Quote:

Former Big Brother star Michelle Bass has been rocked by a cancer scare, it was revealed today.

The 28-year-old glamour model, who appeared in the fifth series in 2004, has been told that she has pre-cancerous cells on the lining of her cervix.

Bass will undergo surgery to remove the cells tomorrow. Doctors also hope to establish whether the abnormalities have spread.

"I'm scared but I know that I'm in good hands and I just hope this has been caught in time," Bass told the Sunday Mirror.

Bass has had regular smear tests since abnormalities were first discovered in a routine examination one year ago. Her latest test result came through this week.

She added: "Jade [Goody]'s case has just proved how quickly something like this can escalate. I would urge anyone in this situation to seek treatment and not try to hide from the situation.

"I wasn't in the same Big Brother series as Jade but we have met several times as we had the same agent. I was shocked when I heard about her diagnosis."

Goody is believed to have just days left to live. She was first diagnosed with cervical cancer in August last year.
