Gorgeous pop singer, Rachel Stevens arrived in a body-hugging black and grey
Herve Leger off-the shoulder dress. Her quintessential and modern smouldering eyeshadow (that perfectly matches her frock) looks youthful and fresh against peachy cheeks and shiny nude lips. I also love how her rich, honey-toned highlights create an overall warmth to her skin.

The
2008 Pride Of Britain awards took place last night, with a whole host of celebrities showing up to hear the amazing and touching stories of the nominees and winners. We'll be able to share in the awe-inspiring tales of these Brits when the show airs on television tonight, at 8pm on ITV1. Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton giggled under their Union Jack-emblazoned umbrella as they arrived to present an award, and Cat Deeley and Rachel Stevens were among the other guests using the brollies on the red carpet.

I am so excited for the start of
Strictly Come Dancing season six! We've still got a couple of weeks to wait until the show begins, so in the meantime let's get to know the contestants a bit better. Here's the lowdown on the eight female celebrities and their male professional dance partners.

Rachel Stevens was dressed for the colder weather we've been experiencing as she chatted on her mobile in London yesterday, but the former S Club singer will be swapping her jeans and coat for some slinky sequin numbers over the next few weeks, as she takes to the dance floor for
Strictly Come Dancing. The
official lineup has been announced, with GMTV's Andrew Castle, Olympic swimmer Mark Foster, the One Show's Christine Bleakley, actor Don Warrington, Holby City's Tom Chambers and broadcaster John Sergeant joining those we'd heard about.
When I asked you about the rumoured contestants last week, you were most
looking forward to seeing Rachel.

We've been hearing lots of rumours about who's signed up to appear on the next series of Strictly Come Dancing, with the latest recruits being footballer
Teddy Sheringham and ex-S Club singer
Rachel Stevens plus Lisa Snowdon. They join
Jodie Kidd, Heather Small and Gary Rhodes on the list of rumoured contestants, along with Eastenders' Honey
Emma Barton and
Melanie Sykes. While we wait for the
official BBC announcement at the end of next week, I want to know your thoughts, so tell me: which of these rumoured contestants would you most like to see on the show?

Singers, designers and actors took advantage of the lovely weather yesterday and headed to the Blackberry Bold Summer Party in London's Covent Garden. Rachel Stevens teamed her dark blonde hair shade with natural makeup —
do you love or hate her look? — while Henry Holland matched his casual outfit to the sunshine and proved men can rock the cut off shorts trend too! Joel Beckett showed off his checked shirt —
the item du jour at T4 On The Beach — alongside Eastenders' Emma Barton.

Rachel Stevens looked fresh and glamorous at the
Blackberry Bold Launch party, last night, in London.
I love this darker blonde shade on her – her hair looks ultra sophisticated and shiny at the moment.
She's kept her makeup natural, and the soft pink lip gloss really suits her warm skin tone.

We're used to seeing her girl-next-door glamorous, but
Rachel Stevens went for an elegant, polished look at last night's Strictly Gershwin drinks at the Royal Albert Hall.
Her long, side-swept fringe gave a more tousled edge to the refined makeup, but do you think she looked classically beautiful or just a little, well, boring actually?

Tina O'Brien was crowned Celebrity Nose of the Year 2007 last night at the London ceremony hosted by Alesha Dixon, who sparkled in
on-trend blue. The Perfume Shop has taken the idea of Rear of the Year up in the world, literally, by creating this award to honour the stars with the best honkers. Staff in stores across the country
chose a shortlist of 12, which included Rachel Stevens, Kate Middleton and Sir Alan Sugar.
