She wore an all black ensemble with an oversized blazer that boasted with satin lapels and pockets.

Lulu completed the look with tight trousers and a sequinned top with chunky jewellery as well as a pair of dark shades.

She added extra height to her frame with a of towering heels and oozed confidence as she strolled along the red carpet.

Lulu was joined by a whole host of famous faces including Duran Duran's Simon Le Bon, 65, who was dressed to impress in a classic tuxedo .

It comes after Lulu proved that age was just a number as she took to the stage at Glastonbury last week, where she performed for the final time after announcing her retirement from touring.

The pop star showcased her age-defying looks as she wowed the crowd at Worthy Farm after announcing her retirement from touring .

She looked cool in black tasseled trousers and a black shirt, while also sporting her bleached blonde locks and a sun-kissed tan.

Lulu - who was awarded a CBE in 2021 for her services to music - delighted fans at the outdoor show with a collection of her smash hits - and proudly brought her grandson on stage during the set.

Her set included her biggest hit Shout, although she joked: 'I thought I'd leave it out!

'No, the main thing is you go to Glastonbury and give them what they want. That song is a part of me. You give them that part of you. They're happy and you're happy that they are.

'It's an exchange. Bringing people joy is what I do. It's what I get for doing it. I love it, I look forward to it. How lucky are we, to be in the business of music?'.

She first performed at Glastonbury nine years ago in 2015 and performed this year in the Field of Avalon.

Lulu, born Marie McDonald McLaughlin Lawrie, in Glasgow, burst onto the music scene in 1964 at just 15 with her hit Shout when John Lennon and Paul McCartney named it as their favourite record of the week.

In 2000 she was appointed an OBE and in 2021 was upgraded to a CBE. Mid-pandemic, Lulu wasn't able to receive the honour from a member of the Royal family.

But she had met the now King in his capacity of Prince of Wales in 2000.

She said: 'In a strange way I've felt connected to him all my life. We were born in the same month in the same year. When we met, he was totally Prince Charming.'

Lulu is now preparing for Glastonbury which she'll perform at for the final time after announcing her retirement from touring.

Her set will include Shout, although she joked: 'I thought I'd leave it out!

'No, the main thing is you go to Glastonbury and give them what they want. That song is a part of me. You give them that part of you. They're happy and you're happy that they are.

'It's an exchange. Bringing people joy is what I do. It's what I get for doing it. I love it, I look forward to it. How lucky are we, to be in the business of music?'
