TOWIE star Gemma Collins aka 'The GC' has admitted that she lied about having a sex tape.

In the past the reality star had said that she had a sex tape and last week, during her interview on Pier Morgan's Life Stories, she joked that she could "do a Kim Kardashian" and sell her "20 minute" sex tape if she went "skint" one day.

Although she then backtracked and 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.”

However in a clip - that will air on TV next week from the TV show Unforgivable - Gemma has admitted that the sex tape doesn't actually exist.

After the host of the show Mel Giedroyc asked Gemma, "Have you been telling fibs in interviews my friend?"

The GC finally confessed all, "So basically, I said in an interview once, thinking it was funny, that I’d done a sex tape like Kim K. Didn’t think any more of it.

"Next thing, I’m being interviewed by Piers Morgan on Life Stories and he leads me in it."

When 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".

When Gemma slipped during her Dancing on Ice routine

The 2019 series of Dancing on Ice is the gift that keeps on giving and poor old Gemma had viewers glued to their screens when she tripped over her foot and skidded across the ice. Ouch. The TOWIE queen soon picked herself up and styled through her ice-skating miss-hap. Jason Gardiner reportedly suggested that Gemma's fall was karma for her diva tantrum the week before.

When she spent 72 hours in the jungle

Gemma'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.

When 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!"

Basically, 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."

"I'm never going to live it down. There is no sex tape. It's one big god awful lie."
