Katie Price says it’s ‘funny’ the UK got zero points at Eurovision saying they should have picked HER to sing
KATIE Price said it was “actually funny” that the UK came dead last in Eurovision last night – and said bosses should have put her on stage.
The 42-year-old reality star was watching the annual music event at home with fiance Carl Woods.

She said in a video posted on Instagram: “That’s actually funny.
“I reckon they should put me up to Eurovision, in a black catsuit this time. I’d smash it.”
Looking at the UK’s James Newman putting a brave face on his loss, she said: “I don’t know why he’s happy – he’s lost.”
Carl Woods wasn’t entirely supportive of her bid to have another crack at Eurovision, which she last attempted in 2005.
She came runner-up after performing the song Not Just Anybody in a pink Latex catsuit but narrowly lost to Javine Hylton’s who sang Touch My Fire.
Carl told her last night: “I can’t believe there’s a geezer who’s done worse than you on this programme.”
Affronted, Katie asked him: “Do you think that’s funny?” He replied: “It’s very funny.”
Britain was the only country to not pick up a single point and came dead last in the competition last night.

Meanwhile, Italy and its act Måneskin took the title with their song Zitti E Buoni.
The Ahoy Arena in Rotterdam rang out with a mixture of boos and cheers as James received the disappointing news he hadn’t picked up a single point.
Lorraine Kelly was among the first to offer her condolences, tweeting: “Poor poor James – wasn’t the best song but absolutely not the worst.”
