  • Kellie Maloney Reveals Tom Selleck Is Her Perfect Man

    Kellie Maloney former Celebrity Big Brother star and boxing promoter has revealed that she is a heterosexual woman in an interview.

     

    Speaking with the Daily Star, the 62-year-old former boxing promoter said that she was a “heterosexual woman” after her gender reassignment surgery.

    She said,

    Of course it’s difficult. Do I fancy men or women or what?

    “So, look, I am a heterosexual woman. There. I’ve said it and that’s the first time I have said it to anyone: I am a heterosexual woman. That’s the final step isn’t it?”

    Speaking about her dream man Maloney said,

    “I find Tom Selleck attractive. If I had to choose a man he would be my ideal. He’s very handsome.”

  • Kellie Maloney wants out of Celebrity Big Bro

    Kellie Maloney has admitted to some of her friend housemates that she wants out of the Celebrity Big Brother to ‘face it’.

    Kellie talks to James and George about her disagreement with Audley. Kellie said she asked to leave again last night and James asks her why she would do that. Kellie says that she should have been told that Audley had a ‘phobia about trans-people.’ James says: ‘I don’t think that is the case babe.’ Kellie says: ‘I was Audley’s biggest enemy in the outside world; I set out to bring him down totally in boxing. Audley tolerates me, he doesn’t accept me.’

    In a conversation in tonight’s episode, Kellie talks to Dee, saying that she wants to go and doesn’t see the benefit of staying and that she wants to ‘go outside and face it.’

    Later on, whilst with Edele, she has the same conversation, but Edele tells her that one purpose of Kellie staying is to raise awareness and Kellie says: ‘I’ve done that.’ Lauren comes over and says that Kellie is being silly and weak and that she is stronger than that. Audley says goodnight to Kellie and they have another hug.

    Big Brother continues tonight at 9:00PM on Channel 5

  • Kellie Maloney’s mum think she wears too much make up

    Trans Celebrity Big Brother contestant Kellie Maloney has revealed what her mother said when she first saw her as Kellie.

    Kellie Maloney, who came out as trans recently, has spoken to George Gilbey in the Big Brother house about what her mother thought about her transition.

    George and Kellie were chatting by the pool when George asked how Maloney’s mum took the news and Kellie admits she was ‘fantastic’ and said, ‘You’re still my child, no matter what you want to do’, George replied that it’s was a ‘lovely’ story and Kellie then described the first time she met her mum as Kellie and she said, ‘I think dear, you’re wearing too much make up!’

    Earlier in the week, during a conversation with Bad Girls’ actress Claire King, Kellie admitted that thinks she will be a heterosexual male mentally.

  • Celebrity Big Brother Kellie Maloney still feels like a straight man mentally

    Kellie Maloney, who recently came out as a trans woman has been opening up about her transition.

    In a conversation with Claire King today on Channel 5’s Celebrity Big Brother, Kellie Maloney, says that she still thinks she will be a heterosexual male mentally but isn’t sure if having a relationship with a woman would make her a lesbian.

    Famously in the Mayoral election race in 2004, Maloney, a UKIP candidate at the time, garnered much criticism from the LGBT community by saying, there were “too many gays” in Camden.

    Maloney, who was living as a man at the time, tried to justify these remarks telling the BBC, ‘I don’t want to campaign around gays… I don’t think they do a lot for society… what I have a problem with is them openly flaunting their sexuality.’

    Kellie says that her decision to transition was about gender identity and not about sexual orientation and thinks that she will probably live the rest of her life without a partner.

    Kellie also talks to Edele about her forthcoming operations.

    Kellie says she needs to have her boobs done and more work on her face before the final operation at the end of the year. Kellie says, ‘Then there will be no stopping me.’

  • Celeb BB’s Kellie and Dee bond

    Pairings come in the unlikeliest places, but Deirdre Kelly and Kellie Maloney have become fast friends on the new series of Celebrity Big Brother.

    It’s the first full day in the Celebrity Big Brother house and Kellie and Dee are bonding. Kellie asks Dee if being on TV has changed her life and Dee says yes, some good ways and some negative. Kellie responds that she can’t believe the reception she got coming into the Celebrity Big Brother house, she tells Dee that for most of her life she wanted to beat her gender issues.

    Dee asks her if she feels like she has won. Kellie replies that she feels she has won and lost at the same time. Kellie adds, ‘Frank wasn’t a bad person.’ She also says that she has tried to make her children understand that she is always going to be their dad, just their dad in a frock.

    In October 2013, Kellie, known then as Frank, made the decision to retire from boxing explaining that he had ‘fallen out of love’ with the sport. However, Kellie now cites her transition as the real reason. Kellie explained how she has felt trapped in the wrong body since she was a child. She is now a year into the transition period and is learning to live life as a woman – a life she kept a secret due to the macho world she lived in as a boxing promoter.

    Twice-married and parent of three daughters, she wanted the transition to be private to protect her family and to build up the confidence to reveal her new identity. She planned to reveal her new life in a book once she had fully transitioned, however, she was exposed by a journalist and made the decision to go public with her transition

    During the mayoral election in London, 2004, Maloney, ran as the UKIP candidate, was criticised for comments made against the LGBT community after it emerged that Maloney failed to campaign in Camden because there wer “too many gays”.

    Maloney tried to justify these remarks telling the BBC, ‘I don’t want to campaign around gays…I don’t think they do a lot for society…what I have a problem with is them openly flaunting their sexuality.’
