Britain’s favourite ladies, Girls Aloud filmed their Christmas special last night and it looks brill!

The girls looked super glam wearing various outfits including silver fishtail dresses, black tutus and pretty pink dresses.

There are set to be appearances from James Morrison, Kaiser Chiefs and Paul O’Grady?!!

Sarah Harding told the audience: ‘2008 has been a great year for us all and what better way to round it off than with a festive special.’

‘The show is a true Girls Aloud Christmas party and loads of fun.’

So girly, so christmassy, I can’t wait!!!!!!

The Girls Aloud Party is to be aired on ITV1 on Saturday 13th December, the same evening as The X Factor Final no less.

Our favourite WAG Cheryl Cole is fast becoming the queen of Saturday night entertainment!

Girls Aloud’s Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding celebrated their 27th birthdays on Saturday night with a bit of party.

All the Girls Alouders were out apart from Cheryl Cole who was judging this little singing contest on ITV.

The girls celebrated in style by partying in Camden and getting a wee bit tipsy.

I had a few choices of Girls Aloud pictures for this blog, I could have used Nadine Coyle in current WAG status with American footballer Jason Bell. Or Kimberley Walsh looking gorgeous in a fab pink dress or even Sarah Harding simply because it was her birthday.

But no instead I have opted to share a rare moment with you all, which as you can see is Nicola Roberts smiling. And not just an awkward fake smile, but a full on ecstatic (possibly drunk) laugh.

There could be another reason for Nicola’s happiness though, in form of a new man. Yes the Girls Aloud singer was spotted attending the birthday bash with a very cute new fella, no idea who he is yet, but we hope to find out soon.

Isn’t it lovely to see her smile for once, keep it up Nic!

Well we knew as much, but here’s proof that Cheryl Cole is in fact a better judge and mentor than the loveable Simon Cowell.

If you didn’t already think Cheryl Cole was cool, then these revelations from her contestant and my fav contestant Alexandra may change your mind.

Alexandra Burke says: ‘We have the best mentor. We went for a pizza at her house and she brought us all new phones.’

‘She made us hot chocolate and she sent four boxes of doughnuts to the house for all the contestants, too.’

The X Factor contestant continues: ‘And she wants us to stay over before she moves house. She has been through a lot in her life and she told us deep secrets so she’s really open with us.’

‘We were able to be open with her too. We had a good old cry round there. She is normal and she is human.’

What I would have given to be a fly on that wall!!

And in case you thought Alexandra was just a bit biased, then here’s what Sophie from Bad Lashes who were the first to be voted off on Saturday, had to say:

‘After the show we spoke to Cheryl and her mum for a long time. Cheryl was telling us what songs she would have given us. She totally got what we were about.’

Yep she really is genuinely nice!!

Here is Girls Aloud at the book signing of their new book ‘Dreams That Glitter’.

P.s. Lovely to see Nadine back with the girls again, I was starting to worry she’d do a Geri or Robbie!
