Let It Shine’s very own dream girl Amber Riley will be adding a touch of glee to the judging panel as she joins the fun for the first four shows of the series.

Amber’s set to bring to Let It Shine, her extensive experience of performing, having starred as Mercedes Jones in the hit American musical drama Glee.

She also won the American remake of Strictly Come Dancing, Dancing With The Stars, so she knows what it takes to be an all-rounder, and that’s exactly what she’s looking for on Let It Shine. “A big voice isn’t the only thing we’re after,” she tells us. “It’s about being able to move, it’s about personality, it’s about being able to get along with others.” It’s clear Amber means business when it comes to finding talent – so what will it take for her to give our hopefuls the green light?

Importantly Amber’s experience also extends to musical theatre, both onscreen and onstage. In 2015, she played the part of Addaperle, the Good Witch of the North, in NBC’s The Wiz Live! In 2016, Amber took to the stage once again for the first ever London production of Dreamgirls playing the lead role of Effie White in the Tony and Oscar winning musical.

When it comes to auditions, Amber has very fond memories of her audition for Glee. “I didn’t really know what I was auditioning for, and then it turned out to be one of the greatest experiences of my life, if not the greatest experience of my life.”

We hope that in years to come, our contestants say the same thing! Bring on the boys!
