You know you’ve got a reputation as a diva when nobody tells you that you’ve come out without your trousers.

This is what happened to Mariah Carey this week as she attended a Halloween party supposedly dressed as a firefighter.

However, her outfit seemed to comprise of a red bra and knickers set, suspenders and boots, with a token fireman’s jacket thrown in for good measure.

Her husband Nick Cannon, unsurprisingly, seemed pleased as punch with his other half’s choice of costume, although he chose not to bare his bottom and opted for the full ensemble.

The pair rode a fire truck to the party they attended at a New York club, no doubt putting dozens of people who opted for the regulation broomstick and cape to shame.

Meanwhile, the BBC reports that masks of the presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama have been flying off the shelves as costumes for this evening’s night of fright.

Anyone keen to get their hands on a bejewelled bra like Mariah may wish to try lingerieplease.co.uk, where Gossard do a similar one – although we wouldn’t advise wearing it outside, given the recent drop in temperatures.

Victoria, meanwhile, will begin to appear on billboards and in magazines early in 2009, although she may have to gain a little bit more confidence, having once said she looks “bloody awful” naked.

Commenting on the appointment, Mr Armani said: “Victoria is a style icon, a dynamic lady whose influence and recognition will add great excitement to the continued international growth of our underwear business.”

With Katie Price having adopted a more high-brow lifestyle of late, you’d have been forgiven for thinking that she may have left hard-core partying to those more desperate for the exposure.

However, last night (October 26^th), she was spotted vamping it up like the old days, even going so far as to wear her underwear pretty much as outerwear.

The former glamour model, who recently said that one of her dreams would be to compete in a horse-y event at the 2012 Olympics, attended the re-launch of London club Movida and left clutching a bottle of champers shaped like the Eiffel Tower.

She wore a black leotard with fishnets and knickers over the top, as well as a black push-up bra that made her look still quite well-endowed, despite having had a breast reduction earlier this year.

Price met up with Paris Hilton to dance the night away, although her hubby Peter Andre chose to attend a separate event, doing nothing to quell rumours that the pair’s romance is on the rocks.

A number of brands offer frilly French knickers as sported by Price, including Gossard and Wonderbra, but most companies probably expect you to wear them inside your clothes.
