 2025 series of Strictly Come Dancing.

An injury tragically forced her to withdraw from the main competition, just before the highly anticipated Blackpool special.

However, in good news for fans, La Voix quickly announced that she will return to the dancefloor for the 2026 Strictly Come Dancing Live Arena Tour.

La Voix, whose real name is Christopher Dennis, had impressed judges and audiences with her partnership with professional dancer Aljaž Škorjanec.

The star was having a strong run, but she started to feel pain in her foot during their Foxtrot week. The injury, described as a bone bruise, grew worse over time.

Initially, show producers gave La Voix and Aljaž a "bye" through the Blackpool week, hoping she would recover quickly and return to the competition.

However, medical professionals advised her to step away completely.

Hosts Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman announced the sad news during the live show, confirming that La Voix was officially withdrawing from the series.
