“What makes this moment even more special? Doing it in the year of the 25th anniversary of Body Groove, a track that changed everything for me.

“To come full circle, sharing my music knowledge and mentoring these candidates as they navigate the competition, is an absolute privilege. But this isn’t just about music, it’s about resilience, creativity, and stepping outside your comfort zone.

“Whether it’s crafting a song or building a business, success comes down to vision, execution, and belief. Can’t wait to watch this on Thursday at 9PM on One.”
