The event was in aid of the Irish Street League charity, an organisation which uses football as a way to engage those affected by homelessness.

Kelly (24) who rose to fame after appearing in TV3’s reality show ‘Tallafornia’ donned a red lycra costume complete with feathers and embellishment as she danced an energetic routine with actor Patrick Murray.

The fitness fanatic recently swapped partying for protein shakes as she entered the world of female bodybuilding.

In April 2014, the brunette competed in her first bodybuilding competition and won her division of the Miss Bikini Spring Classic competition when it came to Dublin.
