Lillie's Bordello was the place to be last night when a host of big names from the world of pop came out to party following the Cheerios Childline Concert at the O2.
Among those spotted enjoying the celebrations at the exclusive Grafton Street club were JLS stars Aston Merrygold, Marvin Humes, Jonathan Gill and Oritse Williams, along with last year's X Factor winner Alexandra Burke.
Speaking exclusively to the Herald, singer Jonathan, otherwise known as JB, explained how the band remains in close contact with Alexandra, after coming second to her in the talent show, and enjoyed the chance to catch up with the up-and-coming pop star.
Alexandra revealed how she was reluctant to stay out too late however, as she had an 8am flight to catch back to London as did fellow fellow reveller and R'n'B star, Taoi Cruz.
Jonathan, meanwhile, expressed surprise that The Saturdays made it out following the gig, given that he believes the fivesome are sensible and don't party too often.
However, band member Una Healy of Tipperary hit back, saying that JB hadn't seen her in action yet.
Atmosphere
"I'll show him how an Irish girl can party," she said. "We'll definitely prove him wrong. It's just a flying visit, I'd love to get everyone to come over here for a proper night out."
Also enjoying the atmosphere at the club was Westlife singer, Kian Egan, who invited his younger brother, Colm, to join him as a guest. The Sligo popstar was joined by bandmate Mark Feehilly, who was spotted partying until the early hours alongside boyfriend, Kevin McDaid.
X Factor judge Louis Walsh was also out on the town, as was ex-Six star Liam McKenna.
Former Miss World Rosanna Davison was spotted enjoying the entertainment with boyfriend Wesley Quirke and his brother, Andy. Also among the stars was reigning Mr Ireland, Kamal Ibrahim and his fellow Mr Ireland contestants, Shane Lennon and Johnny Hammond.
