Coleen Nolan, Brenda Edwards and their Loose Women co-stars celebrated a prom episode of their daytime show, prompting Katie Piper to reveal their dates to the rest of the studio
Two George Clooney and David Beckham lookalikes were invited to share the spotlight with Brenda Edwards and Coleen Nolan but viewers had nothing good to say about them.
Taking the helm of Loose Women, Coleen, 59, hosted a special “prom” instalment of the programme, showing up to the studio alongside co-stars Katie Piper, Brenda Edwards and Frankie Bridge dressed to the nines in a sequined navy blue dress and chic up-do this Wednesday.
But as the instalment drew to a close, paving the way for horse racing to take over ITV’s daytime schedule, Katie announced she had organised surprise dates for Brenda and Coleen.
Katie beamed in a red gown as she announced: “Please welcome Coleen your prom date, George Cloney. And Brenda, we didn’t you’d be able to resist his golden balls, it’s David Peckhim!”
Two men appeared in the studio, suited up and somewhat resembling the A-listers, but viewers at home took to X, otherwise known as Twitter, unimpressed.
“When you order George Clooney and David Beckam off Temu”, one of them quipped, while a second added: “Fella in a plastic Beckham mask.”
A third amused TV watcher chipped in: “David Beckham? More like David Peckham”, just as another slammed the “Worst lookalikes ever!” One final fan chimed in: “He looks sod all like George Clooney nor does the other one look like David Beckham.”
Minutes into the show, Coleen and Brenda reacted to suspicions they could be embroiled in a full-blown feud behind the Loose Women scenes. Coleen asked: “What is your most significant friendship?” to which the former X Factor star said: “Unlikely, with you”, leaving a surprised Coleen to retort: “Well, I don’t know where that’s coming from.”
Brenda went on to explain that the feud was only theorised by certain fans of their show. “A lot of people come to me and they keep saying ‘ so are you really friends with Coleen?’
“I think they think I’m so serious and you’re so funny so we can’t mix”, she added. “Are you serious? Well, that’s where they’re going wrong”, muttered Coleen, sipping from her mug.
The pair dismissed these suspicions with Brenda saying: “It surprises me when people say that because I think you’re lovely.” Coleen concluded: “We have got a really good friendship.”
