EXCLUSIVE: The Channel 4 show is one of the UK’s favourite dating programmes to date and producers have been keen to sign up famous faces – but one of them has turned it down
A huge pop star has revealed that Channel 4 came knocking at his door – but he was not willing to strip off on screen for Naked Attraction.
Ian Watkins, also known as H from Steps, claimed it was not a programme for him as he turned down the offer to partake in the programme – which, according to a Channel 4 spokesperson, “has not been cancelled and discussions are ongoing on recommissioning”.
When asked if there was any shows he wouldn’t do in the future, he told us: ” I’ve done most of them… Ha! I obviously said no to celeb Naked Attraction.”
Though one show he did sign up for was Celebrity Big Brother, which has just come to a close for another year. Ian did the show back in 2007, which was arguably the most controversial series to date.
His series was dominated by the Jade Goody and Shilpa Shetty’s controversy which took up a lot of air time that year. Talking about this year’s show and his season, he added: “I’ve not watched this series yet. But my time in the CBB house was a controversial series. It catapulted and destroyed careers! I’m still friends with Shilpa!”
Throughout his sparkling pop career, H did confess to some of his biggest regrets with us. He revealed: “Saying yes to everything! I pick and choose wisely now. I say ‘no’ a lot… Which makes room for more ‘yeses’!”
In other news, the signer has teamed up with Tesco Mobile to launch its ‘5, 6, 7 Freeze’ campaign, offering frozen prices for customers who take out a Clubcard Price contract.
According to the 2,000 Brits polled by the network provider, almost half (46 percent) admit they feel frustrated when a supplier tells them that their bill is rising and admit that looking at their bills feels like a tragedy (23 percent).
Mobile phone price increases (37 percent), mystery broadband increases (34 percent) and energy standing charges going up (34 percent), are most likely to make our blood boil.
Talking about this, Ian said: “As a busy parent, juggling bills alongside everything else life throws at you can feel overwhelming. The constant worry about rising costs only adds to the stress.
“That’s why it’s such a relief to know that families like mine can stay connected without the fear of unexpected price hikes, thanks to Tesco Mobile’s Frozen Prices on Clubcard Price deals.
“It means one less thing to think about giving us more time to enjoy the moments that matter. To help parents remember to check their bills, I’ve created a fun TikTok dance, called the 5,6,7, Freeze. It’s on my TikTok, check it out!”
