Celeb Air - Johnny Shentall's baby regret

Wednesday, 3 September 2008

Leaving a newborn baby at home while you go to work is hard for any parent but CelebAir's Johnny Shentall is finding it even harder than most. He has decided to tell MyParkmag exactly how he is feeling...

Everything you need to know about Johnny Shentall

Ex-Hear-Say band member, Johnny trained at Performers College after which he then went straight into commercial dance.

A successful career followed, dancing with the likes of Diana Ross in the television programme An Audience with Diana Ross, Robbie Williams at The Brit Awards, Atomic Kitten, Five and with Steps on tour.

After this he signed his first record deal and had a hit with the band Boom. He then signed his second professional record deal with Hear'Say, where he had huge success including a number six single in the official UK charts.

Johnny made his musical theatre debut with the first UK tour of Starlight Express. Following this he starred in the MTV series Totally Scott-Lee. Johnny also starred as Chuck in the West End production of Footloose.

Johnny reveals all...

Am I excited or nervous about taking part in CelebAir?

"I'm looking forward to taking part, because I think that when people start watching the first show they will realise how much hard work and how much time we have actually spent training. We are all looking forward to getting up into the air and putting into practise what we have been taught in the classroom.

How am I finding the training?

"The trainers are throwing questions at us really fast, because when you're on a plane and someone asks a question you need to answer straight away. I've loved it and it has been a great challenge, good for my brain. It's great going home to a newborn baby as well, as it's been tough to leave him for such a long day, but it's good to do this and it is all for his future."

Is there going to be any rivalry between you and Lisa?

"There is always rivalry between us, because Lisa's very competitive, even when it comes down to playing snooker or pool and other fun things. I'd love Lisa to do better than me and she would love me to do better than her, but she'd never say that!

"There's a hidden rule where we both support each other 100% in all that we do, but if we do stuff together someone always wants to beat the other and I think it is healthy banter. Lisa said that she didn't realise how clever I was which is great for me and to be honest with you I felt the same.

"I was really nervous about the academic side of it, because I was never very good at school and I surprised myself. If I had applied myself like this at school, I probably could have done really well; you always learn when it is too late."
