It seems as though combining the much-anticipated Girls Aloud comeback with Strictly Come Dancing has left Kimberly Walsh with a lot to do. She's been talking to The Sun about her packed schedule. 

"When I signed up, I probably wouldn't have expected to get so far in Strictly!" she said, "But I knew about the Girls Aloud work when I started, so although it's been tricky and very busy, I wouldn't change it for anything. I must admit, I've had a few moments where I've thought I'm losing my mind. But I'm not the only one -- Dani (Harmer) is rehearsing for panto and everyone has careers besides Strictly. It's just a final push to go now. We can do it!" All this work seems to have taken its toll on the singer's body, and she's feeling it now! "It's been tricky to rehearse because it hurts when Pasha tries to lift me," she explained. "I went to a doctor and I've been given painkillers and anti-inflammatory tablets -- I feel like my body isn't coping very well at all!"

Still, despite dancing through the pain, Kimberly is determined to make the most of her opportunity on the show. "Despite the injuries, I'm feeling quite confident because they're great routines," she said. "The Charleston is really fun and it's a great song and the American smooth is obviously completely different, very dramatic, so I'm looking forward to them both. Last week's scores definitely gave me a boost. No matter what happens now, I was really pleased to make those improvements that got us a perfect score. That was a brilliant moment."
