This Morning fans have said they 'didn't recognise' Alison Hammond and she spruced up for a star-studded event alongside co-star Josie Gibson. The pair didn't hold back when it came to the glamour stakes as they hit the blue carpet earlier this week.
On Tuesday night (November 15), Alison, 47, and Josie, 37, were among the countless TV stars attending the ITV Palooza. The glitzy event, formerly named the ITV Gala, took place at London's Royal Festival Hall and is held by the broadcaster to showcase its forthcoming shows for the year ahead to advertisers and agencies. And of course plenty of ITV's own talent joined in the fun.
As well as Josie and Alison, This Morning's Phillip Schofield hit the blue carpet without his presenting sidekick Holly Willoughby but was joined by fellow daytime favourites Lorraine Kelly and Susanna Reid while his stand-in co-star Rochelle Humes also joined in the fun. The Love Island stars were also out in force, including Olivia Attwood who stunned in pink after her early I'm A Celebrity exit.
But back to Alison and Josie, who both shot to fame after appearing on Big Brother, and the day after the event Josie took to Instagram to share a snap of the friends and co-stars together. They appeared to be posing backstage as there was no fancy carpet and rows of photographers in sight.
Alison looked stunning in a black cowlneck top which boasted sequence and feathered sleeves. She wore the number of a pair of dazzling, sparkly black trousers which matched her top with feather trim bottoms. And not wanting to be too uncomfy while strutting the blue carpet, she added a pair of silver shoes with a small block heel.
Josie also looked equally as sensational as she donned a figure-hugging black gown with velvet patterned detailing which she paired with a pair of black heels. And both ladies opted for a simple, yet stylish, poker-straight style for their locks.
Taking to Instagram with the image, Josie wrote to her thousands of followers: With my girl @alisonhammond55 look how smokin hot she is," adding a flame emoji. And fans were soon flooding the comments section with compliments for the pair.

Pair of goddesses!" @shelleymartin88 shared: "You both look absolutely incredible!!! Beautiful ladies." @minniewinnietea added: "Both are smoking hot! Looking beautiful ladies!"
Josie has recently spoke about being more 'body confident' since becoming a mum. Speaking to The Sun, she said: "I always live life to the max, I love to take full advantage of everything in life. I think after I had Reggie, my little one is four-years-old now, I was instantly more body confident because your body has done something so spectacular, you can't do anything but love it.
"It's made a lovely little boy for me, and you can't help but love it after because it's so brilliant that my body was able to do that. After I had Reg I was always more body confident anyway whatever size."
