EastEnders' Clair Norris is unrecognisable with transformation for Great Gatsby party

EastEnders star Clair Norris transformed her look from that of her on-screen character to attend a fabulous Gatsby-inspired bash.

The actress, 24, who is best known for her role on the BBC soap as Bernadette Taylor, posed with pals as she switched up her look for the glam night out.

Clair looked stunning as she wore an on-theme feather and gold headband and mesh sequin studded black dress teamed with a string of pearls.

Her make over was a far cry from her character who often wears dowdy sweat pants and casual clobber with her hair scrapped back in a top knot.

Many fans were quick to comment about how fabulous the actress looked.

One person said: "You all look fabulous."

A second wrote: "@Clair_norris you look gorgeous."

Using love heart emojis, a third said: "Beautiful."

And a fourth user commented: "Love these pics."

Fans of the Walford drama will recall Clair's character has been at the centre of some of EastEnders' most hard-hitting storylines in recent years including acting as a surrogate for Rainie Highway (Tanya Franks) and her husband Stuart.

The actress is now taking a break from the BBC soap, and exited in October 2019 under the guise she was going to live with her older brother.

But some viewers may have spotted her appearing on quiz show The Weakest Link over the festive period.

Competing during the Christmas period, the 24-year-old shared a snap of her time on the show.

Her caption reads: "What a birthday treat!! I’ll be on The Weakest Link TONIGHT AT 6:25 on @bbcone!!! Tune in to see how we got on.

"With host @romeshranga alongside @chrisgpackham2, @dickndomofficial, @gemagain, @michelledcollins, @bbcfoxnikkifox and @dev #theweakestlink #goodbye."

Taking to her comments section, one person said: "Bet it was fun to film but I bet it is harder when you're in the studio on the spot."

A second said: "Clair, well done on the weakest link. You were amazing."

Another wrote: "You were great, funny and gorgeous."
