Konnie Huq Gets Ready To Bounce

Konnie Huq
Konnie Huq hopes to bounce to a world record! She is replacing Fearne Cotton on Sky 1's Guinness World Records and her first challenge will be to try and set a new record for bouncing on a trampoline course. The mind boggles.

Konnie said, "I've been training to get fit and it's been pure hell. I'm not particularly fit, I never go to the gym so trying to break the record for the number of bounces on the world's biggest trampoline course will be pretty hard work. I had to trampoline for my Blue Peter audition, but this is a lot tougher."

Good luck Konnie.

Konnie Huq Wins An Award

Konnie Huq and James Nesbitt
Konnie Huq has won an award. Okay, not a very good one but it's still an award. She won a Morgan Award. "A what?" you may ask. It's something to do with Piers Morgan and, as he's very full of himself, he gave the trophy his name.

The awards are all about getting back at celebs who slap themselves on the back when going to more notable award occasions. So what did Konnie win hers for?

Not too sure if it's very clear but this is what Piers said, "My first Morgan goes to someone who told me just before she left Blue Peter, 'I can’t think how to do it with a bang. Richard Bacon did drugs, Peter Duncan did porn, Janet Ellis did unmarried pregnancy, I’m left with bestiality, but I think that might be a bit strong for Blue Peter…'"

Konnie Huq's award was titled PUTTING THE BLUE INTO BLUE PETER.

On receiveing the Morgan Award Konnie uttered, "I have never won anything in my life. So to be winning the best of the best tonight is a great honour. I’m speechless, thank you."

I guess you had to be there!

The Purple Konnie Huq Sweetie Wasn't Stolen

My favourite Quality Street chocolate is always the one with the purple wrapper - it's hazelnut and soft caramel. I got to thinking about this when I saw this photo of Konnie Huq and her purple party frock.

And while thinking about sweets Konnie has categorically denied that she ever stole sweets from Woolworths.

It seems that the Mirror reported Konnie as saying that in the past she had taken pick'n'mix sweeties from Woolies without paying. Dear old Valerie Singleton got a bit hot under the collar about this and criticised her for condoning theft.

Konie was misquoted in the original Mirror article. To make things clear she said, "I want to set the record straight. I probably said I love Woolies pick 'n' mix, I bet many a child can remember stealing sweets from there."

Sorted! Purple ones are always the best.

Konnie Huq Would Never Say Never

Konnie Huq has given an interview to the Mirror and was asked if she ever felt like doing something drastic to shed her goody-goody image. Konnie answered:

"If I wore a low-cut dress or showed my cleavage or did lad’s mags, people would make such a big deal. That has stopped me from doing it, but I would if it felt right. Maybe I could do some indie film and get my kit off. I’d never say never."

She's obviously quite domesticated though and this was the last thing she did in that direction:

"I sewed on a button. That sounds really crap, doesn’t it? But it was a complicated button …"

Enough said! Full interview here.

Konnie Huq: High Heels, Stockings And Ice Cream

Konnie Huq Stockings, High Heels and Ice Cream
Konnie Huq loves eating ice cream wearing her high heels and stockings!

Ice cream, it seems, is one of her simple pleasures. Konnie said, "There's nothing better than being at home eating Ben & Jerry's chocolate ice cream on the sofa. I'm a big chocolate fan too, I like chilling out with comfort food. It's great when you can kick back and watch TV."

Okay, so I lied about the stockings and high heels!

Konnie Huq's Sister Rupa Huq

Konnie Huq With Sister Rupa Huq
It seems that Konnie Huq's sister Rupa Huq is an aspiring Labout Member of Parliament. So much so that she has been giving advice on how to belittle the Conservative leader David Cameron.

She reckons the easiest is to say that he's like Tony Blair!

Rupa enlarged on this by saying, "Cameron tries to present himself as an everyman who takes simple family holidays in Cornwall - while enjoying rather more exclusive jaunts on the sly."

Is Konnie Huq A Possible For GMTV

As you may have read Fiona Phillips is leaving GMTV so that means a replacement is required.

One of the names bandied about as a possible is none other than Konnie Huq.

But there are also a few other names in the mix as well including Michelle Morrison GMTV's news reporter, GMTV's Tiffany Royce, Myleene Klass and Holly Willoughby.

As for GMTV they are playing it cool, "Fiona's only just made her announcement and has several months to go before she leaves. We've got some time to be looking at this and won't be rushing in to decisions."

So can you see Konnie on the sofa early mornings? Personally I doubt it.

Konnie Huq's Dilemma: A Brief History Of Time Or Heat Magazine?

In an interview with the Guardian Konnie Huq tells about her reading habits:

"I've been trying to read Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time but it's hard to find the time to make myself concentrate properly. I read Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything so thought I'd try Hawking's book to remind myself of my background in science - I did physics, chemistry and maths A-levels.

I'm trying to start reading books that you gain knowledge from in order to challenge myself more. As a rule, I tend to read easy reading/populist-type books, but I don't feel like I'm learning enough. That said, I'm looking forward to reading Mark Frith's book about his time as the editor of Heat magazine."

So should she read A Brief History Of Timeor all about celebs in Heat Magazine? It must be a difficult decision for Konnie!

Konnie Huq Defends Chantelle

Konnie Huq has been defending the likes of Chantelle Hayes in Celebs on Sunday magazine. Konnie said,

"When people talk of a 'real career' you think lawyer or teacher. But not everyone wants to do that. So in a way, if your option is stacking shelves or being Chantelle, wouldn’t you take your opportunities when you could? Much in life depends on what you would have done anyway. And as celebrity culture is so skewed towards women’s fashion and appearance, people focus more on these girls. So the blokes from Big Brother fade into oblivion."

And she is right, of course, it's the one opportunity that the likes of Chantelle have to forge some sort of career - and make money. They use their '15 minutes of fame' to full advantage. As for Konnie, she'll be around for much longer.

A 'Poem' For Konnie Huq

Konnie Huq Photo
Derek Batey, who seemingly used to present the television game show Mr & Mrs had written a 'poem' about Konnie Huq:

The Olympic torch was carried in the hand of Konnie Huq,
pro-Tibetans failed to seize it - Konnie said, 'What luck';
It was all seen on the telly - it's added to my fame;
And now I'm Mandrake's mascot - good flame, good game, good name.

Think I've heard better!
