The Strictly star took to the red carpet at last night's Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women of The Year Awards 2012 with VO5 and used the opportunity to pour cold water over claims he has a crush on his co-star.

But he did admit he thinks she's stunning.

'I don't have a crush on Kimberley Walsh. I got asked if I think she is good looking and I said that she is beautiful. Then in the papers the next day, I had a crush on her,' Louis explained.

The Olympic champion set tongues wagging earlier this month when he revealed he had split with his girlfriend and is now 'single and free to talk to, text and meet other women - like Kimberley Walsh, who is beautiful.'

But denying he actually fancies her, Louis went on to explain he's been out drinking with the Girls Aloud star's boyfriend, Justin Scott, and get son well with him too.

'She's a lovely girl, I've met her boyfriend. He's a lovely chap as well. We went out for a few drinks - we get on really well,' he told Huffington Post.

Meanwhile, Louis, who is paired with Flavia Cacace on the show, is still feeling the heat after he let slip that Sid Owen was leaving the BBC dancing competition on his Twitter account on Saturday night.

The results show is filmed straight after the live show on Saturday but not shown to viewers until Sunday evening meaning the cat was let out of the bag.

Speaking to The Sun, he said: 'I couldn't believe I accidentally gave the game away about the result.

'The fans have been amazing to me and the last thing I'd want to do is ruin the surprise.'

Louis explained that he simply 'forgot' about the rules but vowed it will never happen again.

'I just completely forgot for a second when I was tweeting but realised straight away and deleted it.

'I'm so sorry if I spoilt it for anyone, I won't be doing it again, that's for sure.'

Louis is clearly a fan of spilling Strictly secrets as he also revealed he is set to dance the samba this weekend.

He said: 'Latin is very hard to get great scores for, so I'm really trying to work on the hip action.

'I'm dancing to a Ricky Martin song but I'd never really heard his music before. I thought he was like Simply Red! So it's going to be tough not knowing the music well. I've been to Sao Paulo and I love the vibe over there.

'Hopefully I'll be able to give viewers some of that Brazilian flavour on the dance floor.'
