Strictly Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli is a dead ringer for Die Hard hero John McClane in white vest
The Italian dancer could have passed for a weedy Bruce Willis as he headed to the gym
STRICTLY Come Dancing judge Bruno Tonioli left people wondering if Bruce Willis was in town when he headed to the gym in a tight white vest.
The 60-year-old showed off his muscly arms as he headed for a work out, stealing style tips from the balding action hero in classic movie series Die Hard.
But while Willis' John McClane usually has a gun in one hand, Bruno kept it real with a simple and sturdy man bag.
He also opted for shorts and socks, an outfit you'd never see in the Christmas-themed Die Hard movies.
Last night the Strictly judge took to the red carpet for the official launch of this year's show.
The 2016 line-up includes a whole host of celebrities, including politician Ed Balls, singer Will Young, actor Danny Mac and Olympian Greg Rutherford.

Bruno joins the usual judges Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell and Len Goodman. Veteran judge Len revealed earlier this summer that this would be his final year after 12 years as a judge on the show.
Last night's launch saw Laura Whitmore having a whale of a time in a sparkly cha cha-style dress, Daisy Lowe stunning in a racy red number and Ed Balls dancing the night away.
Meanwhile Strictly pro Giovanni Pernice appeared to put on a brave face at the glitzy bash following his split from Corrie's Georgia May Foote.
The professional dancer's split was confirmed over the weekend, almost a year after the pair met on the BBC dancing show.
Posing with co-stars Aljaz Skorjanec and Pasha Kovalev, Giovanni masked any heartbreak he may have been feeling about the end of his relationship with the 25-year-old.
