Also confirmed: Tennis coach Judy Murray will also feature in the new series of the hit BBC show
The new series will be the first one without veteran host Sir Bruce Forsyth, with Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman sharing the presenting job.
Pixie's confirmation on the show comes shortly after the release of her third, self-titled album on August 1.
Speaking about her new material, she insisted fans could expect a more mature sound from her latest record.
She said: 'I think I've just matured. I think this album sounds more mature, I think I just learned more and obviously my first single came out when I was 18, so hopefully I've learned a few life lessons since then.
'I'd like to think I'm not as naive as maybe I was when I first started out, so just learning a few things along the way.'
