THE former home of one of Bolton's most famous sons, Lord Leverhulme, will host Colleen McLoughlin's 21st birthday showbiz bash.

Thornton Manor, on the Wirral, will be the setting as Wayne Rooney's girlfriend marks her coming of age tonight.

It has been said that she is using the party as a test run for her wedding, which is planned for next summer.

And it is rumoured that the £200,000 party will be circus themed with acrobats and trapeze artists, with Rooney set to be the ringmaster.

The celebrity guests will be treated to music, with speculation that P Diddy and the Sugababes will be performing.

Girls Aloud, the Beckhams and dozens of footballers have been invited to the party.
