Coleen Nolan is in the mood... for pole-dancing

Coleen Nolan is clearly in the mood for a different type of dancing, as the Loose Women presenter showed off her pole-dancing skills on the show.

In raunchy scenes shown on the daytime programme, Coleen cringed as she watched a film of herself during a pole-dancing lesson at lap-dancing club Stringfellows.

Dressed in a not very sexy pink top and black trousers Coleen is seen writhing around the pole during a private session with pole dancer Ali.

The gratuitous display was overseen by club owner Peter Stringfellow who was on hand to inspect Coleen's moves, as she was instructed by Ali.

But he didn't seem too impressed as he appeared to wander out of shot as Coleen strutted her stuff in a synchronised fashion alongside her professional tutor.

Coleen signed up to learn the saucy routine, after being given a pole as a wedding present by former Loose Women host Kaye Adams.

However, when the clip was played back to her during the programme she looked somewhat embarrassed as she held her head in her hands.

Colleen Nolan reveals her new figure in sexy photoshoot

Former popstar and Loose Women presenter Colleen Nolan has posed for a racy burlesque photoshoot after halving her dress size.

The daytime television favourite, who was once a size 20, was photographed in raunchy red satin basque and heels after getting down to a size 10.

Ditching her lifelong habit of yo-yo dieting, Colleen embarked on a healthy eating and exercise regime.

She now jogs two and a half miles every week.

She told Closer magazine: "I always said I'd like to do a sexy burlesque shoot - and losing the weight has given me the opportunity. Doing it at the age of 42 is just amazing.

"These pictures are for me and my husband Ray so when I'm 60 I can say to my grandchildren: 'Look that was me!' I now know I'll never get big again, because I'd feel like an idiot after all my hard work. I like my body better than when I was 20.

When I was out jogging the other day I got beeped at four times by van drivers. It sounds stupid, but little things like that can make your day."

Despite her recent triumph in battling the bulge, Colleen admitted Mother's Day was heartbreaking following the recent death of mum Maureen.

The 42-year-old said: "I got really nice cards from the kids this year, I think they made more of an effort because they realised it was the first year without my mum.

"On the one hand it was fabulous to be at home with all the kids, but on the other it would hit me that I don't have a mum.

"It's just things like when you go into a shop and see cards saying 'To my my mum' and I think I will never be able to buy those cards again. So it was really a bitter sweet day for me."
