The Cosmopolitan Awards were in full swing last night at London’s Whitehall, where the creme de la creme of lovely lady celebrities sauntered onto the red carpet. Danni Minougue, Kimberley Walsh, Alesha Dixon, Sarah Brown, Denise Van Outen, Lacey Turner, and Pixie Lott (and breathe!) were only some of the stars that were honoured at the awards ceremony that was hosted by the always fashionable Fearne Cotton.
The fashion choices were pretty much a mixed bag, but Sarah Brown, the wife of Prime Minister Gordon Brown, took our breath away. Hardly recognisable, the first lady wore a shimmery grey floor length dress with a neckline cut down to there (yes, down to there!). She topped it off with a sea-green wrap and a gold bracelet…we love!
X-factor judge, Danni Minogue, was named ‘Ultimate TV Personality of the Year 2009′, and we gave her a thumbs-up for her black assymetrical mini dress and her fingerless glove, which gave her outfit that extra oomff. Girls Aloud singer, Kimberley Walsh, was elegant in a backless floaty white gown with gold sequins, and hair swept to one side. She was voted ‘Ultimate Woman’s Woman’ by Cosmo readers, and she definately looked the part! Newly pregnant, Denise Van Outen, played it cool in a printed shift dress and black leggings. Black was a definite theme throughout the evening!
Other winners of the night included: Holly Willoughby, named Ultimate TV Presenter, EastEnders star Lacey Turner, named Ultimate TV Actress; and ex-EastEnders star Brooke Kinsella, honoured as the Ultimate Celeb Who Made Us Care for her campaigning against knife crime following the death of her brother Ben. Gavin And Stacey star Ruth Jones was named Ultimate Funny Woman, cricketer Andrew Flintoff was given the award for Ultimate Man of the Year.
