AJ Odudu stuns in red dress at Manchester event

AJ Odudu caught attention at the Comic Relief's 40th anniversary event in Manchester. She wore a stunning red dress with a corset top and a high slit. The 37-year-old presenter paired the dress with strappy heels and posed for photos. Joining her was Alison Hammond, 50, who looked elegant in a black velvet blazer, wide-leg trousers, and a semi-sheer top. Both women radiated joy as they posed for the cameras. The Sugababes also attended, featuring members Mutya Buena, Keisha Buchanan, and Siobhán Donaghy. Mutya, 39, sported a plunging black top and a mini skirt, while Keisha, 40, wore a strapless leather top. Siobhán, also 40, adopted a more edgy style with a leather shirt and studded skirt. The event came under scrutiny when some viewers expressed frustration over an old James Corden sketch that aired during the live show. Fans hoped for new comedy but felt disappointed by the replayed content. The telethon featured many 80s musical icons to kick off the celebrations. An emotional tribute also honored stars who had supported Comic Relief over the years, including Liam Payne and Sarah Harding. The segment was introduced by host Davina McCall and set to Queen's "Those Were the Days."
