A former Celebrity Big Brother babe looks barely recognisable after swapping reality TV for the gym - to become a super-ripped body builder.

Model Danica Thrall, 26, made temperatures soar when she was locked in the CBB house with fellow stunners Rhian Sugden and Jasmine Lennard in 2012.

But since then the former beauty pageant winner has reinvented herself as a top fitness model with a toned six pack and beefed-up biceps.

Derby-born Danica picked up the Ms Bikini Tall title at the Miami Pro World Championships in St Albans, where the crowds barely recognised her from her Big Brother days.

Danica was the fifth housemate given the boot after clashing with fellow beauty Lennard, who called her a 'prostitute' because she worked as a presenter on raunchy TV sex line channels.

She went on to star in a controversial documentary called Sex, Lies & Rinsing Guys about internet models who chat to lonely guys in exchange for presents.

Danica also appears in the new video for DJ Cassidy’s latest single Calling All Hearts, alongside Blurred Lines singer Robin Thicke and Jessie J.

Fitness photographer Matt Marsh said: 'Compared with her lingerie days, Danica has clearly got into serious training and dieting.

'She’s still graceful and feminine but now she’s got a killer physique.

'You can see her deltoids, her shoulders are really popping and her abdominals are showing through. A little more work on her quads and she could be a serious competitor.

'I see physiques day in day out - and she really stands out. Forget Big Brother, she’s got the X-Factor.'

In January, Danica attended a Pure Rally event in London's Mayfair, where she covered up for the night in a T-shirt emblazoned with the event logo on and a pair of leather leggings.

I used to date a body builder.  He had a bigger supply of fake tan than I did!  And his calf muscles looked like they had been glued to his leg.....they didn't look natural at all.  Can't complain about his upper body or face though

 

Anyway, Danica doesn't look too ripped so could easily go back to her 'normal' body or lay off the weights and let her arms look a little more natural and she'd be fine.

 

The dark tan is to make them look more ripped and highlight their muscles.
