And she had such a good battle plan for her new Hollywood life too - the singer shared her red carpet beauty secrets and revealed just what products she keeps in those tiny clutch bags, and one quite clever trick.

"In my red carpet clutch bag I keep eyeliner, of course," said Cheryl. "And lip gloss and sometimes I have a pre-loaded little blusher brush in the bag. It can make the inside of the bag a little dirty, but it's a good trick."
