Ashley avoids Dancing On Ice drama

Dancing on Ice judge Ashley Roberts stays out of "silly" arguments with her fellow judges. The former Pussycat Dolls singer joined the panel of the ITV1 celebrity ice skating show this year, but admits she tries to avoid getting involved in drama between judges Robin Cousins, Jason Gardiner and Karen Barber.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the UK premiere of 'Django Unchained' in London's Leicester Square on January 10, she said: "It's silly. I try to stay out of it. We're just there to judge and do our jobs."

The blonde beauty enjoyed her first night on the panel last Sunday (January 6), adding: "It was so much fun. It's so exciting. I'm excited to be part of the team. It's a cool gig."

The 31-year-old star also revealed she didn't need to seek advice from former bandmate Kimberly Wyatt - who is a judge on Sky1's 'Got to Dance' - as she's confident in her abilities. She said: "I haven't asked her for tips, no. I saw her the other night, though. We're close girlfriends. We both feel confident in our education and background in what we do, so I didn't ask her for tips."
