Former Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding has revealed that she did not have to audition for her part on "Coronation Street".
It was announced earlier this month that Harding, 33, would be joining the cast of the show for a guest stint over the summer.
While full details of Harding's storylines and character have yet to be revealed, she will be playing a "feisty troublemaker" who will make life difficult for Tracy Barlow, reported Digital Spy.
