Not sure that we want her there but Katie Price is heading for the jungle where she hopes to 'star' in UK's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Her mind is on genitalia! She said, "I bet I get to eat a willy (an animal one, that is!). I can't eat a willy! I have requested that because I have veneers (on my teeth), if there is anything nice and chewy, I better have a knife and fork - otherwise I won't be able to chew it."

Billie Piper The Hooker

After much hype and publicity Billie Piper was on television last night in the ITV2 new series, Secret Diary of a Call Girl.

Because of all of the speculation, and hints of naughtiness, male viewers were no doubt glued to the television as Billie played the part of the high class hooker Belle de Jour. It is thought that it attracted the highest number of people ever to an ITV2 programme - mind you, that's not too difficult.

Though very 'saucy' in parts some viewers will have no doubt have been disappointed that Billie Piper kept most of her flesh well covered.
Will this become a well watched series long term? It's difficult to say. The programme was only half an hour long and nearly 10 minutes of this seem to be advertising. It was difficult for her character to develop, or the storyline for that matter, in such a short time. What Billie did though was nicely acted and she looked great. The jury, as they say, is out.
