Nikki Sanderson biography (bio): Nikki Ann Sanderson is an English actress who is best known for playing Candice Stowe in the television soap opera Coronation Street. During her time at Coronation Street and since, she has also forged a career as a glamour model and television presenter on programmes such as, CD:UK, Junior Eurovision and Ministry of Mayhem. Career: Sanderson joined Coronation Street in 1999 and left in Autumn 2005.

Since leaving Coronation Street, Sanderson has appeared in episodes of the BBC television series' Holby City and New Street Law alongside fellow Coronation Street alumni Chris Gascoyne and Chris Bisson.

In 2006, Sanderson appeared in a touring production of The Vagina Monologues with Jerry Hall amongst others and an episode of Kay Mellor's Strictly Confidential. A naturally gifted vocalist, Sanderson loves to show this side of herself off; jumping up to sing at every opportunity, she is a self-confessed karaoke enthusiast. Recently she has made several television appearances singing, most notably on ITV's Madonna Mania, Discomania, Abba Mania 2 and Celebrity Stars in Their Eyes, where her impression of LeAnn Rimes, singing the smash hit theme from the film Coyote Ugly, 'Can't Fight The Moonlight' earned her the winner's spot. She recently appeared on The X Factor: Battle Of The Stars in the solo 16-24 category, mentored by Sharon Osbourne where she was eliminated 5th. (It must be said, however, that Sanderson was suffering from tonsillitis at the time and was straining her voice to sing.)

She will shortly be seen in the new independent film Clubbed and in episodes of Cold Blood for ITV1 and The Afternoon play for BBC1. In June 2007, it was reported that Sanderson would make a brief return to Coronation Street in Autumn 2007, when her character, Candice Stowe, turns up during the build up to another characters wedding. However these reports were later dismissed by Sanderson during an appearance on ITV1's Loose Women due to "scheduling problems". She will appear in the "Tuareg Productions" play Living under one roof at the Theatre Royal, Nottingham from 26 - 30 June 2007. World Vision: In 2007, Sanderson was chosen as the annual 24 hour Famine Celebrity Ambassador, for World Vision UK, a Christian relief and development organization.
