Singer David Van Day has been elected as a local councillor in a by-election.
The former pop star, who rose to fame in the late-1970s as one half of Dollar, stood for the Conservatives in the Aveley and Upland ward on Thurrock Council in Essex.
He won the seat, previously held by independent Tim Aker, by 222 votes.
Mr Van Day said he was "very happy" to have won after a "hard fought campaign".
The singer also performed in a version of Bucks Fizz in the 1990s and was a competitor in ITV's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2008.
