Strictly Come Dancing star Jerry Hall has complained it's unfair that she will be competing against professional athletes on the upcoming BBC dance show.

Texan model and actress Jerry admitted she resents the fact that she will do battle with trained athletes and Olympians like Victoria Pendleton and Louis Smith.

Speaking to Lorraine Kelly on ITV morning show Lorraine, Hall said: 'I love to do things that are scary, that scare me. I didn't know there were going to be all these Olympic athletes it's a bit unfair.

'I've always loved dancing, I've been to lots of events with Mick (Jagger) and he's a great dancer and we'd dance all night. We had a lot of fun dancing over the years. I don't know I always think I can do things.
 
'It does make me happy actually, I am enjoying the endorphins. I'm like that penguin on Happy Feet you know dancing for five hours and I wake up in the morning and I'm really happy.'

The blonde beauty also admitted that her daughters Lizzy and Georgia May Jagger were surprised at her involvement in Strictly.

'They were very surprised especially my daughters because they were like  "Mum aren't you kinda lazy?"

'I said well I do do the cooking and the garden but I do lie around reading a lot and writing poetry and things and I don't go to the gym. They were surprised and they were like, "Mum this is really, really hard work."'

Jerry will be appearing on the tenth series of Strictly Come Dancing when it launches in two weekends' time and faces competition from the likes of Pendleton, Smith and Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh.

The celebrities will be judged by Len Goodman, Craig Revel Horwood, Bruno Tonioli and newcomer Darcey Bussell when the show gets under way this autumn.
