She's doing it because as much as she likes to act and pretend she's a "real businesswoman" with "a real business", she's just like all these other women who would prefer to make money the quick and easy way by taking their clothes off. And now she has a platform to do so, she's taking as much advantage as she can.

So inspirational.

Btw the Dubai photos are no way near as cringey as the previous photos

So. Much. Cringe.

Agree with the above. Annoyed that she justifies it saying 'i want to show I'm comfortable in my own skin'. So are most people, but we don't feel the need to pose in lingerie! It's nothing to do with empowerment and everything to do with milking her five minutes of fame. Stab people in the back and get your kit off... What a role model.

She looks like a twerp and it would appear highly photoshopped. Can't believe she beat Jessica to the strip off, although I was astounded she stayed in the dress on You're fired.

Perhaps the clues were there in the interview round when she confessed her cv and business plan were thrown together and that if she'd known how far she'd get, she'd have taken it more seriously.

Frances now looks more like a fame junkie than a serious businesswoman. Was it always the aim to become a Z-list celeb or is she just taking advantage of tabloids with open cheque books?

I fear that may be giving her too much credit. Because even if she has just taken the tabloid money and run, these pictures are just absolutely atrocious and their existance alone really soils her own "business persona" if she really even had one.

I feel like if she just wanted the tabloid money she could have just pulled stories out of her ass rather than do these atrocious photoshoots. I have never seen someone "modelling" in a photo shoot look so uninterested and unattractive, which is odd because on the actual show she was arguably one of the most attractive female candidates.

If you get some kind of fame from the show you have to go for it.

At least Jessica is honest about it and will take the money that is offered , she has been on radio one all over the papers this weekend etc.

If you don't win not sure if the business thing is that important you take whatever money you make

I'm sorry but I googled her before and seen some tame glamour shots and she's not that hot once out of her clothes. Clothed she's a nice, personable girl.

She looks as if she's imprisoned in a doll's house. Is that 'hot' nowadays? *Old lady voice*

Sadly the likes of Hopkins and Luisa have show that this can be a stepping stone to z list fame and so, if they can't wi the £250k, they seem to think 'ok, I'll milk my 15 minutes' for a cheap, lazy, fast buck

Which in turn will attract even more tacky contestants to the prog

I hate to say it but this year's wannabes have been awful overall, dread to think what will turn up on our screens in the next series.

I assume we can add Jessica to that list

She appears to be on the loo here

It's never fat bald men, who pose for racey photos, claiming it's to show they're comfortable in their own skin

A bit disappointed in Frances, especially as her business is selling children's clothing so not relevant at all.

With Jessica it makes more sense, as it fits the personality and she's selling clothes to adults, so sexy dresses, swimwear and underwear might be part of the range

Quite surprised at these comments to be honest. Why shouldn't she do these photoshoots etc if she's happy with the way she looks?

I'd definitely do this, if offered, in her situation... though i'm an averagely built man, so most likely wouldn't be approached for it.

She has lost the whole sweet innocent girl look she had all series with that photoshoot.

Good for her for doing it if that's the way she wants to go. She is a pretty lady.

Why not? She runs her own, moderately successful business. It probably supports her and her son to an extent. But there is money in photoshoots. Why not do it?

People have really weird ideas on here about how all candidates should be "nice" and all of them should be above making money in any way other than their business. Its super weird. If someone offered you a paid trip to Dubai why not take it?

Her credibility might be on the line were she running for public office or even running a massive billion dollar multinational. But she's not. She has two stores and 4 staff. If she wants some extra income, I doubt there are many easier ways.

She's a pretty girl who will be forgotten about before next Sunday. Might as well maximise earnings and use the publicity to help drive her business.

Good on her I say.

Frances has had her knockers, although they seem to have disappeared in that photoshoot.

Exactly. Apparently she wanted to prove she was not just another wag, so she shows she's just another wag by doing a cheap photoshoot in Dubai, a place widely rumoured to be the go to place for z Listers to get some dubious cash.
