A Blast from the Past
Strictly Come Dancing's Christmas Special has always been a beloved tradition, with numerous celebrities gracing the dance floor for the festive treat. However, one star who participated in the special 11 years ago now looks completely different.
The Transformation
Comedienne Katy Brand, who took part in the 2012 Strictly Christmas special, is now virtually unrecognisable. She has traded her brunette locks for a super-short, platinum blonde crop.
A New Look
Katy recently showcased her striking transformation on Instagram, where she belted out a show tune while clutching a duster. Her daring new style certainly caught the attention of her followers.
The Dance Floor Disappointment
Although Katy gave it her all on the dance floor, she and her partner Anton Du Beke didn't impress the judges. They finished second from the bottom, with a score of 33.
A Star-Studded Lineup
The 2012 Strictly Christmas Special featured a lineup of talented stars, including JLS star JB Gill, actress Sheila Hancock, footballer Fabrice Muamba, and TV star Helen Skelton.
Katy's Humble Beginnings
Katy admitted that she wasn't surprised by her low score, as she had limited dance experience. She humorously shared, "I've only been dancing for about three days. I don't really have the limbs for ballet either."
A Festive Spectacle
Tess Daly and the late Bruce Forsyth hosted the 2012 Strictly Christmas Special, while the judging panel consisted of Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell, the late Len Goodman, and Bruno Tonioli.
It's incredible how much can change in just over a decade. Katy Brand's transformation serves as a reminder of the ever-evolving nature of the entertainment industry. Who knows what surprises the next Strictly Christmas Special will bring?
