STRICTLY host Claudia Winkleman reckons she looks like Dead Ringer For Love rocker Meat Loaf.

Claudia, 48, said she spotted the resemblance to the long-haired singer, 72, when she started video calls on Zoom during the lockdown.

The broadcaster, daughter of journalist Eve Pollard, added: “My mum believed that what you looked like is not interesting.

“So there are no mirrors in my house. In my head I think I look fine.

“The Zooms began and I was like, ‘How interesting, Meat Loaf is in my house’.

"I was like, ‘Meat Loaf is moving in the same way as I am. Interesting’. And then I realised it was me.”

She added on Radio 4: “My look, and I do not know if you want to call it a look, is I like to be bright orange, bright white mouth and lots of eye make up.

“That is because I have got very bad eyesight. I cannot really see.

“Basically if it looks anything like Alice Cooper, we are winning.”
