Alex's Big Break

He's told a shorter version before on Day 55, but Alex has again been regaling the group on how was first discovered as a model.

Chatting well past 4am, the Essex boy told how he'd just been kicked-out of college for failing two assignments and so went to the Premiere of Batman and Robin just to cheer himself up.

They were stood there all star-struck as a stream of celebrities went past, including Richard Branson, Zoe Ball and Jay Kay from Jamiroquai.

Then, taking advantage of a surge in the crowd, Alex and pals jumped into his car and manoeuvred into the line of celebs' cars.

And, having made it through the gates to the Battersea Power Station bash, he parked his Nissan Micra next to Jay Kay's Ferrari and Diana Ross' Merc!

Having cheekily gatecrashed the party wearing jeans and trainers, the failed student danced the night away as Boy George DJ'd, and rubbed shoulders with the likes of The Prodigy, the Spice Girls and George Clooney.

A talent scout then approached the teenager and said, "You've got such a nice face, are you a model?" Alex was initially sceptical, but played along when the guy asked him if he'd like to become a model.

"I gave him my number and wanted to have a bit of a joke," said the fussy one, before telling how the scout called him the next day and the rest, as they say, is history!
