Charlotte Crosby looked stunning as she attended the star-studded Michael screening in London on Thursday. 

The TV personality, 35, donned a chic brown polka dot mini dress as she posed up a storm for cameras on the red carpet ahead of the event. 

Flashing a glimpse of her toned legs, Charlotte layered a stylish brown double-breasted wool coat over her shoulders. 

To complete her look, she donned a pair of slouchy brown cowboy boots, accessorising her look with gold accessories. 

Also in attendance were Tinie Tempah, Bobby Brazier, Emeli Sande, and Sarah and Aston Merrygold. 

Tinie, 37, looked effortlessly cool in a blue padded jacket paired with faded black cargo trousers.

Bobby, 22, cut a suave figure in an all-black ensemble as he posed for cameras on the red carpet. 

Emeli, 39, cut a chic figure in a little black dress paired with semi-sheer black tights and studded ankle boots. 

Aston, 38, and his wife Sarah, put on a loved-up display as they cosied up for a snap together on the red carpet. 

The screening comes after the trailer for the 'magical' new Michael Jackson biopic gave fans a sneak peek of what to expect as the King of Pop's nephew takes on the role. 

Jafaar Jackson, the son of Michael's brother Jermaine Jackson, takes on the role of the Billie Jean singer in the film, titled Michael, which is due for release this month. 

The movie will tell the story of the hitmakers life beyond the music, from his days as lead of the Jackson Five to the height of his 1980s fame. 

And a first look sees Jaafar, 29, transformed into Michael - and joined by his iconic pet monkey Bubbles for one scene together as they sit down to read a book. 

Other scenes see Jafaar performing on stage as his late uncle, as well as recording his hits in the studio, and heading on tour to satisfy demand from international fans. 

Also in attendance were Tinie Tempah (seen), Bobby Brazier, Emeli Sande, and Sarah and Aston Merrygold

The film will also include recreations of the Thriller music video, and the moment Jackson was taken to hospital after being burned filming a Pepsi advert. 

The late star's estate signed off on the making of the film, with Jaafar then cast as the leading role - alongside Hollywood stars Colman Domingo and Miles Teller. 

The movie was due to be released last year, but was pushed back to this Spring over supposed legal issues that led to required reshoots and revisions to the script. 

Acclaimed filmmaker Antoine Fuqua, who is behind the likes of Training Day and The Equalizer, directed the project, and heaped praise on Jaafar. 

He said: 'It goes beyond the physical resemblance. It’s Michael’s spirit that comes through in a magical way. You have to experience it to believe it.'

Despite the singer's estate approving the movie, Jackson's daughter Paris, 27 distanced herself from the project over 'inaccuracies'.   

'The narrative is being controlled and there’s a lot of inaccuracy and there’s a lot of just full-blown lies,' she said. 'At the end of the day, that doesn’t really fly with me.'

'Go enjoy it. Do whatever. Leave me out of it,' she concluded.

Elsewhere in the film, Michael's fractious relationship with father Joe laid bare - with the father and son enduring a strained relationship. 

Joe ruled over his children with an iron fist - and is a topic which the film doesn't shy away from covering, showing the Jackson Five rehearsing at home. 

After Joe (played by Colman Domingo) details his plans to take his family's success to the next level, Michael is shown hesitating. 

'I'm planning an international tour. This is just the beginning!' Joe happily exclaims to reporters in one scene shown in the trailer. 

But the thought makes Michael pause. 'I need to think,' he says during a private meeting with his family, to which Joe hits back: 'I told you what I think.'

'I love my family, but I just wanna do my own thing,' Michael says. 'I just have all these ideas in my own head. I just need to get them out.' 

Michael's career began alongside his siblings as part of the family's Jackson Five band. It was Joe who served as the band's manager and pushed them to success.
