Katie Price at The Oxford Union

 

The UK's best known self-made celeb,

Katie Price, 33, has addressed

The Oxford Union, a very traditional

debating assembly of some of the brightest

intellects, mainly from the prestigious

Oxford University.

 

Katie is the latest celebrity to face

the 400 student crowd!! The Pricey's

speech went on for about 10 minutes,

then she faced a Questions and Answers

session!

 

When asked about her old relationships

to Peter Andre and Alex Reid.

Katie reportedly said you'll

have to invite Pete next time!

 

As for Alex Reid, Katie holds no

grudges. Although Katie is still

''married'' to Alex, but she reportedly

said that when the divorce comes through-

Alex has Katie's blessing to marry

his girlfriend, Chantelle Houghton,

Katie hopes they're happy.

 

Katie brought her own witty

sense of humour to proceedings,

it's reported she told the crowd,

I wouldn't like to play trivial pursuit

with you guys!

 

It's reported the Reality TV star

told the undergraduate students that

there's no excuse not to work

at something!

 

Over the years the Oxford Union has invited

a diverse range of speakers,

from physicist, Stephen Hawking to

Glamour Model/Actress, Pamela Anderson.

 

There's something about The Pricey-

some might say Katie Price is a

phenomenon of the tabloid world

in which we live!

 

There's nothing The Pricey can't do!
