Cheryl Ferguson, 59, is best known for playing Heather Trott in EastEnders from 2007 until 2012.
The media personality also appeared on the tenth series of CBB on Channel 5 back in 2012.
However, Cheryl has struggled to find work and was forced to find employment in a Chinese restaurant to make ends meet.
She previously flogged tickets to fans to see her perform at the opening of a takeaway eatery back in February.
Posting on social media, the former soap actress said she'd sing for diners at the The Dragon Lounge in Blackpool.
Now she's back again at the restaurant for another try at entertaining customers.
Advertising the upcoming gig on her Instagram profile, she wrote: "BOOK YOUR TABLE NOW FOR FREE !
"Join us for a great night of entertainment and fantastic Chinese food.
"If you would like to enter for fun read how to be in with chance of becoming the winner of Cleveleys got talent!"
She added: "Only 10 places available and free to enter ( please read rules of entry ) come on you Fylde Coast let's see what you're made of!"
She briefly returned to the soap in 2016 for a voiceover cameo after bosses decided to kill off her character.
The fan-favourite was murdered by Ben Mitchell in a dramatic altercation in her flat when he hit her with a picture frame.
Since her soap departure, the actress has been open in her struggle to find work in the public eye.
She previously begged bosses to give her a role in another soap such as Coronation Street and Emmerdale.
The former star also begged fans to pile pressure onto execs to give her a part in their productions.
Cheryl has made it clear that she's not just open to soaps though, as she explained: "Is this fate telling me that somewhere, sometime soon... producers, casting directors, TV people of the biggest heights - is deciding to cast Cheryl Fergison in some wonderful new period drama?"
She captioned the update: "What say you all ? Can you see it ? Can the producers / casting people , TV channels and Film big bosses see it?
"Amber management are waiting on your email / call regarding this here client who's ready to partake in their next biggest venture."
