Denise Van Outen puts on a racy display in black fishnets and corset

She was forced to put her Cabaret All Stars show on hold during the coronavirus pandemic.

But Denise Van Outen looked ready to get back to her starring role in the West End extravaganza as she posed for promotional shots on Saturday, ahead of the show’s reopening next weekend.

The blonde beauty, 46, put on a glamorous display in black fishnets and a shimmering corset for the snaps taken at the Proud Embankment venue in London.

The star flaunted her ample assets and toned legs in the eye-catching costume featuring black tassel details, a sparkly red waist coat and sky-high black heels.

Denise wore her blonde tresses in loose waves around her shoulders and upped the glamour with a pop of red lipstick as she worked her best angles with her co-stars.

The Masked Singer star completed the racy look with silky black gloves.

Back in June, Denise said she ‘couldn’t wait’ to perform again and had been rehearsing for the show by wearing her fishnets and heels in the kitchen.

In an interview with MailOnline, she said: ‘I’ve got to get back into my fishnets, so as soon as I had the nod I started training every day.

‘Opening my wardrobe doors and looking at all my high heels I have been thinking, when am I ever going to wear you again?

‘But now I’ve got a reason to put heels and fishnets back on.

‘I have lived in trainers in lockdown so I’m going to have a practice for the show in my heels around my kitchen.’ 

Cabaret All Stars reopens at Proud Embankment in London from August 22 and showcases a variety of performers including burlesque dancers, fire breathers, aerial acts, sword swallowers and magicians.

The show will be one of the first to get back to business in the city after the theatre industry has suffered a tremendous amount as a result of closures and postponement of live performances. 

But Denise feels confident that the venue, which doubles up as a restaurant, has put in place enough safety measures to give spectators a night to remember.

She said: ‘I’ve been part of the Andrew Lloyd Webber shows and Cameron Mackintosh, a lot of my friends are actors and a lot of shows have been postponed or cancelled.  

‘But London theatre is really suffering. Being a performer myself all you want to do is entertain.

‘I honestly thought I wouldn’t get back on stage any time soon and then I got the call to say they’ve got the setup there that we can follow all the government guidelines and do the show safely.

‘I feel safe enough to perform there so I hope people feel reassured.

‘It won’t feel too different but there will be tweaks to the night that will hopefully go unnoticed to the audience but we’re adapted to make the show work.

‘It is such a great show, I host it and I’m in it but the acts that come on because it’s a Cabaret All Stars, they are all phenomenal.’
