Katie Price reignites singing career with festival gig alongside Cheryl

Katie Price is giving her singing career another go and has booked a big festival gig alongside the likes of Cheryl.

The former glamour model, 41, will perform at Mighty Hoopla festival this summer, which also has rapper Eve and singer La Roux on the line-up.

Might Hoopla, which is held at London's Brockwell Park and is attended by 15,000 people, will be one of the first major festivals to go ahead in the UK since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.

Festival bosses have taken the decision to go ahead with the gig "following vaccine roll-out timing reviews and rapid testing" will ensure "Mighty Hoopla the way it should be – all singing, all dancing".

NHS workers have been offered free tickets "to say a heartfelt thanks for their brave, incredible efforts during this crisis and all year around".

It's a huge gig for Katie, who has attempted to start a singing career on numerous occasions.

She famously sung A Whole New World with her first husband Peter Andre.

Then in 2019 she released another single that failed to do well.

She recently told FUBAR Radio: "Obviously I muck about on Instagram. And when I say I want to be on The Masked Singer, I want to be on The Voice, then everyone takes the mickey out of me saying, 'oh shut up Kate. You really think you can sing?'

"I'm like, 'yeah, I can actually'. And they're like, 'well, I dunno what you hear.'

"I've now bought myself a studio for YouTube.

"So I'm going to do my like karaoke versions, acoustic versions of songs I want to do."

She added: "I'm not giving up. I'm going to do it… If you don't want to hear it, don't tap on and listen!"
