Michelle Keegan from Coronation Street has said that Helen Flanagan is her friend, not her rival.

The actress, who plays Tina McIntyre in the ITV1 soap, revealed that she likes to go out on the town with Flanagan, who plays Rosie Webster.

However, she claimed that her clubbing buddy gets more male attention than her.

In an interview with the News of the World, Keegan said: "I think guys like her more. They think she will be more flirtatious and I will be more hard work. That's partly true."

She added: "People always think that we're rivals but we're friends. We like to gossip and I'm happy to let Helen take on the raunchier roles so that I can keep playing strong-but-sexy Tina."
