Tina Malone showed off a totally new look in a rare TV appearance after losing an impressive 12 stone in weight.
The Shameless star, 60, is best-known for playing Mimi Maguire in the celebrated series about a dysfunctional (to say the least) family in Manchester.
Shameless came to an end a decade ago, with its last episode airing in 2013, and Tina shocked fans as she appeared for a TV interview looking worlds away from her character.
Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday, Tina looked incredible with her blonde hair in long, loose waves, red hoop earrings visible beneath, and wearing a spaghetti-straps dressed.
Tina matched her makeup to her look as she beamed with bright red lipstick, along with mascara and dark eyeliner.
The Big Brother star spoke to Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh on the early-morning news show, where she and Tom Skinner got into a friendly back-and-forth over whether people from the north or south of England were naturally funnier.

While Tom went for some groan-inducing puns, Tina declared she doesn’t tell jokes and is just naturally funny, grinning brilliantly throughout the segment.
Tina previously revealed that she had worked on her fitness, quit alcohol, and dropped a whopping 12 stone as she approached her 60th birthday – as well as opting to have a facelift.
She told Closer Magazine earlier this year that she felt ‘the sexiest I have in my life’ since undergoing her transformation.

‘It’s a ripe old age and I look 40,’ she said according to OK! Magazine, adding that people can’t believe she’s 60.
‘I love telling people. I feel the best I ever have, and I think I probably feel the sexiest I have in my life too.’
Last year the star underwent cosmetic surgery to get a facelift, saying she was ‘over the moon’ and felt ‘prettier than ever’ since getting it done.
Tina is mum to two daughters: Dannielle, 41, and 10-year-old Flame, who she welcomed at the age of 50
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV
