Holly Willoughby dons pink for Wicked style on Dancing On Ice

Holly Willoughby dons pink for Wicked style on Dancing On Ice

Holly Willoughby dressed as Glinda the good witch from the hit musical film Wicked for Dancing On Ice.

The TV presenter, 43, who co-hosts the ITV1 celebrity competition with Stephen Mulhern, put on the ballgown as the show entered movie week on Sunday.

Willoughby wore a tiara and a flowing pink sparkly dress, and held a wand, in tribute to the movie starring Oscar nominees Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, which was released last year.

She joked that “for one week only Elphaba and Glinda hosted the show”, with her and Mulhern getting a rest.

Willoughby added: “Huge shout out the hair and make-up and wardrobe on tonight’s show, the celebs and judges looked incredible.”

Mulhern dressed as Erivo’s character, the green witch Elphaba, in the Wizard Of Oz prequel, which sees her bullied at a school before finding her power.

He detailed the layers of green make-up it took to look like Elphaba in a time-lapse video on Instagram.

Mulhern wrote that he was a “bloke painted green and asking, ‘Will this come off before Christmas?’”

Wicked, which has a second part to be released later this year, is in contention to be one of the biggest movies of awards season, with 10 Academy Awards nods.

It is based on the West End and Broadway musical of the same name.

During Dancing On Ice, the professional skaters also did a routine to a number from the musical.
