JADE Goody proved she’s a real battler when she took time out of her cancer treatment to rehearse her part in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

The former Big Brother contestant, who has been diagnosed with cervical cancer, practised playing the Wicked Queen in the panto production yesterday.

The mum-of-two, 27, threw herself into the role as she pulled nasty expressions as she went over her lines.

She is starring with ex-Corrie actor Kevin Kennedy (Curly Watts) and Any Dream Will Do contestant Rob McVeigh in the show, which opens next week in Lincoln.

Jade will have one last session of radiotherapy two days before the show opens, before having a three-week break from her gruelling treatment.
