KATIE Price has shared the first look at her in panto with pal Kerry Katona – after being branded a “disgrace” by fans for her previous role.
The 46-year-old and Kerry, 44, are set to play the wicked stepsisters in a production of Cinderella later this year.

In new snaps posted on social media the ladies – who met during I’m a Celebrity in 2004 – can be seen in character for the first time.
Katie told fans she’d bagged the role alongside Kerry earlier this year.
Revealing the news on her podcast, Katie said: “I’ve signed up to another panto! Cinderella!
“I’ve signed up for Cinderella and I’m one of the ugly sisters – and guess who is the ugly sister I’m doing it with – it’s Kerry Katona!”
Katie continued: “So Kerry got me the gig because she has been working with them for six years.
“And she was like ‘why don’t you come and do this panto’, and she said it was for the ugly sisters and I said ‘oh are we ugly then?’ and she said we can still be really pretty.”
Last year double bankrupt Katie landed a £60k payday for playing The Wicked Fairy Carabosse in Sleeping Beauty.
But some fans were less than impressed with her performance.
A video of her dancing out of time for the opening night, prompted critical comments from fans.
“Maybe, just maybe Katie Price could learn the routines. She was an absolute disgrace.
“Clear to see how hard the other cast members have worked .. very clear she thinks she can rock up making zero effort!!!” one wrote.
“lol you hardly had any words, did no rehearsing and bippo acted you off the stage. Good work you can’t sing or act – your family must be so embarrassed” another moaned.
