Coronation Street fans couldn’t believe how different Michelle Keegan looked from Tina McIntyre today as she celebrated the show’s 60th anniversary.

From Maisie Smith to Katie McGlynn, Fabulous Digital takes a look back at the glamorous daily looks of our favorite soap stars versus their on-screen roles.

During her appearance on Corrie’s anniversary special, viewers were blown away by how glamorous Michelle looks now compared to when the show started.

The actress was only 20 years old when she was cast as barmaid Tina in 2007 and has been on the series regularly for five years.

One viewer wrote: « I too have to say Michelle Keegan looked so beautiful on # Corrie60 tonight.

« I was just as intrigued as when I saw her on my 11th birthday. Birthday saw #FirstCrush for the first time on my screen (or one of the first . . . but when i started to know the way of the world let us say lol) « 

Talking about her first Corrie memories, Michelle said, « I didn’t tell my parents I would choose the role.

« I didn’t tell them I was going to the final audition because I thought, ‘I don’t want to say I didn’t get the job. ‘ »

Prior to joining Strictly Come Dancing this year, Maisie Smith was best known for her role as Tiffany Butcher on Eastenders.

But while Tiffany is happiest in casual coats and trackie pants, Maisie’s off duty looks are far more glamorous.

The 19-year-old often shows her sense of killer fashion on Instagram – she opts for a wardrobe made of skinny jeans, mini skirts and trendy bandanas.

On the red carpet, Maisie is afraid of glamorous gowns and looked sensational in a silver sequin gown at the National Television Awards in January.

Katie McGlynn finally said goodbye to the cobblestones of Coronation Street in 2019 after her six-year-old character Sinead Tinker.

Katie was only 19 years old when she joined the cast in 2013, and her character Sinead had a relaxed, no-frills wardrobe – usually comprised of jeans and a pretty top.

Since leaving the show, the 27-year-old has given her hair a silver hue and opts for smart tailoring on the red carpet.

Commenting on her character’s death last year on Loose Women, Katie said: « I sound silly when I say it, but I think Sinead is real. I played it for six and a half years.

The actress played Michaela McQueen from 2006 to 2010 – and during that time she experimented with pink hair, neon tights, and oversized hair accessories.

The star regularly posts photos on her Instagram page of her updated looks and the adorable dogs Neil and Isaac.

Jasmine, who played Bex Fowler in the soap, left EastEnders in January after portraying Martin Fowler and Sonia Fowler’s daughter for five years.

On screen, Jasmine held back her hair and makeup so as not to distract from Bex’s explosive plot.

But while she often tied her hair back and kept her outfits simple on the show, Jasmine loves dressing up on her days off.

The 21-year-old, who just broke up with YouTuber boyfriend Romell Henry, even looked glamorous earlier this year painting the walls of her West Midlands mansion.

And for appearances on the red carpet, the star keeps things minimal in monochrome and styles her hair in loose waves.

Eastenders’ Clair Norris stunned fans when she posted a photo of herself on Instagram earlier this year.

Her strapless leopard print top was a far cry from Bernadette Taylor’s usual school uniform outfit.

The 22-year-old simply added a leopard emoji to her post that was more than 10. Has been liked a thousand times.

The actress joined the show in 2014 and is known for her edgy sense of dress and bold personality.

But the 33-year-old, who became a fixture on the series in 2016, prefers to knit in real life.

Dolly-Rose has a penchant for sharp suits and shirts, which she often rocks when she’s not in Weatherfield.
