Gemma Collins has officially proved she is the ultimate diva.

The former TOWIE star couldn’t resist showcasing her sassy side while taking part in a diva battle with American singer Michelle Visage on Celebrity Juice.

In a clip aired ahead of Thursday night’s episode, Collins is quizzed on what she would do if she was given the wrong drink by a runner.

A young runner then appears with a cup in hand and politely tells the star: “Here’s your coffee Gemma.”

As he attempts to slowly back away Collins suddenly throws the contents of cup on him before announcing: “You’re meant to call me queen!”

The studio audience is then heard gasping in shock whilst Collins offers up a superhero pose for the cameras.

Appearing alongside her boyfriend James Argent, the reality star explained in an Instagram video last week: “So tonight me and Argy-baby are filming Celeb Juice. I've had to have a brandy. It's crazy here.”

Collins and Argent will sit alongside Good Morning Britain's Richard Arnold on Holly Willoughby’s team.

The star recently unveiled plans to make a move into the music industry after striking up a friendship with producer Naughty Boy.

Speaking on the Jonathan Ross show last month, Collins told the host: “Do you know Naughty Boy, who [has] done Running with Beyoncé? He wants to make a track with me. I met him at the BRITs, it’s all going ahead.”

She has since made her singing debut after she belted her lungs out on Wednesday night’s Jog-On To Cancer charity event.

She wowed the audience when she gave a powerhouse performance of Hey Big Spender by Shirley Bassey at the showcase.

Celebrity Juice airs on ITV2 at 10pm on Thursday
