Stars gather for Comic Opera event during Red Nose Day

Scarlett Moffatt and Rosie Jones are among the women taking part in this year’s Comic Opera for Red Nose Day. Comic Opera is returning for its second year and will once again see celebrities transformed into opera singers in 24 hours.

This year’s challenge features an all-female line-up, with TV presenter Moffatt, 31, and comedian Jones, 31, joined by actors Helen George, Tamzin Outhwaite and Nina Wadia. Jones said: “It’s a tremendous honour to take part in the Comic Opera for Comic Relief.

“I am terrified, I find it hard enough to talk, never mind sing opera. I love singing though, and I always belt out 80s bangers in the shower, so surely it’s just like that… with a few more clothes on. Hopefully we can have a lot of fun, and raise a lot of money for Comic Relief at the same time.”
