In a video posted on her Instagram page, Gemma can be seen standing on the stage with the female lead in the musical as they sang the Diana Ross song, Reach Out and Touch.

As Gemma belted out the lines, the audience cheered, and as the camera panned around, Gemma's on-off love interest James 'Arg' Argent could be seen clapping and whooping for her.

The pair had excellent seats for the evening, sitting in one of the first few rows, but Gemma, 36, went one better by getting up on stage.

The excited star captioned the video: "Tonight I felt like Diana Ross.
