But some Strictly Come Dancing stars are more than happy to show their saucy side away from the studio.
This week, former contestant Ben Cohen - who fell for dance partner Kristina Rihanoff on the show in 2013 - has been flogging his topless calendar as he fights to save the couple’s £1.75m home and relationship.
The former rugby hero showed off his muscular physique as he posed up a storm in the £32.95 calendar - after recently admitting his financial woes when Kristina was in court.
But the saucy pics are nothing compared to the X-rated confessions of some of Strictly’s biggest stars.
Ola and James Jordan
James and Ola Jordan joined Strictly as professional dancers in 2006, remaining on the show until 2013 and 2015, respectively.
And the married couple previously admitted that they had a very hot and steamy moment together backstage.
In 2016, when asked where the naughtiest place they had sex was, Ola told New! magazine: "Er... the Strictly dressing room! Did I just say that? Nooo! The BBC won't be happy but there you go."
If that wasn’t risky enough, James added the late Strictly host Sir Bruce Forsyth was actually “next door” at the time.
Alesha Dixon
There's also 2007 Strictly winner Alesha Dixon, who confessed she has had sex in various risque places.
Her cheeky antics emerged during a quiz on Alan Carr's New Year TV show, including Alesha, as well as Olly Murs and JLS star Oritse Williams. It followed Alan asking: “Which of these filthy dirtbags once said, 'I've had sex in a big car but then everyone has. I've also done it in the ladies' toilets in a really posh bar in London'?"
Former Strictly judge Alesha confirmed she was the cheeky culprit, adding: "It was quite a big car. I recommend a 4×4!”
Michelle Visage
I’ve been married for 25 years but we sleep with other people, it makes our relationship stronger, says Michelle Visage
Michelle Visage - who danced with Giovanni Pernice in 2019 - recently revealed she and her husband David Case are in an open relationship.
Speaking on the Origins With Cush Jumbo podcast, she said: "We live openly, so he would get off knowing that I was so happy and no matter what it is that I do, and I'm not just talking sexually.
“Whatever it is, I don't know if I have a compulsion in me to be really excited if he's doing something with another woman but I know that it exists and he is 100 per cent that.”
If the kids go to school and he hears me like, put the key in the door, I'm in and no one's in the house, I just get a beaver and an aubergine emoji text
Abbey Clancy
Michelle and David, who wed in 1997, currently live in California with their two children Lillie and Lola.
And the RuPaul’s Drag Race judge previously confessed she and her husband got very saucy after he first popped the question.
She told The Sun: “When my husband and I were first engaged we made a sex tape, which is something couples do sometimes.
"My husband decided to keep it, even though I asked him to burn it about 20 times, and it is buried. No one will find it."
Abbey Clancy
Model Abbey Clancy won Strictly all the way back in 2013, with Aljaž Škorjanec.
And ever since she launched her Therapy Crouch podcast with husband Peter Crouch, she and him have been very open about their bedroom antics.
The couple - who have four children together, two boys and two girls called Sophia, Liberty, Jack and Johnny - say they get frisky when the kids are at school.
But Abbey has claimed Peter often ruins the mood by texting her emojis.
She said: "I just don't know how long I can go on with these sexual emojis that you keep sending me.
“If the kids go to school and he hears me like, put the key in the door, I'm in and no one's in the house, I just get a beaver and an aubergine emoji text.
Strictly Curse - The Lowdown
STRICTLY Come Dancing's latest series has already been hit by rumours of a BBC show 'curse' - yet what is it?
A host of Strictly Come Dancing stars have been struck by the Strictly Curse during the past two decades.
This is where celebrities who may or may not be attached in the outside world become more than friends with their professional partners.
A total of 20 relationships are said to have been impacted so far over the show's 20 years.
It has seen relationships crumble with dance floor romances and punishing rehearsal schedules to blame.
This includes the partnerships of Louise and Jamie Redknapp as well as Kevin Clifton and Karen Hauer.
Controversially, Judge Craig Revel Horwood once said of the curse: “I think of it as a blessing, to be honest. One person is married, the other one had a girlfriend but my point in this entire thing is: if you come on Strictly, sometimes you are in a relationship that is not working anyway.
“There has to be something wrong in your relationship before it all goes awry.”
Series one winner Brendan Cole left his fiancé, fellow Strictly professional Camilla Dallerup, during filming for the very first series in spring 2004.
Brendan was said to have fallen for his celebrity partner and inaugural winner Natasha Kaplinsky, although the duo didn’t confirm they were romantically involved.
"I'm not even gonna say the last one but you can imagine what it is."
Abbey has also told how the only thing that can put her off sex with Pete is having their beloved pet cat in the room, doing her business in the litter tray.
She said: “I would never have sex in front of our cat. Let's just put that out there.”
Abbey has also confessed she’d love to dress Peter as a sexy Viking to spice things up after watching a show about the Nordic pillagers.
She said: “When I watched that show… they're just cool. Even the girls are as hard as nails. But hot as anything."
Pete Wicks
One of this year’s Strictly contestants has had a wild threesome - and is clearly very proud about it, having spoken about it publicly on more than one occasion.
In an episode of TOWIE in 2019, while playing the confessions-based drinking game Never Have I Ever with his co-stars, Pete Wicks took a sip after Olivia Attwood exclaimed: “Never have I ever had a threesome.”
By consuming some of his drink, Pete confirmed he had, indeed, had a threesome.
But he spoke about it again last year, as he and First Dates star Cici Coleman opened up about having sex “with an audience” on Fubar radio.
I used to start doing joined-up handwriting then I thought, ‘I can’t be bothered with that as it’s quicker for me to not do it joined up
Jaime Laing
Cici asked Pete: “Have you had an audience?” to which he admitted: “Yes... There were only three people.”
At first, the TV waitress looked confused but then added: “Oh you mean that kind of audience!
“I’m talking a bit more about like, you know, your neighbours are watching, that kind of vibe.”
A bashful Pete replied: “Oh… yeah that’s what I was on about too. That’s, yeah, I mean, anyway…"
Tasha Ghouri
Having taken part in Love Island, where she met her now-boyfriend Andrew Le Page, it’s no surprise that this year’s Strictly frontrunner Tasha Ghouri has spoken about her bedroom antics.
But in their series, while dishing the dirt with her female co-stars, viewers were shocked as Tasha revealed Andrew performed a sex act on her while they were all in the same room.
Using the Islanders' 'beauty salon' innuendos, she told Ekin-Su: "I had a manicure... with his mouth."
