Fans heaped praise on the reality TV and encouraged her to ignore harsh criticisms this week
GEMMA Collins has admitted to feeling "nervous" about her Dancing on Ice return and shared throwback footage of her teenage self in dance school.
The reality TV star is expecting another toxic showdown with judge Jason Gardiner as their feud continues.
In the throwback clip, Gemma could be seen performing an elaborate dance routine while belting out a showtune.
She captioned the footage: "Here's to tonight... I'm very nervous as it's so different my performance...
"I hope you all enjoy it. Your support is very much needed."
Fans rushed to reassure Gemma after she urged them to vote for her in tonight's live show.
One fan commented: "This woman is an incredible sport, go Gemma. Don't quit, you've got the whole country behind you."
Another put: "I think you're great! Show them how it's done."
Gemma's mother Joan commented: "The real Gemma will be fabulous darling. Mummy and Daddy will be glued to the telly. Good luck!"
The Sun Online earlier reported how Gemma has been experiencing nightmares and has been left feeling "hurt and upset" after last week's on-screen spat with Jason Gardiner.
Gemma's boyfriend James Argent explained: "She’s been waking up in the middle of the night having nightmares. I remember one particularly bad one when she woke up and was grabbing my arm, she was really panicking.
"But obviously I can’t control what she says or does and I accept her for who she is. Gemma isn’t going to change for anyone. She’s an absolute grafter, and always has been, so no, she’s not lazy, and she was hurt and upset because Jason hasn’t given her a fair chance.
"He’d heard things about her and jumped on the bandwagon after meeting her only once. He body-shamed her, made sly digs about her weight and compared her to a dead person. That’s not nice."
