Star quality: X Factor finalist Rebecca Ferguson was looking stunning as she left a gym in Covent Garden, London, last nightShe always been one of the more stylish X Factor finalists - but Rebecca Ferguson seemed just that little bit more polished when she made a chic exit from a gym last night.
Wearing the standard popstar uniform of sunglasses on a dark winter's evening, the glamorous Liverpudlian single mother didn't have a hair out of place.
While Matt Cardle was busy getting a fake tan and Cher was being embarrassed by Cheryl Cole on the dancefloor, Rebecca was snapped leaving the Nuffield Gym in Covent Garden after a workout.
No sweat: The Liverpool lovely didn't have a hair out of place after her work out But despite her exertions on the treadmill, she emerged looking immaculate in a tailored purple coat, nude coloured dress with matching heels and luscious red lipstick.
Rebecca, 24 is currently second favourite with bookmakers to win the contest on Sunday night - and is perhaps pulling out all the style stops in a bid to beat the competition.
She's certainly popular back home. Rebecca travelled with mentor Cheryl Cole to her home town of Liverpool earlier this week to perform a special concert at the city's Echo Arena.
The wannabe was mobbed by fans, many of who brandished banners saying 'Well done mummy.'
Cher, her fellow finalist in Cheryl's Girls category, had also been at the same Covent Garden gym last night.
Made-up: Cher Lloyd was also seen leaving the Nuffield Gym in Covent Garden last night - perhaps X Factor finalists get reduced rates She left wearing her favourite label, Paul's Boutique.
The girls were joined by the One Direction guys who seemed so fired up by their session they didn't seem to notice the freezing temperatures outside.
Work it out: Liam Payne and Niall Horan were clearly in their hot blood as they left the gym last night
Buffed up: Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik had also been pumping iron ahead of their X Factor final battle this weekend Matt Cardle had also been pumping iron at the central London fitness centre - but seemed curiously camera-shy when he left - or maybe it was just a bid to beat the biting cold.
The former painter and decorator pulled his scarf across his face as he left with his fellow finalists - but soon let it slip when a fan wanted a picture taken with him.
Say cheese: Matt The Hat soon revealed his face when it came to a photo opportunityMeanwhile, Rebecca was also looking good enough to eat after she was immortalised on a BISCUIT.
The star's (sort of) likeness has been iced onto a choc chip cookie, along with the rest of the X Factor finalists - Matt (featuring an unfeasibly large chin), a quite uncannily accurate Cher and a rather unconvincing One Direction.
Crumbs!: Millie's Cookies has baked the finalists onto cookies as the competition heats up ahead of the finalMillie’s Cookies has rustled up the sweet treats featuring the finalists for a bit of gun in raspberry, vanilla and chocolate icing.
The crumbly yet chewy contestants will be sold for three days only on eBay with the highest bidder possibly predicting the outcome for Sunday’s big final - and all proceeds are going to charities Help For Heroes and Childline.
The cookies go onsale today on eBay.
