Party in the streets!

Islington gets its flags out...
We've heard all about the X Factor homecomings on the news and in the papers - but as well as her Koko concert, Alexandra also enjoyed a special celebratory street party at home in Islington.
The pavements near Alexandra's own home were packed with friends and family and neighbourhood well-wishers - and it all came as a shock to the singer!
She told us, "I had no idea there was going to be a street party, but when I got near home, I could see that there were flags everywhere, that pink and white bunting stuff, and everyone gathered around".
"My family organised it, with the lovely Luisa from the crew - and it was a proper party. They had an urn to make tea in, and biscuits and everything. It was good to see my neighbours again. And I saw loads of people I haven't seen in YEARS"!
