Celebrity Big Brother’s Nicola T to release single with Coolio

According to The Sun newspaper, glamourpuss Page 3 girl Nicola T ( real name Nicola Tappenden) will team up with Grammy award winning rapper Coolio for her debut single, Drunk, after she exits the show

While other artists might shy away from working with a reality TV star, Coolio, who shot to fame with 1995 hit Gangsta’s paradise should have no such hang ups.

Coolio  won US reality show Celebrity Boot Camp back in 2002. He also appeared in the UK on Celebrity Big Brother last year, where he came third behind second placed TV presenter Terry Christian and winner, Ulrika Johnson. 

The single Drunk is said to be a Black Eyed peas/ Timbaland influenced number . The track was written by Jud Mahoney and will be released in March.

Nicola has laready outsripped fellow Page 3 girl who became the first celebrity to be evicted from the hosue in the 2009 series. The Croydon glamour model has laready survived eviction after being nominated alongside grime rapper Lady Sovereign.

Speaking before she joined the Channel 4 reality show, Nicola said: "I've been a fan of Coolio for years and I very feel privileged that he's agreed to team up with me for this single.

"Jud Mahoney has worked with many big-name artists such as Mario Winans, Tyrese, Liberty X, Eamon, K-CI & JoJo and Michael Jackson, so it's a huge honour that he wrote and co-sings this track with me."

She added: "I'm really excited about the single - it's credible and a fantastic, funky feel-good song!"
