HELLO! Online blogger Michelle Keegan has been voted the female celebrity with the best beach body by both UK men and women in a recent poll. The Coronation Street star fought off tough competition from other celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Kelly Brook and Lucy Mecklenburgh, in the survey hosted by fitness brand Fit Britches.

The only category that the 27-year-old actress didn't take home was 'Best Bum', with Rihanna coming first, closely followed by Kim Kardashian in second place.
It's been a busy few weeks for Michelle, who recently exited Coronation Street after six years, when character Tina was killed off. The soap actress admitted that she was initially surprised when she found out Tina would be written out of the soap for good. "I was shocked," said Michelle Keegan. "Initially we thought that the door would be left open for her, which I think is every actor's ideal scenario. A few months later, the producers came up with this amazing exit storyline for Tina — that she was going to be killed. My heart stopped when I first found out." "I do completely understand why she's being killed though," she added. "It's an amazing storyline and it will affect so many characters on the Street for the next year." The gorgeous brunette paid tribute to her alter ego on Twitter, with a photo montage of Tina, including her trademark large hoop earrings.
"R.I.P Tina McIntyre," reads the message across the montage, along with the dates that Michelle was on screen as Tina: "7th January 2008 to 2nd June 2014".
