Life after The X Factor looks promising for Hannah Barrett after she was asked to support fellow talent show superstar Leona Lewis, on Saturday evening.
The singers, who both started off on the ITV1 programme but were seven years apart, took to London's G-A-Y stage for a special event.
Leona, 28, stepped out in a show-stopping dress for her performance alongside two topless male dancer were clad in festive, red trousers.

The Moment Like This singer looked to be having a great time as she paraded around on stage wearing a pair of sexy, over-the-knee boots.
The London-born star, who won the 2006 series of the show, would hopefully be able to offer Hannah plenty of the advice as the most successful contestant in the show's history.
Her eye-catching outfit was made up of large, black and silver sequins while her curly blond hair was worn down over her shoulders.

Leona chatted to MailOnline about coaching Sam and explained that the finalist's main challenge is putting her own unique spin on the song.
She said: ‘It was cool. It wasn’t mentoring really, just chatting. She has such a good voice. When I first heard her I thought she should be in the final.
‘Her main worry about the song was making it her own. It’s such a well-known song and she didn’t want to divulge from the melody. But it’s about having a balance – she didn’t want it to sound like karaoke so she needed to put her own spin on it.’
