Katie Price ‘reveals real reason’ she was banned from Barbie premiere as she takes a swipe at Love Island stars
KATIE Price has ‘revealed the real reason’ she was banned from the Barbie premiere.
The likes of Margot Robbie, Emma Mackey and Dua Lipa lead the glamour at star-studded event at Cineworld in Leicester Square on July 12 last week.
Many famous faces were in attendance on the pink carpet, but the former glamour model, 45, didn’t get an invite.
Ryan Gosling, Will Ferrell, America Ferrera, Issa Rae and Hari Nef also posed for snaps at the event.
Celebs including Amanda Holden, Molly-Mae Hague, Georgia Toffolo and Sam Smith also joined fans soaking in the atmosphere in the capital.
Katie has shared her “disappointment” about not being there.
Speaking on the Katie Price podcast, Katie said: “I’m really disappointed I haven’t gone to the Barbie movie with you tonight. I didn’t get an invite, everyone.
“I’m not big headed, but what does annoy me is people go to film premieres half the time because they want to be pictured on the red carpet, that’s why they make an effort with what they wear.
“Every time I’ve been on the red carpet, I don’t know why, but I always overshadow whoever is in it. I get the most press.
“The whole point of doing film premieres is surely for press. Everyone knows I was glam and I love the Barbie.
“I would’ve been a perfect person to go there because I would’ve been so over the top with the Barbie.
“It’s like, the snobbery that goes on in this industry is just ridiculous.
“I would’ve got a Barbie mask to put on to cover the nose. Anyway, it don’t matter.
“I’ll look at the pictures and look how s**t people look.”
The premiere was ahead of the release this Friday 21st July.
It comes after Katie told fans the “real reason” she had a nose job – and why she didn’t tell her mum.
The mum-of-five flew to Belgium for surgery last month, dodging a “telling off” from her mum by telling her via text seconds before going under anaesthetic.
Speaking to to her sister Sophie on The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie detailed the stomach-churning details of her nose job.
“The real reason why I did it is because when I went to Turkey a couple of years ago and there was a new thing called ‘lip lift’, explained Katie.
“It’s like a bull horn lift, where they cut under your nose and it lifts your lips.
“But they bodged it up. The scar was bad and he nipped it.
“I wanted it re-done because I thought it made my nose wonky.
“So I actually had it broken. I’ve never had it broken before. I don’t know what it looks like and I don’t know what to expect. I just said, ‘make my nose look pretty’.”
Katie‘s recovery wasn’t straight forward, however.
She choked on the gauze in her nose, which had gone down the back of her throat.
Katie had to pull it out and worried she had “ruined” her new nose.
“I kept coughing thinking, ‘what is stuck in my throat?’
“I looked in the mirror and it was a bit of string. I pulled it and it was the gauze coming out of the back of my throat.
“I was like, ‘I’m choking, what can I do? I’m not allowed to take it out.’
“I grabbed it and pulled it and it looked like a cloth of snot. So then I took the other one out, thinking, ‘Have I ruined my nose now?’
“I called the surgeon and he said you’ll be alright, just don’t blow your nose or try to wash it because it’s all raw.
“So I can now breathe better, finally smell and taste food, and I can sleep without waking up with a dry mouth.
“But I’ve healed really well. I thought I’d have black eyes and everything.”
