    Michelle Heaton looked sensational as she sang with her band Liberty X at the 90s Baby concert at the BEC Arena in Manchester on Saturday. 

    The singer, 42, looked every inch the popstar as she donned a sequin shawl paired with a skimpy black leotard and fishnet tights. 

    After sparking widespread concern last week with a shocking picture taken in the depths of her alcohol addiction – the singer looked happy and healthy as she took to the stage.

    Her raven tresses were kept loose and tousled and flowed around her while she belted out songs and danced on stage.  

    She performed alongside her other band members, Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young, who looked equally as sexy in raunchy all black ensembles – with the male members Kevin Simm and Tony Lundon absent. 

    The band rose to fame in the early 2000s after the group failed to make it into the winning band Hear’Say on Popstars.  

    Michelle, who has recently become sober following a battle with alcoholism, took to Instagram to share some snaps from the night with her fellow performers. The trio looked ultra glam in the photos, which Michelle captioned: ‘Here we go!’   

    In a later post, Michelle shared the reality of her pop star life with a picture of herself lying in bed with snacks while writing alongside it:  Now the mum vs the Popstar 2hrs ago. In bed with a tv date of #21jumpstreet a packet of pickled onion #spaceraiders.. a packet of @mmsuk and a @grenadeofficial bar .. Stuff that dreams are made of!’

    Also performing at the event were Atomic Kitten, who looked effortlessly glamorous as they performed on stage. 

    The band, which was originally a trio, has been trimmed down to just two – comprising of Liz McClarnon and Natasha Hamilton. 

    The pair looked amazing on stage wearing blue jeans and cream vest tops, while singing and dancing. 

    Noughties icon Peter Andre headlined the the concert wearing an edgy graphic tight white T-shirt. 

    The mysterious girl singer, 48, completed the look with grey acid wash jeans and a black leather biker jacket and boots, all while standing on a speaker for the performance.

    The concert comes after Michelle took to Instagram last week – this time to celebrate 20 weeks of sobriety and posted a snap from before she went into rehab in which she had puffy and bloodshot eyes.   

    Michelle previously revealed she did not go for a day without alcohol for three years before she checked into rehab in April.

    Confessing that getting herself to rehab was the hardest part of her journey during an appearance on Loose Women, Michelle said: ‘It’s the first step and its the hardest to admit you have a problem and that you’re powerless to drugs and alcohol.

    She explained it wasn’t a ‘specific event’ that caused her admission into rehab, but she ended up ‘locked away by herself, lying and manipulating situations’.

    Michelle revealed: ‘I became very very ill, it was a five year process. About three years it got a bit of a hold on me, I was happy in my addiction.’

    ‘Sometimes it’s difficult to say you have an addiction cos at times it feels fun, that’s the reality of it, it [alcohol] was my friend in need.’

    ‘Any feeling, sad, happy, the sun’s shining, a party – any excuse. It got a hold of me really badly about a year and a half ago.’

    ‘My husband and friends tried an intervention to get me to rehab.’

    ‘Three months ago I was on deaths door, I was given a couple of days [to live]. I was so ill I had lost so much weight, my skin was translucent, my belly was swollen and hard. I was sick so I could drink more. I’d feel happy so I could drink more. It controlled everything I did.’  

    Michelle went on to reveal that she is currently on the 12-step programme and is working on finding a way to move on with her life.

    She is also back performing with the band and admitted it is the first time she has ever performed sober.

    Michelle said: ‘The Liberty X girls are back on the road – that gave me such a high – I’ve never done a show sober. I thought it was alcohol that gave me that gusto, but it wasn’t it was the girls around me and the crowd singing our songs back.’
