Klass act: Myleene stuns Tube passengers at Hampstead with latex Pokemon outfit as she heads to work in London

Myleene Klass left commuters on the London Underground speechless as she got the Tube wearing a striking Pokemon outfit.

The former Hear’Say singer was among a slew of celebrities who went all out for Halloween on Friday, including Gemma Collins, Georgia Toffolo and Jade Thirlwall.

Klass dressed up as cartoon villain Rumi for the big day, donning a pair of white hotpants and a matching crop top.

The 47-year-old, who carried a sword and completed her look with white boots and a purple wig, caught the train to work at the Classic FM studios in Leicester Square in the morning.

In a video shared on Instagram, she was seen strutting through Hampstead station and waiting on the platform, before sitting in a busy carriage with bewildered passengers turning to stare at her.

She captioned the video: “Rumi’s getting to radio. Getting into work. Casual.”

Fans flooded the comments with their praise for the costume, with one writing: “Imagine passing you on this Friday morning….. brightening up London!”

“Traveling super hero,” another added, while a third posted: “You look so iconic we’re obsessed.”

Klass joined Classic FM as a weekend presenter in 2006 and has been with the station ever since. She presents Calm Classics on Saturdays and Sundays.

The musician hit the headlines over the summer when she said she caught her then-fiancé, Graham Quinn, undressing a famous woman during her own birthday party.

She refused to name the celebrity in question but said they have built up a successful “family brand” in the public eye.

“I walked in on [Quinn] with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony. I’m in my house. It’s my party. They weren’t having sex, but they were unzipping each other,” she said on Paul C Brunson’s podcast in July.

“They said, ‘It’s not what you think,’ but I was like, ‘It is what I think.’ I kicked everyone out - including his mum and dad. They went back to Ireland and his dad said, ‘He doesn’t get it from me.’ I remember thinking that was quite a weird thing to say.”

Despite the betrayal, Klass said she stayed in the relationship and went ahead with the wedding. “He said it was the drink,” she said, calling the incident a “pretty big red flag.”

Klass later declared that she doesn’t regret her honesty in the podcast interview.

She married Quinn in 2011, ten years after they met when he was working as a bodyguard for her former band Hear’Say.

But just six months after tying the knot, and with two young daughters, Ava and Hero, Quinn walked out on the family.

The singer is now engaged to PR executive Simon Motson, with whom she shares a five-year-old son, Apollo.
