Dancing on Ice star Melody Thornton will become the first contestant of the current series to attempt the hazardous Headbanger move when the show returns on Sunday evening

The Pussycat Doll has received warm praise for her previous two performances on the ITV show, but will aim to raise the bar by several notches when she enters the rink with professional skate partner Alexander Demetriou

Earnest rehearsals show the pair choreographing their latest routine, which is expected to end with Alexander spinning Melody from her ankles in dizzying circles around the ice

  Speaking to Sun Online while rehearsing the move, which is banned by the International Skating Union (ISU), Melody admitted she could suffer a fatal injury if it goes wrong

'I'm just trying not to die. I could crack my head,' she said.  Share this article Share The Headbanger, also referred to as the Bounce Spin, was named as such because the body is propelled high in the air before dipping dangerously close to the ice, making it one of the more complex elements used on the show

Melody will become the 13th contestant to perform the move, 13-years after it was first attempted by actress Bonnie Langford and her professional skate partner Matt Evers

In 2007 former Arsenal and England goalkeeper David Seaman - frequently referred to as 'Safe Hands' during an illustrious footballing career -  famously dropped Pam O'Connor while rehearsing the dangerous move one hour before the live show

 The professional skater suffering bruises to her shoulders and a deep cut on her chin that required stitches, rendering them unable to take part in that week's show

 Other stars to attempt the Headbanger include Suzanne Shaw, Hayley Tammadon, Jorgie Porter and Samia Ghadie, who took to the ice with eventual husband Sylvain Longchambon

Divisive former Emmerdale actress Roxanne Pallet also successfully performed the move with skating partner Dan Whiston while featuring as a contestant on the show in 2010, eight years before her controversial appearance on Celebrity Big Brother

Melody's preparations come after the singer revealed she is putting her heart and soul into her rehearsals in a bid to maintain her high standards on the ice

 'Every single day I go out and I'm like '"Just do this." If I give it my all then hopefully the results are favourable,' she told MailOnline

 'It's just hit or miss, you have to keep your emotions in check and stay psychologically focused and not get carried away and say "Oh my God, so and so is in the crowd, they're going to see me fall on my butt

"'There's so many things going into it, but I've surprised myself. I guess I haven't taken my blinders off

But I'm like a race horse and I'm just doing it.
