Belinda Carlisle was red carpet ready on Thursday when she stepped out looking absolutely incredible.

The 64-year-old defied her age with her appearance and showed off her youthful complexion, famous smile and red tresses.

The singer - who rose to fame in the 80s as the lead singer of The Go-Go's - beamed for the cameras as she posed up a storm at her Christmas party in West Hollywood.

Belinda looked effortlessly chic in a black, turtle-neck sweater and long skirt at the event she threw to raise money for her animal care organization, Animal People Alliance.

The star leads a very healthy lifestyle which includes yoga, and a healthy diet. She's been sober since 2005, and last year she opened up about her former drug and alcohol addiction in an interview with Australia's New Idea magazine and admitted: "I can't believe I'm not dead."

Speaking on Loose Women in 2017, Belinda also confessed: "I've lost so many friends to drugs and the fact that I'm sitting here is really pretty amazing. You have to hit some sort of rock bottom - mine was a spiritual one. I was telling so many secrets and lies all the time."

“It’s so weird, because I was going to retire," Belinda, told Retro Pop magazine. "Just work occasionally and live a nice life. Then my son ran into Diane Warren at Starbucks and she goes, ‘What is your mom doing?’ He says, ‘I don’t know,’ and she goes, ‘Oh, then let’s call her!’.

"She has the foulest language in the business and she goes, ‘Bitch, what are you doing? I have some hits for you'."

"I was like, 'Do I really want to do this?’ Because it’s a big commitment when you do something like that. But I went to the studio and I don’t even know what to say – it was so good."
