Christine Bleakley wins TV award despite ratings slump
TV PRESENTER Christine Bleakley has been crowned top TV host at a Women of the Year awards event - despite the flagging ratings of her Daybreak show on ITV.
The 31-year-old's win came in spite of figures released last week that showed only 530,000 viewers were tuning in to watch her on the troubled breakfast show - a third of the audience for its BBC rival, Breakfast.
Among the other winners at the star-studded Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Of The Year event at the Banqueting House in London, was Doctor Who beauty Karen Gillan, who took home the top actress award.
Fellow redhead Nicola Roberts of Girls Aloud - who launched her own make-up range for pale skin this year - won the fashion award.
Roberts' bandmate Kimberley Walsh also attended the event - she was on a panel of celebrity judges who selected the winners.
