It's no surprise that Kevn Clifton is absolutely smashing it in his new role on stage, but some fans might be surprised to hear that he's admitted to it being 'raunchy'. The Strictly star is currently portraying Stacee Jaxx in the hit musical, Rock of Ages, which sees him wearing a long, dark wig, 80s rock star clothing and plenty of kohl eyeliner. But fans have pointed out that it's not suitable for younger audiences. On Saturday, one fan tagged Kevin on Twitter after watching the performance, writing: "It's certainly raunchy and you'll see King Kev in a new light, there's moves you'll never see on Strictly. The tour recommends 14+ and I think that's about right. Get a babysitter and go and see it yourselves, then take them to see Burn the Floor." Confirming that he agrees that it comes with a PG rating, Kevin retweeted the message straight away!
