Dancing On Ice star Mollie Gallagher looks nothing like Corrie character as she reveals incredible hair transformation | The Sun
DANCING On Ice star Mollie Gallagher looked very different with a new hair transformation.
The actress – who plays the long-lost niece of Roy Cropper, Nina Lucas – is known for her dark tresses and iconic goth makeup.
Mollie, who has signed up for the new series of the ITV skating competition, showed off her bleached blonde stylish updo in a festive snap.
Looking worlds away from her on-screen character, Mollie, 25, wore a black crop corset top with pink ruffles and a matching pencil skirt.
She opted for red lipstick, silver eyeshadow and heavy eyeliner as she glammed up for the Christmas outing.
The soap star wore her hair in a tight bun on top of her head, with strands of hair hanging down.

Mollie, who lives in Manchester with boyfriend Dan Myers, recently opened up about struggling to concentrate when other people are speaking and also forgetting what she was saying half way through a sentence.
"I'm just going about my day and the next minute… I've literally just forgot what I was going to say," she started.
The actress then explained how she often plays down losing her train of thought.
"It mustn't have been anything important."
She then shared a video with her eyes darting around while Billie Eilish's Happier Than Ever song played underneath with the lyrics "I don't relate to you."
Mollie captioned it: "Me when ppl talk for ages forgetting what they're on about or getting their words mixed up."
Mollie revealed how Dan helped her switch off from her Corrie role during her dramatic storylines last year after she struggled to switch off from Nina’s emotional scenes.
Nina’s boyfriend Seb Franklin was kicked to death by Corey Brent and his gang of thugs in a harrowing hate crime attack reminiscent of the real world attack on Sophie Lancaster in 2007.
But speaking out about how her role has taken a huge emotional toll, and how she’s struggled to switch off from all of Nina’s trauma at the end of the day, the soap star revealed: "Obviously when the Nina and Seb storyline started we were all still in lockdown so nothing was open.
"You couldn’t go to the pub and see your friends. Luckily I live with my boyfriend so we would do little things together after work and at the weekend," she continued to The Sun's TV Mag.
"But because I wasn’t really doing anything apart from work I was literally being Nina more than I was being Mollie."
In October it was revealed that Mollie had joined the Dancing On Ice 2023 cast.
