Former glamour model Jodie Marsh has revealed she used to bag a whopping £10,000 per week as a lap dancer after graduating from an expensive private school.
The 43-year-old TV personality gave her first interview to British politician and TV presenter Nigel Farage on his GB News show Talking Pints after a six-year hiatus from TV.
Eager to learn more about the star’s rise to fame, Nigel, 58, asked Jodie about her transition from grade-A student at an exclusive private school to starting a career as a lap dancer.

“You went to Brentwood school and were doing really well. Much better grades than I got,” said Nigel.
“You had the grades you were thinking about becoming a lawyer. You had it all going for you. And you became a lap dancer. What happened?” he asked.
To which Jodie replied: “I know I went to the best private school ever and then I just became a lap dancer.
“I don’t know. I got offered a job. I used to go to Stringfellows on a night out and I was sitting there one night and somebody said ‘why do you keep coming here for a night out you should work here.’”
She went on to reveal she managed to bag up to £10k per week at the peak of her career.
“The guy said yeah you could make a fortune, and I said how much are we talking and he said at the time it was about £2k per week or something like that.
“Anyway I ended up working there and I made about 10k per week, it was great fun.”
Viewers took to social media to applaud the star for the interview, where she also talked about being a huge Trump supporter, dubbing it “inspirational” and “refreshing.”
One fan gushed: “Inspirational interview. Such a down to earth and refreshing guest. Well done, well said Jodie.”
“So refreshing listening to that interview,” said a second.
Another added: “Just saw Jodie Marsh on Talking Pints on @gbnews. It’s probably one of the best on talking pints to date. Brilliant Lady.”
Jodie was also asked about her opinions on trans athletes in sports, and whether they should be allowed to compete in women’s sports.
Nigel asked: “we’ve seen this big debate going on about trans athletes – this is men who go through puberty with a male body and then wanna go swimming or play whatever sport – how do you feel about that?”
Jodie replied: “I think there should be a separate category for trans. Women who use to be men should not be allowed to compete in women’s races because naturally biology tells us that men are stronger and faster and all the rest of it.
“You know im never gunna beat a man in a running race ever. Well mostly coz of my enormous boobs it would probably knock me out but yet separate categories.”
