HEARTS boss Vladimir Romanov will battle it out to become king of the dance floor tonight in Lithuania's version of Strictly Come Dancing.

Dancing with the Stars has been a huge success, attracting massive ratings, and viewers have seen Romanov and his partner Sandra Kniazeviciute make it through to the last show.

They will be competing against Leonardas Pobedonoscevas, a famous Lithuanian actor, and his partner for the title.

Tonight's dance-off will not be decided by a panel of judges, unlike past contests. It will be up to the viewers to vote for their favourite.

Romanov's dancing partner Sandra praised the Hearts supremo, reportedly saying: "I was surprised with Vladimir's eagerness and ability to dedicate so much time and physical effort so he could learn how to dance well.

"We try so hard to prepare as well as we can for each dance."

Ten couples started the competition 15 weeks ago, with two more joining in later weeks.
