Mollie King and Gemma Atkinson step out ahead of Strictly

They are set to take to the glitter covered dancefloor in Strictly Come Dancing tonight.

And Mollie King and  Gemma Atkinson looked worlds away from their glittering ballroom looks as they left their hotel on Saturday, ahead of their debut on Strictly Come Dancing tonight.

Rocking casual cool looks, the singer, 30, and actress, 32, looked focused and slightly nervous as they headed to the studios before the first live show tonight.

Saturdays singer Mollie, looked chic in a cream t-shirt paired with high-waisted jeans, while toting a coffee.

Her blonde locks were styled sleek and straight and she sported a light dusting of make-up.

While Emmerdale star Gemma showed off her toned arms in a slate grey vest top and joggers with a checked shirt tied around the waist.

She slipped on aviators and left her ombre locks loose while carrying a healthy fruit smoothie.

Appearing to get caught during their steamy rendezvous, an underwear-free Gemma flashes her bare and pert derriere, clad in just a yellow shirt as she runs off with her half-naked co-star.

The actress is then seen pulling her underwear up in a hurry following the sexy encounter. 

The star is no stranger to getting hot and heavy for the camera, engaging in a saucy girl-on-girl scene with Jaime Winstone in her 2009 flick Boogie Woogie, clad only in a green thong.

After a string of acting projects since, including stints of highly successful soaps Hollyoaks and Emmerdale, Gemma is now preparing to appear on Strictly Come Dancing.

Dazzling in a red sequin number at the launch show last week, the actress was paired up with fan favourite Aljaz Skorjanec, who has previously won the show with model Abbey Clancy.

However, the erstwhile glamour model has already admitted that she finds it awkward getting up and close and personal with her partner, as they practice their sultry routines.

The Bury native explained: ‘Being forced to be face-to-face with someone you’ve just met is mortifying. It sounds all lovely. But it’s like doing a scene with one of your mates at Emmerdale.

‘On camera it looks good, but when you’re in it and doing it, it’s awkward!’

Gemma will be dancing the Cha Cha Cha to There’s Nothing Holding Me Back by Shawn Mendes.
