Laura Whitmore has been in the public eye for over a decade, launching her presenting career way back in 2008.
But, speaking exclusively to Metro.co.uk, the 34-year-old revealed she has absolutely no plans to get up on stage herself.
When asked if she was keen on kicking off a music career, she told us: ‘I performed on stage at the Olympia in Dublin, for the first time ever. It was for a special cause, Rock Against Homelessness.
‘Everyone was getting up on stage and so I got up, my brother played guitar. That was the first time and I was petrified. Literally petrified.
‘I’m fine talking on stage but singing is a whole other ball game.’
However, the rare performance didn’t unleash an inner desire to release music.
‘My problem is I’m surrounded by too many talented people who are way better than me,’ the TV star – who is dating Love Island’s Iain Stirling – continued.
‘Even with my friends, a lot of them are musicians, after parties we all have a sing-song. I will never sing because there are people there who are so much better than me.
‘I’m the last person to sing!’
However, despite having no desire to get into the studio anytime soon, Laura has been named the co-host of music series Red Stripe Presents: This Feeling TV.
The YouTube show will showcase music from new acts and established bands, as well as taking viewers behind the scenes on the tour bus of their favourite singers, and guest appearances.
Holly Willoughby, Abbey Clancy and Line Of Duty stars Martin Compston and Stephen Graham are just some of the famous faces who have popped up on the show in the past.
Basically the dream.
And the Strictly Come Dancing star will be presenting alongside Gordon Smart.
Speaking about her new role, she previously said: ‘Music is a huge part of my life; from going to see live bands and heading to festivals, to watching unknown talents grow into household names – it’s the best thing about working in this industry.
‘The opportunity to work alongside Gordon, as well as helping to promote new, exciting bands on show was far too much of an exciting prospect to turn down.
’It’s going to be a blast!
