ONE of them is the biggest-selling pop act in the country, the other is a 58-year-old veteran.

So which one was fighting off the ladies at Wednesday night's Prince's Trust Fashion Rocks show at the Royal Albert Royal Albert may refer to several places named in memory of Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha:
  • Royal Albert Hall
  • Royal Albert Bridge
  • Royal Albert Dock

 a beauty at the model-swamped bash, the newly-single Bryan Ferry was fighting them off.

Our backstage spies reveal that 29-year-old Robbie got increasingly desperate as he attempted to bag one of the 80-plus models who took part.

"He was stalking about back-stage sticking his head in various dressing rooms saying 'Hello, I'm Robbie, let's party'," says one.

"He was charm personified but the girls were busy so they really didn't have time to listen to his attempts at chatting them up. In fact, after a while, one even turned to him and said: 'Give it a break, we're working'."

One of the girls in the firing line was English beauty Louise Adkins who was enticed to Robbie's dressing room for a "chat".

But before he could go in for the kill, she was dragged away by organisers who told her to "put him down and get on the runway".

Another source says: "After failing to get anywhere with Louise, Robbie tried his luck with a model called Jacquetta Wheeler Jacquetta Wheeler(born on 16 October 1981) is an English supermodel. Her father, Stuart Wheeler, worked as an entrepreneur, and mother Tessa was a successful photographer.

As a child, Wheeler lived a comfortable, moderately affluent lifestyle with her family in England.
 - but he got the cold shoulder again. She said he was charming but not her type."

Meanwhile, Bryan, who was dumped last week by his 22-year-old girlfriend Katie Turner, was surrounded by adoring beauties.

In fact, the Roxy Music Roxy Music is an English art rock group founded in the early 1970s by art school graduate Bryan Ferry (vocals and keyboards). The other members are Phil Manzanera (guitars), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe) and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion).  singer's popularity was such that organisers spent a frantic 15 minutes searching for two of their models only to find them draped over the crooner. He finally left with a clutch of models' phone numbers

Robbie - who was given a watch by designer Donatella Versace as a thank you for wearing her clothes on the night - had no such luck and even blew out a private audience with Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles in the hope of pulling.

He'd been invited to a drinks reception hosted by the Prince during one of the intervals but never showed up. One onlooker pointed out loudly: "He's too busy chasing skirt - but he's not catching any."
