Michelle has eye on Ant

He's just managed to escape one obsessive stalker in the form of camp crimper Craig, but now Big Brother winner Anthony Hutton might have an even bigger battle on his hands.



Because BB5 beauty Michelle Bass, who famously launched a relentless pursuit of "Chicken" Stu Wilson on last year's show, can't wait to get her claws into him.

Speaking exclusively to Angel Eyes, the former Gosforth High pupil, who is looking svelte and toned after a recent image makeover, said she couldn't wait to meet Consett-born Ant.

She said: "He's a very good-looking lad and always well-groomed. I think he'll have a lot of female attention but if he asked me out I'd definitely consider it.

"Of course, we'd have to go out in Newcastle. We'd go for a few drinks along the Quayside and then go on to a club. That would be a cool idea."

Everyone knows that gentlemen prefer blondes (we don't know where this leaves Anthony, mind) but raven-haired Michelle is undeterred.

"I'm dying my hair," she said. "I'm going to go a lot lighter for a bit of a new look."

Anthony could be just the tonic for Michelle, who is currently nursing a broken heart after splitting with the aforementioned Stuart.

The pair broke up earlier this month reportedly after a string of arguments regarding their future together. But Michelle, who is living in St Albans with ex-housemate Emma, isn't one for despondency.

She is determined to carve out a career in the music business and has used the pain of the break-up to inspire what she hopes will be her debut single.

"It's called Hate You, so it's very appropriate," she said. "It's very poppy, very like Charlotte Church's Crazy Chick."

But Michelle was quick to dispel rumours she's about to appear on the X Factor, which starts on ITV1 this weekend.

"I wish it was true, but it's not," she said. "I didn't think I'd be allowed to audition but I might go for it next time round. Over the years I've auditioned for Pop Idol, Popstars and Fame Academy twice, so I know what to expect."

And the Dinnington lass had some words of wisdom for Anthony as he adjusts to life outside the Big Brother house. She said: "Some people were very negative about me when I came out and I wasn't prepared for that at all so it was a shock. If Anthony experiences anything like that, he should keep his head held high and ignore it. Don't give them a reaction because that's exactly what they're looking for.

"He'll be contracted up to his eyeballs so he'll probably start to feel like he's signed his life away. I know I did.

"My contracts are coming to an end now and I feel so free. It's like I've got my life back and I can do the things I want to again.

"So long as he keeps level-headed and doesn't get carried away thinking he's going to be a superstar, I think he'll do well."
