Charlotte Crosby says her daughter ‘won’t need to do reality TV – because she’s got talent AND money’
CHARLOTTE Crosby says her daughter Alba won’t have to go down the reality TV route like her.
The 33-year-old made a name for herself getting drunk on the hit TV show Geordie Shore, but says her little girl has both talent and money, so life will be very different for her.
Charlotte believes her own career would have been very different if she had grown up with more financial security and says that Alba will end up being a famous singer because of the opportunities she has.
But she insists she would never put Alba, who she shares with fiance Jake Ankers, off following in her footsteps and vows to support her in whatever she does.
She told us: “Whatever she wants to do I will be fully supportive of her. My mam really didn’t want me to do Geordie Shore and I had an issue with my mam where I didn’t want to tell her anything because I knew that she wasn’t going to understand or she was going to shout at me.
“I don’t want that with Alba, I want her to be able to talk to us about absolutely anything and everything.
“I don’t want her to ever, ever feel like she can’t talk to me. If she wanted to do that, then so be it. I did it and look where I am.”
The star, who has made millions off the back of the MTV show, continued: “But I really think in my heart of hearts that Alba is probably going to be like a popstar or singer and she won’t need to do reality TV.
“If I am honest, she will probably look down on reality TV and that is going to be quite embarrassing.
“She is going to have talent beyond compare. If my mum and dad had money, we didn’t have any money when I was younger, I would be literally be something really famous.
“I would have actually been a singer, not a massive one but if my mum and dad had money and had put me into lessons and had explored that.
“Alba has got talent beyond compare. She is amazing, she is beautiful. I have got money so you best believe she is going to have so many skills, she is going to be a triple threat. Adele better watch out.
“Alba is going to be so much better than me.”
Despite Charlotte downplaying her talents, she is in fact a brilliant singer – a new skill she has recently unearthed.
The reality TV favourite was picked to be the voice behind Paramount+ UK’s festive jingle for their Christmas advert, following her success on The Masked Singer Australia.
Charlotte admitted she thought it was a wind up when she first got the call, but embraced every second of it.
She said: “It’s just a bit of fun and it’s just a little jingle. I don’t think I was singing at my full capability. If I was singing a proper song, a proper vocal I think I would impress people a bit more.
“I had so much fun doing it. That is the first time I have ever been in a recording studio, it was like all of my dreams come true.”
