SAMANTHA MUMBA, the queen of Ireland’s hearts, was on the Late Late Show last night.

But as well as performing her new single Only Just Begun, we caught a glimpse of Samantha’s past. Yes, as a 12-year-old in 1995, she was a Billie Barry kid on the Toy Show.

She wore a pretty stellar outfit. (Props also to the guy on the right’s incredible curtains.)

And there was also this weird shot of Gay Byrne watching with a clipboard.

Oh, and we were reminded of the time she called Twink “Barbie’s granny”. We <3 you Samantha!
