‘I pole danced for Simon Cowell’ says Zoe Ball

Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball has confessed that she once performed a raunchy pole dance in front of X Factor boss Simon Cowell.

The 38-year old told Celebs on Sunday that she was partying at Stringfellows when she decided to take to the stage to strut her stuff.

She explained: “My mate and I got a bit drunk – in my former life – and ended up there trying to pole dance.

“This man came up to us and said, “Um, can you get down please? But before you do, can this man take your picture?”

“It was Peter Stringfellow and he was sat at a table with Simon and loads of really big bods from TV.”

Zoe also revealed that Cowell sent over a bottle of champagne but she was unsure whether this was because he liked her dancing.

She confessed: “We said hello, then a few minutes later Simon sent a bottle of champagne over to us.”

“I think it was to stop me from dancing ever again, rather than congratulate me.”
