Beyonce Knowles sent temperatures soaring at the London premiere of her new film Dreamgirls, despite the chilly weather. Dressed to impress in a shimmering Elie Saab number, the 25-year-old had all eyes on her as she took to the red carpet bare-shouldered and without a coat.

The beautiful chanteuse was on 'bootylicious' form. The Lebanese designer also created the striking gold sequinned dress she wore to the Golden Globes.

"I'm not wearing it for long and it's worth the pain," she joked, when reporters commented on her choice of outfit.

Dreamgirls - which is loosely based on the story of the Supremes - has already picked up three Golden Globes and is a hotly tipped contender for the Oscars. "I can't wait to hear what's going to happen with the Oscars. I'm happy already," Beyonce said.

The singer wasn't the only person making a stylish impression at the premiere, however. Beyonce's co-star Jennifer Hudson, who scooped the best supporting actress award at last week's Golden Globes awards, was elegant in a classic Ben di Lisi gown, while Kelly Osbourne flattered her curves in a full-skirted black wrap dress. Reality TV star David Guest was also among the star-studded audience.
