Singer Sophie comes back on model couch

As comebacks go, it is one likely to get her noticed. At least that's what Sophie Ellis-Bextor will be hoping with this shot for a high street fashion chain.

The singer, 27, has been out of the spotlight for two years after giving birth to son Sonny and marrying The Feeling's bass player Richard Jones.

She plans to return in the autumn with a new single and album and a lead role in an advertising campaign for Monsoon.

The star who sang Murder On The Dancefloor follows in the footsteps of Jodie Kidd, who wore just a strip of lace to pose on a horse for the label.
