Alexandra Burke has reportedly set aside £50,000 for a welcome home party when she returns to Britain in August.

The X Factor winner is currently recording her debut album in Los Angeles but is expected to celebrate her 21st birthday with friends and family in London.

"Alex hasn't been home for months after working on her album, which is due in the autumn," a source told The Sun.

"Her family can't wait for her to get back and want to celebrate with the mother of all parties."

According to reports, Burke has already given part of the money to her mother Melissa, a former singer with Soul II Soul, to redecorate her North London home.

The 'Hallelujah' star's debut album is expected to include songs produced by Timbaland, Red One, Stargate and Jay-Z.
