Nervous Coleen Nolan admits she feels “really sick” with dread ahead of stripping naked in front of 2,000 people and millions of TV viewers tonight.
The Loose Woman is one of eight female celebs attempting to show the boys how to perform a sexy dance routine and bare all on ITV’s The Real Full Monty Ladies Night.
They follow last night’s all-male group of household names who recreated The Full Monty’s famous, fully nude, striptease dance scene to raise awareness of cancer.

The eight women taking to the stage tonight had front-row seats for yesterday’s performance in Sheffield, with a close-up view of what awaits them this evening.
Coleen, who revealed earlier this week that due to a calamitous misunderstanding she signed up believing she was merely presenting the show, not taking part or shedding any clothes, tried to put on a brave face.
But, asked by host Alexander Armstrong last night how she was feeling, she replied: “Really sick.”
The routine, choreographed by Diversity’s Ashley Banjo, will be particularly challenging for the self-conscious 53-year-old.
Coleen has admitted she’s “terrified” at the prospect. The ex-pop star doesn’t wear a bikini on holiday or walk around in underwear in the house, let alone naked.

At least she won’t be alone stripping down to her birthday suit.
She’s joined by Liberty X’s Michelle Heaton, TV legend Ruth Madoc, comedy actress Helen Lederer, Emmerdale’s Sally Dexter, reality star Megan McKenna, broadcaster Victoria Derbyshire and TV presenter Sarah-Jane Crawford.
* The Real Full Monty Ladies Night is on ITV at 9pm tonight.
