Alex Scott made a surprising appearance at the Grammys in a stunning silver dress.

The BBC Sport pundit, 38, told fans she had to 'pinch herself' as she got ready with her glam squad to attend the star-studded event in Los Angeles.

Posting a video of herself on Instagram in which she stunned in a slinky silver dress and matching Versace heels, she said: "I'm like a big kid, I'm so excited!"

Alex filmed the clip from the back of her chauffeur-driven car before rocking up on the red carpet outside the Crypto.com Arena.

The annual awards - at which Beyonce cleaned up - were hosted by Trevor Noah and attended by a host of famous faces, including Madonna and Sam Smith.

After the bash, Alex rocked up at Universal Music's party at which she shone alongside a flurry of famous faces.

The former footballer has come a long way from her days as a professional sportswoman.

She's now the toast of BBC sport, presenting Football Focus and covering international tournaments.

Alex also presents The One Show and also rocked up on Strictly Come Dancing in 2019.

However, the star has had to work hard for her media career.

Last year she opened up about having a speech impediment in a candid interview.

Alex shared her story on Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO podcast

The presenter, who had speech therapy when she was younger, said: "I felt like I couldn't get across what was going on in my head.

"It's almost as if I formed a habit of just laughing at myself before everyone else laughs at me.

"Or, just not finding my voice and not speaking out because I'm scared."

The former footballer said that despite her brain working "so quickly", the environment she grew up in made it easier "not to speak".

Earlier in the podcast, Alex spoke of her 'traumatic' home life claiming she and her brother could only speak 'when they were spoken to'.

Due to this she explained her mum didn't realise anything was wrong with her daughter because Alex "just wasn't speaking".

Since stepping into the spotlight as an Arsenal football player, the star has become one of the Beeb's best broadcasters, however Alex admitted she has to work extra hard when she's in front of the camera.

"I'm not [over it]," she said of her speech disorder.

"I can hide it a lot better or I know I have to re-word things or memorise scripts."
