THE Chase viewers were left doing a double take while watching Celebrity Lingo last night.

Jenny 'The Vixen' Ryan appeared - but with a very different look to the one we're used to.

The star is usually seen in black, sporting a pair of pointy-eyed specs and red hair for her stints on The Chase.

But Jenny, 40, binned all the stern stuff alongside Dr Ranj Singh on Lingo last night - having gone blonde.

She also sported a summery outfit and was seen throwing her head back and laughing at host RuPaul Charles' comments.

One fan tweeted: "Jenny looks good as a blonde."

RuPaul asked, referring to fellow player Vernon Kay: "Jenny, you grew up in Bolton. Did you know each other while you were there?"

She replied: "There's a lot of well known people from Bolton but seeing Vernon growing up was such an inspiration to me."

RuPaul laughed: "Oh are you throwing shade?" with Jenny admitting: "A little, just a little."

She wound up toppling Vernon and teammate Michelle Visage and made it all the way to the final, winning just shy of £20,000 for charity.
