Why Celebrity Big Brother and why now?
Why Celebrity Big Brother?! I say why not! Anything that will challenge me and scares me is always something that I ’m interested in doing, and Celebrity Big Brother is ICONIC! Over the past few years’ I’ve been doing back to back shows and went from Hairspray, straight into Oklahoma, straight into Guys & Dolls so it’s going to be very strange to be in the same house for a few weeks!
What do you hope to get from the experience?
I hope to let the world find out more about me as a person and not just the roles that I play. I’m excited to represent the theatre community on this huge platform. I want to tell my stories and inspire people who come from small towns who don’t have a lot, but who dream big and hopefully I can inspire them to dream bigger. I wa n t t o g e t t o k n o w t h e Housemates on a personal level, not just what we know about them from the media. And Oh yes I do want to win too.
What most scares you about the experience?
The thing that scares me the most about this experience is having to clean the toilet behind other people.
