Strictly Come Dancing bosses are hoping to recruit Victoria Beckham and a number of other big-name stars for the next series, a report has claimed.

Show producers are keen to unveil an impressive lineup of celebrities this year and have been granted a bigger budget to do so, according to The Sun.

It is thought that Amy Winehouse, Girls Aloud singer Kimberley Walsh and actress Patsy Kensit are among other famous faces who will be invited to become contestants.

Bill Clinton's daughter Chelsea and his ex-lover Monica Lewinsky are also expected to be approached to compete on the programme.

A Strictly insider said: "It's no secret last year's lineup was pretty rubbish and viewers weren't happy. This year we're going for much bigger names. We've got more money to spend as things like Jonathan Ross's expensive contract have come to an end."

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reports that Gary Lineker and wife Danielle Bux are already in talks with producers over the possibility of signing up as contestants.
