She was joined by the likes of Never Gonna Give You Up singer Rick Astley, who looked typically dashing in a black suit.

King Charles will not attend this year’s COP28 climate summit in the United Arab Emirates.
The event, now in its 111th year, is hosted by comedian Bradley Walsh. However, it will not be broadcast live on TV and will be shown on December 17.
This year the event will be held at the Royal Albert Hall, but at various locations around the capital.
Mel, full name Mel Chisholm, attended the event with theater friend Ben Forster.
Headliner Cher, 77, will perform tunes from her upcoming Christmas album. She will be accompanied by pop stars McFly, Paloma Faith and Rick Astley.
Mel C will also take to the stage, 26 years after her girl group told Prince Charles he was ‘very sexy’, kissed his cheek and squeezed his bum.
The first show began in 1912 when King George V and Queen Mary attended the Palace Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue.
There have been many iconic moments since then, including The Beatles making their irreverent debut on the show in 1963 when John Lennon asked, “Would the people in the cheaper seats clap your hands?” And the rest of you, as long as you rattled your jewelry.”
