LAURA WRIGHT WAS named as England’s official anthem singer for rugby matches last November but her coming out, of sorts, stunned all in Twickenham yesterday.
The 22-year-old singer’s appearances in the pre-match festivities have coincided with home wins over New Zealand and Scotland so she could arguably claim to be a good luck charm.
She certainly got the home crowd riled up before England’s home clash with France yesterday as her billowy, white dress wafted in a breeze to reveal an awful lot of leg.
BBC, who was broadcasting the match, cut away from the soprano and rugby fans were forced to behold the spiky-haired passion of English captain Chris Robshaw.

As for the match itself, England beat France 23-13 to stay on track for the Six Nations and Grand Slam.
