But while she appeared to be happy to be part of the show, a few years back she had some very harsh things to say about it.
When asked by Metro in 2012 what shows she had turned down she told them Big Brother was one of them. She didn’t hold back either.
She said, “(I’ve turned down) Big Brother more than once. The last time they made a very big offer and I said no. I find it vulgar and voyeuristic. I wouldn’t do the jungle either, I wouldn’t eat that sort of stuff.”
