I have to say I've always been fairly indifferent to Kelly Brook in the past, although I have to say that when she did the whole "I'm not going to appear naked anymore" then proceeded to appear in practically every magazine or newspapers doing just that it did kindo of grate on me.
Then having seen her present I thought she was more wooden than a park bench (imho) and her acting is not really much better so when I heard that she was in this and had come through extensive stage school training and had had loads of dance training in particular I thought "at last maybe she'll be good at something and nice to see her real personality rather than just a body".
Ever since, we've been bombarded with semi-naked pictures of her, her saying she needs to stay in to show her skin coloured leaotard - in the semi-finals of course!!!- how no one will vote for her coz she's too beautiful etc etc etc.
Still prepared to give her the benefit of the doubt I then see her on Saturday in a totally inappropriate outfit for training, constnantly flashing her wares then saying "oh you're naughty" "stop looking up my skirt" etc - i thought she was completely embarrassing tbh. Everyone else seemed to be having fun being themselves whilst she was trying to get all the attention to herself. In the other training session she looked to be wearing little more that a skimpy top and knickers. Then the hair flicking....don't even get me started!!!!!!
I really wanted her to do well tbh but from the first impression she annoys the hell out of me and I really want someone much less full of their own look and importance to win - Letitia (looks great fun and camps it up to the full). Alesha (stunning and able to move while smiling), Penny (who looks a little out of her depth but could be fantastic) and would love to see how Kate gets on - I think a perfect quote from her to sum it up was "Kelly was moaning about how she ALWAYS had trouble with her rumba, I don't even know what a rumba is, let alone if I have trouble with it!!".
I hope my opinion will change but right now, I really hope the other ladies show her that you don't have to flash the flesh to win this competition, you have to be dedicated. Or have the judges final vote....and that's a whole other story.....
I hope I'm proved wrong and she does turn out to be really nice...time will tell but the main thing is that the best celebrity DANCER wins not the person who the show feels will generate the most publicity for them.
