Some of the country's more familiar female stars have banded together for a colourful campaign as part of this year's Children In Need.

Elen Rivas, Jo Whiley, Kristina Rihanoff, Gemma Atkinson, Alesha Dixon and Lydia Bright appear in a bright, bold fantasy world entitled The Land Of Cake Believe to aid the charity's forthcoming appeal.

The stars pose with large cakes, gingerbread men and lollipops for the special shoot.

A hole lot of fun: Lydia Bright parks her backside inside a doughnut in her shoot for Children In Need's Land Of Cake Belief campaign

Lydia Bright from The Only Way Is Essex poses in a tiny green spotted top with even smaller blue shorts, yellow sock and red heels - her backside sunk into a doughnut and gingerbread replicas of Pudsey Bear at her feet.

 

While Alesha Dixon sits on a swing made from a large candy cane, wearing a silky pink dress with matching heels that have cakes on the end of them.
Former Hollyoaks star Gemma Atkinson perches herself on a giant cupcake pretending to eat a giant Smartie.

Elen Rivas beams as she places a cherry on top of a cupcake in her shot - she wears a blue dress with cherries in her hair.

Kristina Rihanoff plays hostess, carrying her cake with hand - she's the only participant whose outfit is a perfect match for the cake she's posing with.

Jo Whiley plays it simple, opting to pretend to take a bite from her huge gingerbread Pudsey.

The ladies are helping to promote Children In Need's campaign to encourage the people of Britain to bake goodies and raise funds for this year's appeal.

Many of the sweets and treats in the shoot are giant versions of Asda’s Children in Need baking goodies.

This year marks Asda’s eleventh year as BBC Children in Need’s fundraising partner, selling exclusive baking ingredients, Pudsey and Blush products, T-shirts and many more Pudsey goodies to help raise much needed funds.

Asda is aiming to raise a whopping £1.75million this year to support the appeal.

Meanwhile One Direction and Susan Boyle have recently been confirmed to perform at this year's Children In Need.

Model behaviour: Elen and Lydia model Children In Need items that are available from Asda

The X Factor group will open the appeal night programme with their new single Gotta Be You, while Miss Boyle will sing a track from her forthcoming album Someone To Watch Over Me.

They will be joined by JLS, Westlife and The Children in Need Collective, who will play this year's Children In Need single Teardrop.

The Collective includes Gary Barlow, Ed Sheeran, Ms Dynamite, Labrinth and Tulisa Contostavlos.

The show, which is broadcast live on BBC One on November 18, will also include appeal films from Kylie Minogue, Jessie J and Cheryl Cole and Sir Terry Wogan, Tess Daly, Fearne Cotton and Alesha Dixon will be presenting.

Bags of appeal: Gemma Atkinson and Alesha Dixon also wear items on behalf of the charity

All the action at Caprice's 40th Halloween party

Did somebody spike the punchbowl? Worse for wear Elen Rivas, blood-spattered Imogen Thomas, and scantily-clad Sonique tumble out of model Caprice's 40th Halloween party

Halloween is often used as an excuse to don the shortest and tightest costumes you can find.

And that appeared to be the dress code for model Caprice Bourret's 40th birthday last night.

The model was joined by a host of celebrities, many of whom flashed a bit too much skin and looked worse for wear, tripping over on the pavement after the night at London's Cuckoo Club.

Are you okay? Peter Andre's ex Elen Rivas toppled over several times outside London's Cuckoo Club, where she arrived with WAG Lizzie Cundy

Watch your step! A man on the door gave Elen a hand to steady herself as she nearly crashed into some cones

Good night then? Imogen looked worse for wear and flashed her derriere as she got into a taxi on her way home

Peter Andre's ex Elen Rivas put on a show for onlookers, falling over several times on the payment and ungracefully puffing on a cigarette as she sat with friends outside the club.
She was dressed as a sexy pirate wench in a red and black outfit and hat.
The former Dancing On Ice contestant arrived at the party with WAG Lizzie Cundy, who looked more poised and covered up a bit more.
She dressed as a cat in tight black leather leggings, black boots, a corset and added ears to the ensemble.

The Spanish model and former Dancing On Ice star puffed away on a cigarette outside the club

Dressing up: Elen went as a sexy pirate wench in a black and red dress and hat while Lizzie Cundy dressed as a cat in leather

She tweeted earlier: 'Gonna be getting ready with @MsElenRivas for @ByCaprice sexy Halloween party...to be a fly on the wall!... Oh my !!!'
A blonde Imogen Thomas, 29, donned a skimpy Alice In Wonderland-style dress which was splattered with blood.
She paired the number with thigh-high white socks and added a black bow to her wig.
She held hands with new boyfriend Adam Horsley who donned a Dracula suit and cape.

Another casualty! DJ and singer Sonique, dressed in a red leotard with suspenders, also fell over like Elen, pleading for someone to held her up

Good story! Elen looked deep in conversation with Lizzie and a friend, who was not in costume

What are you supposed to be? Sonique is helped up as she shows off her barely-there ensemble

The Welsh model showed just how not to get into a taxi as she flashed her derriere in the extremely short number, showing off her black lacy underwear.
She had obviously perked up from earlier in the day, tweeting earlier that she had said goodbye to her mother and was 'traumatised'.
'I cried my eyes out saying bye 2 mam earlier. I'm so emotional its scaring me! Traumatic time! Looking 4ward 2 @ByCaprice part.'
She later wrote: 'I love my costume. Undead alice...thank u @Escapade_UK its fabaduppaaaaaaaa! X'

A hunk on hand: Caprice put an arm around Duncan James, from boyband Blue, who dressed as a rich gladiator complete with strappy sandals and gold jewellery

Another casualty was DJ and singer Sonique who fell over onto her bottom on the concrete.
The 43-year-old didn't appear to be dressed as anything in particular, with her outfit looking more suited for the bedroom.
She wore a shiny red leotard that threatened to reveal more than she probably bargained for. It was paired with black black stockings and suspenders.

That's more like it! Israeli model and TV presenter Hofit Golan looked cute in a Superwoman costume and sensibly wrapped up in a white jacket outside while socialite Tamara Beckwith dressed in a leopard jumpsuit

Showing off their bones: These part-goers wore skeleton-inspired costumes to the party

And the birthday girl showed off her incredible body in a cheerleader outfit.
Caprice's blue and white two piece showed her flat stomach and long legs and she waved a pair of red pom poms in the air as she posed and smiled.
At one point she put her arm around Duncan James, from boyband Blue, who dressed as a rich gladiator complete with strappy sandals and gold jewellery.

Give me a C! Caprice defied her 40 years in the skimpy pair of shorts, emblazoned with gold stars while Imogen went for a more scary look

In her element: Imogen tweeted that she had said goodbye to her mother yesterday and was 'traumatised' but was looking forward to Caprice's party

Home time! Sonique exposes some flesh in her taxi and finally pulls on a jacket but Tamara didn't expose as much flesh as her buddies

Israeli model and TV presenter Hofit Golan got it right in a cute Superwoman costume and sensibly wrapped herself up in a white jacket outside.

And socialite Tamara Beckwith dressed in a skin-tight leopard jumpsuit showing off her killer curves.

Looks like it was a big night! The pair then hopped into a taxi to make their way home after the party

Going all out: Imogen Thomas appeared dressed as a Alice In Wonderland-type character while her boyfriend Adam Horsley wore a dracula outfit for model Caprice's 40th birthday last night

Michelle Heaton and Angellica Bell both dazzled in white as they showed off their baby bumps at the Comfort Prima Awards tonight.

The pregnant pair opted for different style dresses but both looked glowing as they posed on the red carpet.

Michelle, 31, who is expecting her first child with husband Hugh Hanley, told the MailOnline that she loves being pregnant.

Pregnant pals: Michelle Heaton (L) and Angellica Bell are both expecting their first child

She said: 'I'm so excited. I'm five months pregnant and love it. I haven't felt bad or really suffered during my pregnancy.'

She added: 'I just hope my baby is healthy so I don't mind what it is. I would like one of each but we will see how this goes.'

She showed off her pregnancy curves in a clingy and short asymmetric dress and was extremely body confident despite her changing shape.

The Liberty X singer, who announced her pregnancy in June, said: 'I don't mind that my body has changed because a baby is growing inside me and that is amazing!'

Expecting: Michelle, pictured with husband Hugh Hanley said she is 'loving' being pregnant.

Meanwhile TV presenter Angellica opted for a demure long-sleeved lace dress to display her bump.

The 35-year-old kept comfortable by taking her shoes off for the event.

And she revealed that her baby was conceived with husband Michael Underwood when she returned from filming her show 71 Degrees North, which starts on Tuesday.

She told MailOnline: 'I hadn't spoken to Michael for a month and when I got back I couldn't wait to get my hands on him.'

She added: 'I'm six months pregnant. I'm really excited, it's so amazing to be pregnant at all.'

Also in attendance: TOWIE stars Lauren Goodger (L) and Lydia Bright were on the red carpet

Channel Four stars: Big Brother winner Josie Gibson and former model Katie Piper went for casual glamour

Unlike Michelle, Angellica has experienced some difficulty in her pregnancy. She said: 'It was really tough the first couple of weeks - the nausea kicked in. But now it's fine. I love it.'

And despite a battle of the bumps on the red carpet Michelle and Angellica are in fact firm friends, who have been turning to each other for advice. Angellica said: 'I'm talking to Michelle Heaton a lot about it.'

They were joined on the red carpet by a host of other female celebrites including Eastenders actress Michelle Collins, former Loose Woman Andrea McLean, Big Brother winner Josie Gibson, and TOWIE stars Lauren Goodger and Lydia Bright.

Lauren, 24, spoke to MailOnline about her recent split from fiancé Mark Wright.

Girl power: Michelle Collins (L) and Andrea McLean were also at the awards

The reality star said: 'I am enjoying being single. We have so much going on and I'm loving going out with my girls.'

And she hinted that the third series of her hit ITV2 show will be reflecting this ethos.

She said: 'The first season was me crying, the second series was Lydia crying. The third series is all about the girls.'

Josie Gibson said she was surprised at the reaction to her recent weight loss, telling MailOnline: 'I don't even feel like I have lost weight. I am still a size sixteen.

A touch of glamour: Atomic Kitten's Natasha Hamilton (L) and Richard and Judy's daughter Chloe Madeley also attended the event

'I'm not on a diet but it does make me think I must have looked like an absolute heffer.'
She tucked into the food and wine on offer at the awards ceremony and said she is 'really happy now', despite describing her ex-boyfriend and fellow Big Brother housemate John-James Parton as 'a little p****.'
The Bristol-born reality star, 26, also confessed that ultimately she hopes to open a bar in her hometown.

Pink ladies: Hollyoaks star Gemma Merna (L) and Frank Lampard's former fiancée Elen Rives wore pink

And former model and TV presenter Katie Piper, told MailOnline of her joy following last week's fundraiser for her charity, The Katie Piper Foundation, especially after the event was attended by the likes of Simon Cowell.
She said: 'I'm so happy with how the foundation is going and last week was so great with Simon coming, and we raised so much money.'
The Katie: My Beautiful Friends star added: 'I've just signed a two year deal with Channel Four and I'm looking at launching my own beauty range now for camouflage make-up.'
