Katie Price has joined ‘Celebrity Big Brother’.
The 36-year-old star was unveiled the surprise new housemate tonight (16.01.15) after Chloe Goodman was voted out in the first live eviction, and hopes viewers will get to know "the real Katie Price."
The former glamour model, who is reportedly being paid £500,000 by Channel 5 after Ken Morley and Jeremy Jackson were removed from the house for unacceptable behaviour, admitted she only agreed to appear on the show because "the price was right."
Speaking shortly before entering the house, she added: "I haven’t done one of those [reality competitions] for a few years so it is a good chance for them to see that I am still the same normal down to earth person."
The brunette beauty was "glued to the show" while recovering from her recent breast reduction, but doesn’t think the surgery will affect her behaviour in the house.
She said: "There is a doctor on standby the whole time to keep checking me, but other than that my banter is still there!
"I don’t know what I’m going to be like in the house. Most people probably want me to say I’m going to go in there and I’m going to stir the pot. I’m not going to say I’ll be like that because until I’m in there, who knows? I might go in the house and become really good friends with Katie Hopkins; you don’t know what is going to happen. I will take her as I find her and treat her accordingly. I haven’t been in this situation before. I’m a mysterious girl so you will have to wait and see!"
Katie attempted to convince fans she was enjoying a romantic trip to Brussels with husband Kieran Hayler to celebrate their second wedding anniversary before entering the show.
