Wishing for a part? Jasmin Walia turns up to Aladdin panto press night dressed as Princess Jasmine

Her first name is Jasmin and even she probably wouldn't disagree she likes to be treated like a princess.

However, perhaps dressing like Princess Jasmine from Aladdin when she isn't even in the pantomime was a bit over-the-top for TOWIE star Jasmin Walia.

The reality TV star went in full costume to the press night of the new production of Aladdin at the New Wimbledon Theatre in London on Monday night.

Spot the difference: Jasmin went all out to ensure her outfit was as similar to Princess Jasmine's as possible Clearly thrilled with her toned figure, Jasmin showed off her flat tummy in a blue cropped top and loose trousers. Rather awkwardly, it appeared Jasmin was the only one who had gone in costume, with most of the celebrity guests leaving it up to the cast to do the dressing up. RELATED ARTICLES Previous

No doubt, Jasmin may have felt a bit disappointed to see her Princess doppelganger wasn't part of the stage production on Monday night.

Missing out on the evening was Jasmin's TOWIE love interest Dan Osborne, who she has been enjoying friendly 'dates' with in the most recent series of the ITV2 show.

However, she was in good company with another TOWIE co-star Frankie Essex who also attended.

Following the show, she tweeted: 'Had the best time with my friends and family tonight #Aladdin.'

The new production of the classic panto stars Jo Brand as The Genie and Matthew Kelly as Widow Twankey.

Speaking recently about playing the Genie, Jo told the Daily Telegraph: ' I’ll try anything once, within reason.

'And after doing stand-up for so long, which is a weird and solitary experience, I’m looking forward to being with a big group of people and having a laugh.'

The production also stars musical veteran Oliver Thornton, known perhaps most famously for his role in the stage show of Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert, in the lead role of Aladdin.

And the role marks something of a departure for Oliver, being his very first pantomime.
