BiographyJerry Reeve received no formal dance training. He taught himself to dance by watching Janet Jackson music videos. After dropping out of a degree course in communication studies at Middlesex University, he moved to London, signed with an agent 'and the rest is history'.

His first job was on Top of the Pops , dancing with Boyzone for their version of 'When the Going Gets Tough'. Luckily, it's been uphill from there, and gigs have included the 'Survivor' promo for Destiny's Child, MTV Awards with Kylie and Whitney Houston, and untold videos. 'I had to wear hot pants and dye my hair pink for Geri Halliwell's 'Bag it Up' video. That was ... interesting.' The 24-year-old's favourite job was dancing with Diana Ross on her world tour. 'Diana was brilliant. When the tour ended, she laid on a pool party as a thank you to all her dancers.'

In 2003, Reeve made it down to the final 20 in an audition to dance with his idol, Janet Jackson.

In 2013, he was the creative director for the TV series 'Stepping Out' and between 2016-2017, he was working as the creative consultant on 'Michael McIntyre's Big Show.'
