Kelly Brook: 'I had fantastic time on BGT'

Kelly Brook has admitted that she had a "fantastic time" during her brief stint on Britain's Got Talent.

The television presenter and actress hit the headlines earlier this year after she was hired to judge the reality show only to be axed six days later.

Speaking to Red, she said: "So it didn't work out. I look at it like this, I sat next to Simon Cowell. I judged a few people, it was great.

"I had a fantastic time and, yes, I would have loved to be on it more. But where one door closes, another one opens. After Britain's Got Talent, I went on holiday to LA and got approached outside a restaurant to act in [Piranha 3D].

"If I'd still been doing Britain's Got Talent, I wouldn't be doing the film. You have to be positive about life."

She added: "After Britain's Got Talent, I wrote a letter - all my feelings about the whole thing - and then threw it away. You have to get it out and I find it really helps. It helps your brain process it."

Piranha 3D is scheduled for release next year.
