StyleJacking love to give you the run down of the red carpet fashions and last night the soap stars and reality TV stars were out in force.
There were winners and losers at the awards in terms of fashion and accolades, scroll down to find out who won the awards and have a look at all the photos from the night.
StyleJacking was impressed by the Essex girls. We loved Chloe Sims’ regal purple dress which showed off her surgically enhanced assets and Lydia Bright channelled some Hollywood glamour in a black and gold vintage dress – see the photos here.
Amy Childs did not do as well in the fashion stakes with a frilly white number that was just cheap looking! Shona McGarty who plays Whitney Dean in Eastenders also opted for a white dress, this time a shorter number.

The Sun reports that Andy Whyment, who plays Kirk Sutherland in Coronation Street was at Friday’s X Factor auditions in Manchester, “in character” as Kirk…
However, Corrie bosses told the paper that Andy wasn’t there as part of a storyline, nor was it a “stunt.”
But the Daily Mirror claims that Andy was in fact filming a storyline for Kirk which is to be shown during the show’s 50th anniversary episodes. Read more & comment »

Will it be the end of his career or a blessing in disguise?
Time will tell as Soapstar Superstar winner, 16 year old Richard Fleeshman plans to leave Coronation Street to pursue a singing career.
Its obvious from the comments on all our Richard Fleeshman articles that the boy is not short of a fan or two. So hopefully Richard will be among the few soap stars turned pop stars who actually make it in the music business!

Richard Fleeshman has revealed that he never slips the tongue while snogging on screen girlfriend Rosie Webster in Coronation Street.
He said: “There are no tongues in screen kisses – never.”
Richard also revealed to Heat Magazine that he loves his new heart throb status!
He said “It’s a lovely compliment. I just have to take it in my stride really….. It is a bit mad… I don’t know what to say about it, really. I’m just a bit dazed by it all, but I have to get on with it.”

If Richard Fleeshman’s mother actress Sue Jenkins is to be believed then it would seem that all the major UK record labels are falling over themselves to sign up the 16 year old Soapstar Superstar winner.
“It has been extraordinary,” says Sue. “I’ve got a list of record labels as long as my arm, and they’re all major companies.
“They are all saying wonderful things and are eager for Richard to sign with them, but we’re not rushing into any decisions.
“At the moment, we are having lots of discussions and seeing what deals are being offered.”
However Richard has no immediate plans to leave his train to fame Coronation Street,
“He is very happy in the Street and, at the end of the day, he’s not going to rush into anything,” she adds.
“Richard doesn’t want to do anything quickly or to cover anyone’s songs and release a quick album off the back of Soapstar Superstar.
“He had a good time on the show, but it’s time to step back, take things slowly and develop as an artist, as he wants very much to continue writing his own songs.”
Sounds like Richard has a very wise head on those ever so young shoulders!
