Ashley Banjo melts hearts with sweet video of Perri Kiely’s rise to fame from schoolboy to Diversity star – The Sun

ASHLEY Banjo shared a sweet video of Perri Kiely as a schoolboy talking about Diversity and admitted "he’ll hate me for posting this."

Dancing On Ice judge Ashley said a fan had made the video and he couldn't resist posting it – before it racked up over 200 thousand views.

The Diversity founder melted fans' hearts with the clip of Perri in his school uniform talking about the first time he saw Diversity perform and wanting to join them, before they went on to win Britain's Got Talent.

The famous dancer gained nationwide fame when he won Britain's Got Talent.

This year he was thrust back into the spotlight when he gave Joe Swash a run for his money in the final of Dancing On Ice.

Street dancer Perri, 24, from Essex, joined dance troupe Diversity back in 2007.

After two years of training, the group appeared on Britain’s Got Talent – he was just 14-years-old and wowed the judges with his acrobatic moves.

Following a breathtaking performance in the final, the dancers famously beat Susan Boyle to take the crown in 2009.

The ITV talent show proved a popular platform for Perri, who performed with Diversity at a number of events and festivals across the globe and is now a well-known TV star, taking part in the likes of Splash! and Got to Dance.

Now Perri has also revealed his sophisticated taste, in photos of his very cool home.

The Diversity dancer lives in his own pad at just 24 years old thanks to his success on talent shows.

The backflipping star has given fans a glimpse off his home life in intimate photos on Instagram, showing his taste in decor and art.

He tells fans that he takes care of his three "kids" including two adorable cats and his cute dog Barry in the large pad in Essex.

The stylish abode has exposed brick walls painted all white, and a number features that stand out.

Snaps on his feed reveal a sheep fur rug, 1960s inspired furniture including a large sofa and armchair, and interesting pieces of arts adorning his walls.
