Molly Mae-Hague says she needs someone to check if any paparazzi are taking pictures of her.
The 22-year-old, who is said to be worth millions following her debut on Love Island, made the comments in that infamous podcast.
During Steven Bartlett's The Diary Of A CEO, Molly caused outrage by her 'tone deaf' comments about fame and wealth.
But she also said she's so famous she needs someone to go out on "pap watch".
She explained: "We're always on pap watch and if we go away on a campaigns we literally have someone that has a job to specially to look out for people taking pictures so it doesn't happen again because it was quite bad.
"There was this one time when we went to Barbados to shoot a campaign for my fake tan business and we were followed the whole trip by paparazzi, we didn't even realise!
"They were posing as like architectural photographers in front of this building and I did think at one point 'Is that guy taking pictures of me?'
"But I just thought no way he's taking pictures of the building behind me."
Last week, the creative director of Pretty Little Thing sparked a bitter backlash when footage from the podcast emerged waxing lyrical about her rise to fame in comments that most of her followers branded “tone deaf”.
The influencer purported that everyone is capable of building success if they work hard.
She argued: “You’re given one life and it’s down to you what you do with it. You can literally go in any direction.
"When I’ve spoken about that in the past I have been slammed a little bit, with people saying ‘it’s easy for you to say that because you’ve not grown up in poverty, so for you to sit there and say we all have the same 24 hours in a day is not correct.’ But, technically, what I’m saying is correct. We do.
“I’ve worked my absolute a**e off to get where I am now.”
Sadly for her, Molly's message didn't go down well with fans with many accusing the entrepreneur of never doing a hard day's work in her life.
Molly has always claimed she would have been a success without Love Island, but many fans thinks the show is the sole reason she enjoys the life she does today.
After hearing her followers' disapproval Molly issued an apology, but she may have wished she didn't.
Taking to Instagram she wrote: “I apologise to the people that have been affected negatively or misunderstood the meaning of what I said in the podcast, the intentions of the podcast were only ever to tell my story and inspire from my own experience.”
However fans weren't happy with the offering, with one person writing on Twitter : "So Molly-Mae’s apology is 'sorry if you misunderstood me'?"
A second commented: "I see that instead of taking the time to reflect on why people were so angry about what was said, Molly-Mae decides to double down and tell us all we’ve misunderstood. This is not an apology."
