Dressed in casual clothes, a far cry from the candy-coloured costumes of her youth, she still looked exactly the same.
After stepping back from music, Lolly went on to work in TV presenting and musical theatre, but it's clear her love for pop hasn't fizzled.
While she hasn't announced a comeback (yet), fans are already speculating about whether this could be the start of something more.
One user replied: "LOLLY FOR MIGHTY HOOPLA 2026!" To which the singer replied: "I would love that!!"
