U.S. rapper Jay-Z also attended the ceremony, where he was dubbed International Man of the Year.

In naming the teenage Church Woman of the Year, GQ magazine editor called her "a great singer, a tabloid giant."

"Charlotte Church is our Woman of the Year simply because she is larger than life," editor Dylan Jones said. "She might not be to everyone's taste, but the fact that she doesn't care about that makes her even more wonderful."
