Gemma Collins has ditched plans to sell her sex tape for £1million after being urged against the move by Piers Morgan.
The TOWIE legend confessed to making an X-rated tape with a “mystery man” while being interviewed by the Good Morning Britain host on his show Life Stories, which is set to air later this week, and has already thought about she could make money from it if she “goes skint”.
Gemma teased that she could one day “do a Kim Kardashian” but has now changed her mind after Piers’ advice and insisted she’ll delete the video instead.
Discussing the racy clip, Gemma revealed, “Well course, I might go skint one day, and I’ve gotta do a Kim K. Do you know what? Sex sells.
“It’s probably about 20 minutes long, but we’ve all done it with our partners, you know. I’m normal.”
She added, “I’d like to set up a pay-to-view line where they ring in, I take £1.50 on the phone call and then £3 or a fiver to watch the thing, so I’d be cashing in myself but I don’t know if that’s possible.”

1 of 12When Gemma paraded through the Big Brother garden with a Shetland pony
When the Celebrity Big Brother stars were asked what one-off luxury they would like to be treated to in the isolated house, what did Gemma ask for? Contact with her family? Nope. A pamper treatment? Not quite... No, the GC asked for none other than a Shetland pony - which she proceeded to dance with around the garden. While stroking the pony, Gemma exclaimed "I want pink ones with glitter in their hair".

5 of 12When she spent 72 hours in the jungle
Gemma famously lasted just 72 hours in the I'm a Celebrity jungle, but she still managed to make the nation laugh with her outrageous behaviour. The TOWIE star even insisted "People that murdered get treated better than this, and thats the truth. Even a murderer gets fed three times a day."
6 of 12Gemma's infamous candy scene
Ah, the early days of Gemma and Arg's relationship. The GC was filmed in a Marbella special, when she famously told on/off boyfriend Arg "Don't ever disrespect a girl like that again. Take a good look at this, you ain't ever gonna get this candy.", before dropping her throw and strutting away in a black swimsuit.
7 of 12Gemma's friendship with Kim K's BFF
Gemma made pals with no other than Kim K's best-friend, Jonathan Cheban in Big Brother, where she told him "By the time you're finished with me, I'm gonna be a Gem-dashian." The stars have been friends ever since and Jonathan even flies over to the UK to visit Gemma, where the pair go on fancy shopping trips to Harrods together.
8 of 12When she was a total diva in an interview
Anyone else still cringe when they remember that painfully awkward chat between Gemma and an interviewer who hadn't read her book? The GC had a major diva-meltdown when she found out the journalist hadn't been seen a copy before holding the interview, thus ending the call, "Darling, don't worry, we're going to get the book publishers to send everyone doing an interview the book. Thank you, bye!"

11 of 12Basically, her entire time in the CBB house
Other hilarious moments from Gemma's stint in the Big Brother house included yelling at producers, "I don't need the money! I've got money!". She also got upset when Big Brother failed to provide professional blow-dries: "This is very expensive hair and its all frazzled, because you've only got straighteners in here, you haven't got heated rollers. So, you can pay for me to have a new set of extensions. Straighteners are what weirdos use on their hair."
12 of 12And when she fell down the trap door at the Teen Choice Awards
Talking of Gemma's tumbles - how could anyone forget her iconic fall down the trap door at the BBC1 Radio Teen Choice Awards?
After Piers warned that selling her sex tape could be taking her career in the wrong direction and questioned whether “everything” she did was for sale, Gemma rethought her decision.
The GC said, “I’m not prepared to do it. I’d rather go and work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year before I’d have to resort to that.
“I’m gonna go home and delete it after you’ve given me the riot act about it.”

Look! More news!
Charlotte Crosby reveals secret 'feud' with Megan Barton-Hanson
Gemma also discusses her on/off relationship with James ‘Arg’ Argent on the show after a source close to the reality star revealed how she stepped in to help him with his weight loss battle amid his plans to undergo gastric surgery.
“Gem is terrified of losing anyone close to her right now. With her father so unwell [he contracted COVID], then Arg saying he could die because of his weight, it has pushed her over the edge,” they told heat.
“Gem immediately reached out to Mark Wright and a few other TOWIE friends of Arg, as well as his family, to see what they can do about the situation. She will always love Arg and wants to help him as much as she can, even though they’ve had such a rocky relationship and are no longer officially together.”
