Katy Perry and Diana Vickers performed their new singles and brought in event production and performance specialists' Cirque Bijou to make their performances visually stunning.
When Katy Perry took to the stage to perform her new single Firework, the backdrop featured pyrotechnics. Cirque Bijou's Julian Bracey worked with Quantum FX and international show designer Baz Halpin to manage a team of four fire dancers who wore pyrotechnic backpacks.
Cirque Bijou's Billy Alwen worked with choreographer David Leighton and 24/7 Productions to direct a troupe of circus artists; recreating the circus theme of Diana Vickers' new video as the star returned to the stage which shot her to fame two years ago. Cirque Bijou supported the singer with aerial silk performers, fire juggling stilt walkers and hula hoopers to complete the impressive circus display.
Geraldine Harris, company manager said, "We are extremely proud to be involved in the highest rating show on the television. Working with two separate production teams to perform alongside stars such as Katy and Diana was fantastic for all involved."
