Savage has just finished taking part in the ninth series of Strictly, where he sizzled onscreen with a natural flair and chemistry with partner Ola Jordan.

As the series progressed, both dancers seemed to turn a deeper shade of orange as they heaped on the fake tan along with their sequins and stage costumes

Robbie Savage has gone all haute couture on us; posing nude with a sultry expression against the backdrop of a stark room with shards of light filtering through the window to illuminate his locks. But before you guffaw at Goldilocks, the Strictly Come Dancing star has stripped off not solely for the ladies or an ego boost - but in honour of Everyman's testicular cancer campaign.

The football legend, who stripped to his birthday suit as the naked centrefold for Cosmopolitan, revealed he feels nude without his fake tan on now his time on the BBC show has come to an end.

However, despite their popularity, it was McFly drummer Harry Judd and professional dancer Aliona Vilani who were crowned champions. Robbie said: 'When I was playing football, I felt naked without my boots on. Now, doing Strictly Come Dancing, I feel naked without fake tan!'

Thankfully Robbie will get another chance to lather on a layer of crimson skin as she joins the Strictly tour from January 20 to February 26. The father-of-two also said the disease is close to his heart after friend and former Celtic footballer John Hartson was diagnosed.

He said: 'Everyman's testicular cancer campaign is close to my heart. My friend John Hartson found a lump, but put off seeing a doctor for three years - it nearly cost him his life.' In July 2009, Hartson, 36, received chemotherapy after being diagnosed with testicular cancer which had spread to his brain.

It was later reported the cancer had spread to his lungs and that he remained in a 'critical condition' following emergency surgery. However, the treatment was successful and by December of that year it was reported that Harston's cancer had been virtually eradicated.

Despite his affections for being Tango-ed, one show Robbie certainly isn't ready to take part in yet, is Dancing On Ice. During a Twitter debate with a fan, he wrote: 'No pal the next jamesbond !! 008 licence to thrust !!
