The stars rolled up at the Irish Mirror’s first ever Pride of Ireland Awards 2014 tonight, oozing glamour to recognise brave and courageous people and celebrate their heroic acts.
From Una Foden and Carol Vorderman, to Louis Walsh and Jedward, stars dressed up in their most glitzy gowns and suits to recognise brave stars across the country.
Hostess Carol Vorderman glowed in a long black dress and fellow presenter and Saturdays singer Una Foden stole the show in a sleeveless cream and classic evening gown made of heavy silk.
With her hair loose and held to the side, the stunner kept all eyes on her in the strapless number - next to her presenting pals.
Carol, 53, flew herself from London to Dublin with her partner Graham Duffy by her side.
She presented an award to Sister Helen Culhane, who helps children deal with grief.

The domestic violence case between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is getting messier by the minute, and now they're dragging other people in the midst of their conflict. Depp apparently accused his wife of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton back in 2015, but the actor has completely denied all allegations. 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star Billy Bob Thornton has branded the suggestion that he slept with Amber Heard during the production of their latest movie 'London Fields' as 'completely false' according to reports from TMZ . The story is that he 'never socialized with Amber off set, other than a cast dinner', and adds that he had no on-set contact with her either, other than in a professional capacity. Of course, in the movie, their character's are close; it follows the story of a manipulative young woman named Nicola Six (Heard) who strings along three men including a writer named Samson Young (Thornton) in a bid to bring about her own murder.
