Banjo: I even swim with my hat on!

Ashley Banjo has admitted he loves his baseball cap so much he even wears it when he's swimming.

The Diversity star and Got To Dance judge is known for sporting an array of different hats and confessed he can't bear to be without one on his head.

"I've lost count of the number of hats I have," he said. "It's just my thing. I've always worn a cap. I do take it off occasionally but not even for swimming. I once had this horrific tan line for a few months!

"I do take it off before I sleep though."

The hats are sure to feature on the new series of Ashley's Secret Street Crew show and in November, when he and his Diversity buddies start their arena tour.

It's a mark of pride for the star that the dancers have sold out all of their dates.

He said: "I think Diversity has made dancing much more mainstream. I mean, we were the first dance crew to sell out the 02 Arena and we're the first dance crew to sell out an arena tour.

"We don't use microphones or words and yet people come and sit in a big room and just watch us dance. I think it's definitely shown dance crews the way forward and what to do."

:: Ashley Banjo's Secret Street Crew returns to Sky1 on Sunday, March 17, and will be shown after the Got To Dance Live Final.
