Cheryl Cole hit the headlines last weekend after opting for a rather outrageous dress on X Factor.

Her £1,500 David Koma design wasn't very popular, being compared to vinyl records, piano keys or rubbish bin lids.

Who wears it best? Beyonce and Cheryl Cole in the same dress

But it seems Beyonce hadn't heard the news. At the MTV Europe Music Awards she was spotted in an almost identical outfit by the same designer with metal piping snaking across the bodice.

It wasn't met with so much critcism though. In fact it was nothing but praise for Beyonce as she scooped a hat-trick of prizes, dedicating one of them to husband Jay-Z.

After being named best female, Beyonce told the audience: 'I have to dedicate this award to all the other beautiful artists. Thank you MTV for this wonderful honour.'

She also wore a raunchy red corset and mermaid inspired fishtail dress. We think you look incredible Beyonce.
