Discomania 2 sees legendary disco diva GLORIA GAYNOR head a glittering cast as top pop and TV stars perform modern day versions of disco classics and get the dance floor moving in this disco extravaganza.
Gloria, the Queen of disco, along with BEN SHEPHARD, will introduce classic 70s and 80s disco floor fillers as ITV transforms into the hottest disco dance floor for one night only.
Discomania 2 sees Gloria sing her Grammy Award winning signature anthem, I Will Survive, and chart topper Never Can Say Goodbye.
Say’s Gloria: “I never tire of performing I Will Survive, as I know it encourages people to have hope and gives them empowerment.
“I think the song became so big because all people have problems. Whether they have broken up with someone or are overcoming an illness that they hope they’ll survive, so they can relate to the song.
“Discomania 2 is made up of wonderful performers singing great songs.”
Says Ben: “I’m really looking forward to sharing the stage with disco legend Gloria Gaynor. I Will Survive has always been a favourite of mine and just seeing Gloria sing live will be amazing and make a refreshing change from watching my mates sing it down the pub on a Saturday night!”
The cast of Saturday Night Fever perform an electric version of Night Fever and Emmerdale’s ADELE SILVA, CLEVELAND CAMPBELL, HAYLEY TAMMADDON and ROXANNE PALLETT recreate a spectacular version of Rose Royce’s Car Wash.
Boyband hearthrob ANTHONY COSTA will join the other stars under the Glitterball to give us a whole new version of the Billy Ocean hit Love Really Hurts Without You.
It’s the first time that Anthony and his girlfriend Adele Silva have appeared together on the same show. Says Anthony: “Adele is really nervous. She’s embarrassed and quite shy. I think she’s worried that I’ll show her up!”
Backed by a gospel choir PETER ANDRE sings You’re The First, My Last, My Everything, UK Eurovision diva JAVINE belts out the Diana Ross disco classic I’m Coming Out and, former lead singer of S Club 7, JO O’MEARA sings Candi Staton’s Young Hearts Run Free.
Discomania 2 also includes stars sharing their own favourite moments from the heddy days of disco and provide unexpected surprises!
This one-hour special follows on the success of ITV’s Abbamania, Queenmania, Madonnamania, Greasemania, and, of course last year’s Discomania hosted by Donna Summer and Neil Fox.
