A STAR of television dance hit show Pineapple Dance Studios will attend the Face of West London finals in Uxbridge.

Paulette Minott, who has worked with music stars Rihanna , The Sugababes and Mariah Carey , will judge the auditions of those hoping to perform at the grand final.

Since late March, modelling scouts have been scouring Uxbridge, Ealing, Harrow and Buckinghamshire for the most stunning 15 to 24-year-olds.

They will take to the catwalk on the day of the grand final on May 22, when the cream of the crop in terms of dancers and stage performers will showcase their talents.

To get to perform at the final, talented artists must audition in front of Ms Minnott and the Face of West London's official choreographer, 3Dom.

The auditions are on Sunday, May 9, between 10am and 4pm at The Chimes shopping centre, in Uxbridge High Street, where the final will also be held.

Pineapple Dance Studios is a Sky One television show which follows the lives of those working and auditioning at the world famous dance studio in Covent Garden.

Would-be contestants for the model search have been sending in their entries via the Gazette's website, and a selection of entrants from across the borough is shown here.
