Yahoo News Linda Nolan got tattoo artist to give her Angela Rippon's eyebrows amid cancer battle
The singer said Rippon has the eyebrows of her dreams
Linda Nolan has revealed she got a tattoo artist to give her Strictly star Angela Rippon's eyebrows when she lost her hair amid her cancer battle.
The star was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer in 2017 after first having the disease in 2005, and earlier this year told fans that it had spread to her brain.
Opening up in the Mirror, she said that she copied Rippon's eyebrows back in 2014 after seeing her reading the news and being impressed by her look.

"I have Angela Rippon’s eyebrows," she wrote.
"Naturally I wish I had her legs, too, but that’s another matter."
Nolan said Rippon's were the "eyebrows of my dreams", explaining: "Eyebrows are a frontline defence in the fight against Mr Potato Head when you lose your hair, and so I got mine tattooed for the first time in 2014, and yes, asked for Angela’s."
The star - who rose to fame as part of the singing group The Nolan Sisters alongside her siblings Bernie, Anne, Denise, Maureen and Coleen - has been open with fans about her fight with cancer, which has struck her family several times.
Loose Women star Coleen shared this summer that she had been diagnosed with carcinoma on her shoulder and pre-melanoma on her face.
The stars also lost their 52-year-old sibling Bernie to cancer in 2013 and their sister Anne, 72, has fought the disease twice.
