P&O Cruises president Paul Ludlow said: "This is a real treat for our viewers at home. It's not often that you can be transported from the chilly UK to a spectacular beach in the Caribbean to watch live performances from two huge stars. It really will be a moment to remember."

During the show, you'll also find out how to enter a big prize draw for your chance to win one of five holidays on board Arvia.

Scherzinger has been named the godmother of the Arvia and has formed an exclusive entertainment partnership with P&O Cruises, meaning she will be creating spectacular music and dance extravaganzas for the SkyDome on its two newest ships, Iona and Arvia.
