Why did you apply to be on this new series of Big Brother?
I applied purely for the experience. I like to do new things, and like to try and push myself, and wanted to have an experience like no other.
What do you think you’ll bring to the house?
I’ll bring a lot of enthusiasm and fun. I will bring a lot of opinions. I like to have a spirited debate. I’m quite a strong character. If I think something’s wrong, I’ll call it out as being wrong – I’m not afraid to do that. I think most importantly I’ll bring a lot of fun. I’m going in to enjoy the experience and have a good time.
What are you looking forward to the most about being a housemate?
That’s a long list. But to narrow it down, it would be to live in a house with other people would be so different. I’m looking forward to that because that’s slightly out of my comfort zone. To be in a house with that many people will be a challenge, but I’m looking forward to it.
Do you have a strategy for making it to the final?
I don’t. I don’t think you can because there’s no set formula. It’s not like the X Factor where the best singer wins. If you look back at past winners, there’s no common theme. I’m just going to go in, be myself – if people like me, happy days. If they don’t and boot me out in the first week then so be it.
What are you most likely to get nominated for?
Accidentally offending someone – someone taking something I’ve said the wrong way. Not a terrible offence, but if someone takes something I said the wrong way.
Tell us one thing about yourself you think will surprise people the most.
I was Prince [King] Charles’ butler. I think that’s one thing that will definitely surprise people.
Who would be your dream celebrity to live with?
There are a few. George Michael for sure. That’s number 1. In terms of singing and the absolute best. I think he’d be a real laugh.
What would you do with the money if you won?
I’ve had loads of thoughts about that. I’m quite vain. I got composite bonding on my teeth last year. And they stain – I love a glass of red wine so I would get a new set of veneers so I could enjoy a glass of red wine again – I’d like to get back to that.
