She seems desperate to stay in the spotlight and now Josie Cunningham has gone a step too far by selling tickets for £10,000 for 'fans' to see her GIVE BIRTH.
We are just gob-smacked. Why anyone would want to do this, or pay for a ticket, is beyond us. It's just too bizarre.
The wannabe glamour model, who first hit the headlines after having a £4,800 boob job on the NHS, was left annoyed when a deal to sell DVDs of her labour with a pound shop fell through.
Josie, whose baby boy is due in October, told Closer magazine: "I was gutted when the DVD deal was pulled - I was set to make thousands and wanted to share the precious experience. I realised the next best thing would be to sell tickets of me giving birth at home.
"I've had a bit of interest already. I'm selling two tickets at £5k each and two at £10k, which are VIP. All tickets will include travel and accommodation and the pricer ones will entitle the ticket holder to film the birth and take photos. I'll use the money to pay back the NHS for my surgery and will spend the rest on my kids."
The fame-hungry brunette originally planned to abort her unborn baby because she thought it would ruin her chances of going into the Big Brother house, but she later changed her mind and decided to keep it.
Incredibly, Josie, 23, already has a 'super fan' (yes, there actually is one) who has bought a ticket to this bizarre event.
Paul Mills-Ash, 29, said: "I've followed Josie's career since she first came into the public eye. I'm using my savings to buy a £5k ticket. It's a lot of money but it's worth it. It'll be great to say I was at the birth in years to come."
Josie also took to Twitter to tell her 26,000 followers about her plans, posting: "In today's CloserOnline, I reveal my plans to share one of life's most precious moments - I'm selling tickets to my child birth."
We think we'll sit this one out and we're not sure her child will be pleased when they come across the story on Google in ten years’ time.
