Preened and perfect: Alesha Dixon takes to the stage in her red, sparkly dress


She's famous for her risqué stage outfits and energetic dance routines.

But yesterday the 31-year-old singer's love for the outrageous landed her in trouble, when she suffered a wardrobe mishap while performing at Leeds Party in the Park.

Alesha had taken to the stage in a short, sparkly red dress, teamed with thigh-high black boots and a corset-style belt, but quickly found the outfit was not ideal for performing her trademark dance moves in.


Up, up and away: Alesha's dress rode up during her performance, showing her tights and underwear


As she sung some of her most famous hits to the audience, the dress rode up, showing the tops of her tights and her underwear.

However, the fashion faux pas did little to faze Ms Dixon, who carried on performing regardless.

Alesha is getting ready for the release of Unleashed, the followup to her 2008 record The Alesha Show.

Speaking about the new album, and first single Drummer Boy, Alesha said in a video on her official website: 'I'm really excited about the new record. Time is ticking but we’re getting there and we’re nearly ready to come with the album.


Gorgeous in (black and) gold: Pixie Lott performed some of her hits for fans





New trend? Pixie wore a leopard-print garter belt with the letter P on it


'We're just mastering it, mixing it and making it as good as it can be for you guys. I’m really excited, I hope you guys are as well.

'Look out for the new single Drummer Boy when it drops at the end of August or beginning of September. I’ll keep you updated! I’m off to LA in a couple of weeks to shoot the video with Ray Kay which is exciting!'

Alesha, who first shot to fame as part of band Mis-Teeq, has collaborated with stars including Toby and Miranda Cooper, who co-wrote her hit The Boy Does Nothing, and
Buzbee, who wrote Bad Boys for Alexandra Burke.

The singer has also been working with Take That star Gary Barlow, with whom she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro for Comic Relief last year.

Other stars to appear at the Leeds music event yesterday included The Saturdays, who wowed the crowd in matching colourful outfits, Basshunter and Pixie Lott.

Pixie looked stunning in her black leather dress and gold micro jacket, but appeared to be attempting to start a new fashion trend by wearing a leopard-print garter to finish off her outfit.

The 20-year-old singer, who has designed a series of ranges for high-street fashion store Lipsy, wore the unusual accessory, which was even embellished with the letter P, throughout her performance.



Causing a stir: Jedward, aka John and Edward Grimes, performed ahead of their gig inside the Big Brother house next Friday night


Loving it: Thousands of fans swarmed Leeds' Temple Newsam Park for the event


And while Pixie's performance went down a storm with the crowds at Temple Newsam Park, it may be that we start to see the pop princess less on stage and more on the silver screen.

Pixie recently signed up to appear in comedy Sweet Baby Jesus, a modern retelling of the traditional nativity play.

The Essex-born singer will play a hippy called Mary, who visits Bethlehem with boyfriend Joseph, while her mother will be played by Hollywood actress Sharon Stone.

Adrien Brody and Bette Midler are also being lined up for roles in the movie.

Producer Philippe Rebboah said: 'It made me laugh out loud. The script has such fun subverting the treasured details of the Nativity - posing the question, "What would we do if it all happened again?" '

Jedward also performed at Party in the Park, ahead of their appearance on Big Brother next Friday night.

The energetic pair will apparently enter the house during the live eviction show and put on a special performance for the housemates.

Speaking about the show, Jedward told the Daily Star: 'We're extremely honoured to be the first people in the show's history to go into the Big Brother house to do a performance.

'We're so excited to get in there and see the housemates face to face.'
