Meanwhile, dance unit Attraction, 80s figure skaters Torvill and Dean, the cast of the hit West End musical Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and singer Mary J. Blige each had their part to play in the glamorous evening that will be broadcast by ITV in December.

Jessie J's revealing white outfit may have raised some eyebrows whilst she shook hands with Charles and Camilla but the meeting seemed to go by without any offence caused or embarrassing slips, though admittedly the future King did look a little redder than usual.

Jessie J, who last year shaved off her hair for Comic Relief, spoke ahead of the Variety show to express her excitement towards the honour of graduating to a coveted Variety slot. "I have watched the Royal Variety Show since I was a little girl and always dreamt of being on it. It will be a real special moment for me. I can't wait," she said, via The Express, adding "It feels like you've got a sense of responsibility as a British artist to fulfil the standard."

The Royal Variety Performance will be screened on ITV on Monday 9th December.
