Stacey Dooley branded a ‘massive diva’ by Strictly crew after backstage demands
STACEY Dooley has been branded a “massive diva” by Strictly crew after making demands backstage ahead of the final.
The BBC3 presenter, 31, ordered staff to go and buy her a new outfit on Thursday morning ahead of a radio and press conference appearance even though all the shops were closed — after she failed to follow the instructions given to her.

Fellow female contestants Ashley Roberts, 37, and Faye Tozer, 43, turned up to the 8am engagements in suitable clothes while Stacey arrived in a tracksuit.
A TV source said: “Stacey turned up for an appearance on Chris Evans’ Breakfast Show at eight in the morning but hadn’t brought anything glamorous to wear as asked by bosses.
“She ordered staff go out and buy her an outfit but nothing was open that early so she had to go on stage after the radio appearance in her tracksuit.”
Sources close to Strictly have also claimed that staff on the BBC1 series have “fallen out of love” with the telly star in recent weeks because of her behaviour backstage.

The source added: “Over the past few weeks Stacey has been quite difficult and it has resulted in crew being put off her.
“Some of them are quite glad that this weekend will be the last time they have to work with her.”
