27-year-old glamour model Jodie Marsh has found a new way to keep stress-free and healthy: regular massages from her new boyfriend, Blazin' Squad's Kenzie!
Jodie described her man's technique, which he apparently learnt in the Big Brother House, as amazing. "Blokes don't generally like giving massages but Kenzie always offers," said Jodie. "And he never gets bored. He keeps going for as long as I want."
Despite much media speculation surrounding the infamous Essex girl's three-month relationship with 19-year-old Kenzie, she maintains that her pop star fella is "the best thing that has ever happened to me." In fact, for the first time in a while, it seems she's ready to commit. "I would never cheat on Kenzie in a million years," she gushed. "We are completely in love. This is the best relationship I have ever had."
Jodie insists the pair have a lot in common. Kenzie is her regular companion when she embarks on her second favourite stress-busting pastime - shopping - although things can get a little out of hand. "We're shopping addicts", said Jodie. "We have similar taste in tracksuits and trainers and wear matching stuff. I spend more money than I should when I'm shopping with Kenzie - we egg each other on. Recently I spent £10,000 in one trip. I never look at price tags."
She freely admits she's addicted to such accessories as belts, hats and costume jewellery and it is this addiction which has at least in part been responsible for Jodie's fame. The purchase of two army belts from Top Shop and an army surplus store proved priceless as Jodie wore them as tops and promptly turned herself into a tabloid media darling. "One cost a fiver and the other a tenner. It was a small price to pay for so much publicity," she revealed.
Perhaps because of this stroke of good luck, the notoriously publicity-hungry glamour model insists her favourite designer is...herself! "I design all the stuff I wear to red carpet do's," she said. And ever the charitable glamour girl, she gives all her old clothes away to her local Oxfam. "Anything I am photographed in, I can't wear again, so every couple of months I have a clear-out and pay a few visits to Oxfam in Brentwood."
Jodie was also recently seen having her teeth veneered on Channel Five's Plastic Surgery Live but contrary to what you might think for someone photographed so regularly and whose image is her living, she insists that perfection and vanity "are just not me."
"I've never liked my teeth," admitted Jodie, "but I never cared enough to fork out 20 grand to have them done. But when Channel Five offered to do them for free, I thought 'why not?' - I don't see having your teeth done as 'real' plastic surgery, anyway."
But what of her infamous long-running feud with fellow glamour model Jordan? These days, Jodie seems happy to laugh off comments from her bitter rival that she has "the nose of a builder's elbow".
"She can say what she likes," said Jodie. "I have had a nose job because when I was younger, I broke my nose playing hockey. I admit it. Jordan looks like a big plastic cartoon freak. Perfection is not an issue for me. I'm not that vain."
