RTE star Jennifer Zamparelli on her most cringe-worthy moments

Jennifer Zamparelli has told how kissing a client on the cheek and high-fiving an executive producer were among her most cringe-worthy moments.

The presenter shared her more embarrassing awkward encounters during her Newsy Bits item with Cormac Battle.

Speaking on her 2FM show today, Jen said: “I don’t what it is about me I have these awkward encounters with people.

“I remember when I went on The Apprentice and the Exec Producer, you know you are so nervous and you’re in a room full of people and there was me and the other contestants.

“It was so embarrassing I think it was why I got kicked out because I was mortified for the whole thing.

“She went to say ten of you and put her two hands up, like number ten, and I thought she was high tening me and I went yeeeaaah [and high tenned].”

And it didn’t end there, as Jennifer also talked about another embarrassing moments.

She said: “I was booked to do a voiceover by this big company, I’d worked with them before.

“The CEO came to meet me with the partner and I think it was the second time I’d met them.

“He went to shake my hand and kind of leaned in a little bit, so I leant in too and I kissed him on the cheek.

“The woman beside was looking at me like I was nuts.”
