Big Breakfast - Kelly Brook

Kelly Brook joined us hot from the set of the Big Breakfast on Thursday 15th April to have a natter! See what she had to say...

Kelly Brook : Morning all!

C4ChatEd : Mornign Kelly. Let's get cracking!

Garbage : How difficult has it been to adapt to live, early morning television?

Kelly Brook : The first couple of weeks was the hardest. I felt permanently jet-lagged, it messes up your whole sleep cycle, and your life really :) But now I'm really into it, and quite look forward to going to bed at 8 p.m. of a nighttime, especially since I've been up since 3 a.m!

jackson : Whats it like working with Johnny

Kelly Brook : Johnny's been really brilliant. I'm always pestering him in the mornings for advice, and he's always very open to suggestions and generally very supportive. And obviously, he's a laugh :)

Mark : Who's the most famouse person you've met?

Kelly Brook thinks. Probably... I'd say, the one person I got really starstruck over was Roberto Benigni, director of Life is Beautiful. He's not the most famous, but he was like, the one person I just thought 'wowwww!'

Gazza : whos the person you have i/v youd most like to have a beer with?

Kelly Brook : I think - ohh that's hard! So many...probably... Madonna. That's really cheesy isn't it :)

ScottyBoy : WHAT is your favourite way to unwind after work

Kelly Brook : Go home, cook myself beans on toast and watch a video. I'm really into foreign films at the moment...european films.

Alex : Apart from the Big Breakfast of course, what's your favourite TV programme?

Kelly Brook : Hrm...it was Absolutely Fabulous but they've stopped running it now...and Ruby Wax just cracks me up, when she does interviews and things. I admire her ballsiness, she's not afraid to ask things.

Devlin : oh, I'm finally in then.. what's it been like coming into the Big Breakfast after someone has popular as Denise left?

Kelly Brook : Well, at first it was a little bit scary, but I just tried to ignore all the hype and just get on with the job. After I'd met the crew and got to know Johnny better, I felt quite comfortable with the whole thing.

Devlin : you've done well, good work

Kelly Brook : Aww thanks Devlin

Rob : Do you still get the chance to go out with all your mates?? ie, clubbing etc...

Kelly Brook : Rob - yes, only at weekends. I usually either go out Friday or Saturday - I can't do both, I get too tired. I need Sunday to recuperate, ready for Monday! But I was never going to change the fact that I go out with my mates :)

colbalt60 : Do you get to keep the clothes you wear on the BB?

Kelly Brook : Um, most of them, yes. I get sent a lot of things that I then have to give back, but when I go out to special events there are people who lend me lovely posh frocks, the sort that I'd probably never be able to afford anyway.

clare : what did you do before the bb?????

Kelly Brook : I was modelling and I had a cable show called VPL (basically me interviewing models and celebrities).

Ben : Have you ever done anything you really regret?

Kelly Brook : Um..no. Every job I've done has been right for me at the time, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to do it. I look back and obviously cringe at some things, but it's just a big stepping-stone process to where I am now.

JonathanCameron : I've heard you've got a thing about the Web Master, is this true?

Kelly laughs. Yes, me and Webby go back a long way... the pants do it for me.

olithewally : whats your favourite type of sandwich filling ?

Kelly Brook : Cheese and pickle! You can get it everywhere and it always tastes the same. You can never get a bad cheese-and-pickle sandwich. Kelly chuckles.

Electro : Have you found that being a BB presenter gives you alot more power over people now?

Kelly Brook : No. I think it makes you a lot more vulnerable because people are aware of who you are, even if you don't know who they are.

colbalt60 : If you had to be an animal, what would you be?

Kelly Brook : Probably a... a fish.

robbie fulham : would you phone up my work and explain why im late??

Kelly Brook : Heheh...only if you do the same for me.

Mickey : What do you enjoy the most about the show?

Kelly Brook : The Webmaster...! But that's after the show, not during.

C4ChatEd : grrr!

Electro : What do you think about the shirts Jonny wears?

Kelly Brook : Erm. That's a hard one *grin* Imperfection is a sign of individuality (that's a Geri Spice comment, I heard her say that once, I thought it was wicked).

Rob : What are your favourite Clothes Designers??

Kelly Brook : oo, Elspeth Gibson...Gharani Strok...I love the shop Ko Samui...any funky designers really (those are all in London).

lee : what is it like to be famous?

Kelly Brook : Hm. It has its ups and downs. It's nice when you want it, but at the end of the day it's a full time job. I can't ever switch off from being Kelly Brook...!

Nathan Wade : Kelly, does Johnny swear a lot off screen?

Kelly Brook grins. Not in my company! He's a gent (if you believe that then you'll believe anything)!

Matthew Buckley-Rees : If you were offered a slot on the show all to yourself and you could do anything in it, what kind of thing would you do? Gardening maybe?

Kelly Brook : I'd like to do extreme sports. Maybe jumping out of aeroplanes or driving tanks. Just anything totally mad and totally un-me. You'd get genuine fear, which'd be very amusing for people watching that don't like me. Kelly laughs.

ROSS MAXWELL : do you have a boyfriend?

Kelly Brook : Yes :) Where've you been?

Alex : What do you have for your breakfast?

Kelly Brook : I have frosties with hot milk (not here, at home, they don't do that at the House).

Robert : Robert Birminmgham> Do you read the papers and take any notice of critics?

Kelly Brook : Critics are there to criticise, so why would I want to read nasty things? I only take notice of the critics if I think it'll help me or my performance. Raaaaaaah! Yeah right.

ScottyBoy : Do you have any more plans to do more magazine shoots for mens magazine such as FHM, Maxim, etc because you always look amazing in them

Kelly Brook : Maybe....but not for the time being...I've done a few magazines, and to be honest I'm a bit bored of being played with. After doing the show I'm usually too tired to do anything else anyway apart from go home and chill-l-l-l out!

Patrick : If you weren't you who would you be kelly ?

Kelly Brook : Kelly Parsons!

scu98cfm : What was the last film you saw?

Kelly Brook : American History X. An excellent film. Ed Norton is just fantastic.

Nemisis : Whats your schedule like , do you get the rest of the day off now after you stop talking to us nerds or do you have to do scripts for tomorrow with Johnny ?

Kelly Brook : Well, we have a meeting at 9:30, then me and Johnny are off to the cinema! It's purely professional, right *grin*.

debbiefrench : DO YOU GET HASSLED WHEN YOU ARE OUT NOW?

Kelly Brook : Erm, honestly? Yes I do, a little. But fortunately when I go out clubbing, I'm always with a lot of friends, so they come and rescue me if they think I'm having my ear chewed off. I wouldn't say 'hassle', more 'over-eager interest' perhaps.

Robert : Robert Birmingham> Who's your favourite comedian and what car have you got?

Kelly Brook : OK - favourite comedian: Harry Enfield (favourite character, Wayne and Waynetta Slob)....and I drive a Honda CVR.

Paul rutter : How do you manage to look so good that early in the morning?

Kelly Brook : Three hours in makeup seems to do the trick! (Just).

Matthew Buckley-Rees : Where do you like to go on holiday?

Kelly Brook : I'd love to go to Bora-Bora...or Tahiti...it's such a world away and very very beautiful.

Moonbeam : How many party / celeb invitations do you get a week?

Kelly Brook : Oo, it really does vary. I accept about two a month, only if they're relevant to what I'm doing, or who I know. What's the point in going to a party when you don't know anyone??

keith : Do you have any burning ambitions?

Kelly Brook : Erm...burning ambitions, yes but they're all too embarrassing to tell you! Tell you what, I'd love to be the voice on a cartoon. Betty Boop, Pocahontas...

ENIGMA : would you consider yourself as a nominee for this years sexiest woman?

Kelly Brook : Who's judging? Kelly grins. If it was my decision, *absolutely*. Heh heh heh.

C4ChatEd : Thanks Kelly for coming to speak to us. It was great! Thanks everyone for coming in - there'll be another Big Breakfast chat soon... Goodbye!

Kelly Brook : See you in the morning!!

Juliete : bye kelly
