Katona 'wants to talk like the Queen'

Kerry Katona has decided to start taking elocution lessons in an attempt to save her career, according to a report.

The former I'm A Celebrity... winner came up with the idea because she believes that sounding less "common" will boost her chances of securing television work, The Sun claims.

A source said: "Kerry is sick of people taking the mickey out of her for being rough.

"She thinks a voice coach will help her appear more refined. She wants to speak proper Queen's English."

Katona has reportedly been trying to get her life back on track following her cocaine scandal in the summer. Last month, she discussed plans to release an album in 2010.
