Michelle Keegan — Soap fox
"I was an ugly duckling. I knew it, and my family and friends told me too."
Why we love Michelle Keegan
Michelle Keegan’s the sort of girl that makes ‘TV on demand’ a very redundant phrase. Instead, with her debut acting role as Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street, she’s had many a grown man busting an arse and an elbow to be there, complete with cuppa and Chocolate HobNob, on the sofa, on time, without fail, every single episode.
Having nabbed ‘Best Newcomer’ at the 2008 British Soap Awards, the Manchester lass was officially hot property. She's gone on to win 'Sexiest Female' at the British Soap Awards in both 2009 and 2010, along with the same award at the Inside Soap Awards. But (apparently) it's not all about the fact that she's extremely hot; she was also nominated for 'Best Actress' at this years BSA's. So where next? And do they sell HobNobs there?
Hollyoaks was the first show that Keegan auditioned for, but she was turned down for a role – personally we think she would have fitted right in. Her second audition was for Coronation Street, where the producers obviously new talent when they saw it. Somewhere else you may have spotted Michelle Keegan pop up is in Red Dwarf: Back to Earth when she had a small cameo appearance. Before moving in to television Michelle used to work for an airline at Manchester Airport – you’d never tire of having her tell you your flight is delayed. She has also previously dated a model, actor and semi-pro footballer (yeah, all the same bloke) so you better work on your CV if you want a shot with Michelle.
