David Gandy: I would never agree to CBB

David Gandy "would never had agreed" to go on 'Celebrity Big Brother'.

The 31-year-old model - who was rumoured to be entering the infamous house when the fly-on-the wall series re-launched on Channel 5 last Thursday - admitted he had no intention of appearing on the show, and has "no idea" who fellow model contestant Bobby Sabel even is.

Speaking in the Virgin Media Louder Lounge at V Festival in Chelmsford, Essex, on Saturday (20.08.11), he exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I was never going to be in it. People saw that there was a male model and automatically assumed it would be me, but I would never have agreed to do that.

"I'm not going to lie, I have no idea who that Bobby guy even is!"

Despite not being keen to appear on 'Celebrity Big Brother', David and his girlfriend, The Saturdays' Mollie King, are reportedly being lined up to feature on 'I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here' when it returns to screens later this year.

An insider told the Daily Star newspaper: "These two certainly would make the jungle a lot more attractive. David has been voted one of the best dressed men in Britain and women swoon over him. And Mollie is used to looking glam and has the fellas panting.

"So it will be a real change for them to get down, dirty and sweaty in the Aussie bush. They're very tempted."
