'Call The Shots' singer Cheryl opted for a short black minidress and heels for her red carpet appearance as did Nadine Coyle, who chose an off the shoulder number.

Sarah Harding chose to keep it bright for her red carpet appearance in a sparkly black and white top and leggings, Nicola Roberts wore a white tuxedo style coat and dress and Kimberley Walsh wowed in black and white leopard print leggings along with a cropped top.

Girls Aloud are expected to perform some of the most popular hits of their ten year career later today when they open the final day of the 2012 Jingle Bell Ball.
