“Everything has its place. But I didn’t want to do it, so I said no.
“That’s really not my thing. And you don’t want to pigeon hole yourself because this industry does that anyway. I had to veer away from that and concentrate on more comedic shows.”

Maria was advised to keep quiet about her work on Eurotrash – originally presented by Antoine de Caunes and Jean Paul Gaultier – to avoid getting more X-rated offers.
She added: “My agent said, ‘Let’s leave it off your CV’. She didn’t want me to be known for doing sexy things.”
Maria has starred in a string of big shows including Killing Eve, Holby City and Fat Friends. Fans can get Eurotrash on DVD and digital from September 26.

Eurotrash was easiest the naughties programme on TV at the time, airing n Channel 4 in the 90s.
The broadcaster even described the show as: “Boasting spectacular sets, cheeky yarns, gargantuan boobies, oddball antics, and of course – naked people in places you wouldn’t expect to see naked people.”
The show’s X-rated antics, including celeb sex confessions and the world’s biggest boobs certainly got people talking, along with the hilarious wit and charm from French co-hosts, Antoine de Caunes and fashion guru Jean Paul Gaultier.

Jean-Paul often wowed spectators with a number of racy outfits and steamy content, alongside co-host Antoine.
Back in the 90s, he was probably more famous for his work in the fashion industry, including wild and flamboyant creations before he took centre stage on the wacky and explicit show in 1993.
After the show drew its final curtain in 1997, he returned to his root in fashion creating the luxury brand Hermès in 2003.
In 2020, Jean-Paul declared he was retiring on his 50th-anniversary at the haute couture show, during Paris Fashion Week.
