Mel C flashes her bra under a statement white suit as she joins Hannah Waddingham and Paloma Faith in leading the stars arriving at the Royal Variety Performance 2023<\/h1>\n

Mel C rocked the red carpet as she led the star-studded arrivals at the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday evening.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Spice Girl, 49, looked as chic as ever as she flashed her blue bra under a statement white suit as she was among the first to take to the red carpet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She was joined by the likes of actress Hannah Waddingham, 49, and Never Gonna Give You Up singer Rick Astley, 57, who looked typically dashing in a black suit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Royal Variety Performance is now watched by over 152 million TV viewers worldwide – however it won’t be broadcast until December 17.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is back for 2023 – and this year will see William, Kate in the royal box, along with Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and her husband, Prince Daniel.<\/p>\n

Mel C led the star-studded arrivals at the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday evening, joining Hannah Waddingham and Paloma Faith<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Prince and Princess of Wales put on a business-as-usual attitude as they attended the Royal Variety Performance 2023 amid a deepening race row reignited by Omid Scobie<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mel, full name Mel Chisholm, attended the event alongside Ben Forster<\/p>\n

This year’s event promises to showcase ‘international stars, world-class theatre, sensational and hilarious comedy’ in the presence of its royal attendees.\u00a0<\/p>\n

King Charles will not be present as he is at the COP28 climate summit held this year in the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n

Now in its 111th year, the event will be hosted by comedian Bradley Walsh. However, it will not be broadcast live on TV and will be shown on December 17 on ITVX.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year, the event is being held at the Royal Albert Hall and, as always, is in aid of the Royal Variety charity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As well as its famous royal attendees, the event was also host to a plethora of celebrities and well-known faces.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mel, full name Mel Chisholm, attended the event alongside theatre pal Ben Forster.\u00a0She looked ever the sporty spice, as she gave a glimpse of her toned abs underneath the iconic ensemble.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mel was very glammed up for her evening out, with her chestnut locks styled into loose waves, while adding a hint of red nail polish.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hannah Waddington nailed the essence of royal glamour as she exhibited her glorious curves in a bejewelled figure-hugging gown.\u00a0<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The 49-year-old has become even more of a national treasure after hosting the UK-based Eurovision song contest earlier this year<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hannah’s stunning attire boasted a large silk drape that acted as a train<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mel was very glammed up for her evening out, with her chestnut locks styled into loose waves, while adding a hint of red nail polish – as she is due to take to the stage later on<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Arriving at the same time was pop singer Zara Larsson, who looked incredible in a glittering bronze gown with a low scoop neckline and statement hood<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The symphony singer, 25, went full glam with her make-up, opting for black winged eyeliner and glossy plum lipstick to match the tones of her gown<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Zara later changed into a crop top, mini skirt and knee-high boots for a stunning performance in front of the royal attendees<\/p>\n

The 49-year-old has become even more of a national treasure after hosting the UK-based Eurovision song contest earlier this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hannah looked nothing short of sensational with a silk gold tie draped around her stunning ensemble, while she kept her platinum locks elegantly combed back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The royals themselves brushed off the fallout from a ‘race row’ reignited by journalist Omid Scobie as they beamed upon arrival at the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kate, 41, paired her stunning gown with an equally dazzling smile as she stepped out in Kensington, showing no sign of anguish after a turbulent week for the royal family\u00a0following the release of a bombshell book.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Amid the controversy, the Princess of Wales maintained a ‘business as usual’ attitude as she attended the annual event with Prince William and their guests, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kate’s stunning teal floor-length gown featured flared sleeves and was paired with diamond jewellery. She wore her thick brunette locks in curls.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Prince William took his wife’s hand in a show of chivalry as the pair walked along the red carpet to attend the Royal Variety Performance<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kate, 41, opted for natural make-up with a touch of eyeliner, a nude lip, some blusher and bronzer\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The royal couple beamed as they stepped out of the car and onto the red carpet ahead of a night of entertainment<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Prince William looked sharp in a black tuxedo, and he acted as the perfect gentleman as he held out his hand for his wife as they took to the red carpet.<\/p>\n

The British royals will no doubt be hoping an evening of entertainment at the Royal Albert Hall will distract from an awkward week after the 2021 controversy resurfaced.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Arriving at the same time was pop singer Zara Larsson, who looked incredible in a glittering bronze gown with a low scoop neckline and statement hood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The symphony singer, 25, went full glam with her make-up, opting for black winged eyeliner and glossy plum lipstick to match the tones of her gown.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

She was joined by a radiant Beverley Knight, who wowed in a stunning metallic gown which boasted a cinched-in design to the fabric, giving a unique spiral-like effect.<\/p>\n

The Greatest Day singer, 50, styled her locks with a middle parting, while the low-cut neckline showed off inches off her radiant skin.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Samantha Barks, 33, turned heads in a royal blue gown with a plunging ruffled neckline.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Paloma Faith brought some very unique poses to the red carpet with an ethereal crystalline sepia gown<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The New York singer, 42, opted for smokey eyeliner which made a stark contrast to her highlighted locks<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She was joined by the likes of Never Gonna Give You Up singer Rick Astley, who looked typically dashing in a black suit<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ben, Rick and Mel C all posed together for snaps as they were among the first to arrive on the red carpet<\/p>\n

Mel\u00a0C will also take to the\u00a0stage, 26 years after her girl group told Prince Charles\u00a0he was \u2018very sexy\u2019, kissed his cheek and pinched his bottom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Paloma Faith brought some very unique poses to the red carpet with an ethereal sepia gown.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The New York singer, 42, opted for smokey eyeliner which made a stark contrast to her highlighted locks.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The first show began in 1912 when\u00a0King\u00a0George V\u00a0and Queen Mary\u00a0attended at the Palace Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since then, there have been many iconic moments, including the likes of\u00a0The\u00a0Beatles making their irreverent debut on the show in 1963 when\u00a0John Lennon\u00a0asked: ‘Would the people in the cheaper seats clap your hands? And the rest of you, if you\u2019d just rattle your jewellery.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

The 1960 show was the first to be televised – and it has only reached new heights of popularity each year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2023 performance is expected to see the likes of Ellie Goulding, Paloma Faith and Hannah Waddingham.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Each year, The Britain’s Got Talent winner is also allotted a performance space – and this year it was Viggo Venn, who is known for his love of hi-vis clothing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now in its 111th year, the event will be hosted by comedian Bradley Walsh<\/p>\n
