CHANELLE Hayes has blasted rumours that she's desperate to bag herself a fitness DVD deal.

In April, the former Big Brother contestant had been accused of putting on weight to do a money-making weight loss DVD.

Speaking to New! magazine Chanelle, 28, said: "It does my head in - people always think I'm lying.

"But a DVD isn't on my radar."

She added that she was busy moving to a new country and sorting out her son Blakely's schooling: "I don't have time to exercise every day with a full face of make-up on."

Chanelle had appeared on This Morning in April when Phillip Schofield grilled her over her true intentions.

On the show, the silver fox had said: "It doesn't help when you tweet 'If someone offered me a DVD I would jump at the chance of earning pounds'."

She responded: "To be fair, if somebody did say to me... if I put on a couple of pounds... 'are you interested in doing a DVD alongside that?' then I would never turn it down.

"I'm a single parent, I need to pay the bills like everybody else and I would never turn down money like that, I'm not silly like that."

To which he said: "But you've also said you want to be a plus-size model so are you looking where the most pounds are? With the DVD..."

Speaking to New! she joked: "I expect a full apology from Philip Schofield when it comes to January 1!"

Talking more about feeling happy with her figure, she revealed that she's never been happy with her figure but "things are really good now" and she doesn't see a reason to change.

But she still doesn't like to weigh herself these days: "I don't even know where the scales are... I don't really care."
