Celebrity Big Brother 2009 - La Toya Jackson is too clever for Lucy Pinder
Monday, 5 January 2009
La Toya Jackson might struggle to relate to page 3 model Lucy Pinder during her time in the Celebrity Big Brother 2009 house.
It seems like La Toya might be cleverer than she looks.
La Toya originally wanted to study business law as La Toya felt it was necessary for the family to have someone with a legal background.

She also wanted to work in Macdonalds, be a nurse and a police
officer. But her father had other ideas and as soon as Latoya was
introduced to the stage at 16 she knew that was right for her.
Having made a name in music, La Toya ventured into acting and modelling. In 1989 she posed for Playboy magazine selling 8 million
copies which became the then best selling issue ever.
La Toya also wrote a book about growing up as a member of the Jackson clan, has filed for bankruptcy and in 1992 became the highest paid performer at the world famous Moulin Rouge, Paris, after signing a multi-million dollar deal.
La Toya has a severe phobia of cats from a childhood memory, when a relative was attacked by a cat.
La Toya would describe herself as "a red bottle of wine that ages gracefully, the older it is, the better it gets". She has a dog called 'Prince' and her hidden talent is decorating.
La Toya likes 50 Cent. Her guiltiest pleasure is an apple tart or vanilla yoghurt with caramel and nuts but she dislikes any white food e.g. mash potato and rice. She cannot live without bottled water, clean sheets, paper towels and tissues.
Latoya hopes being in Celebrity Big Brother will make her more outgoing, and if the house is like the Jackson family, it will be the easiest thing in the world.
La Toya says: "The CBB experience is going to be great because I still don't know the world. I have been sheltered, this is going to be great."
