POP star and ice dancing queen, Jessica Taylor, is eyeing up budding models in Southampton and Totton in a nationwide search for this year’s Spectacle Wearer of the Year.
The former Liberty X singer, who is married to England and Hampshire cricketer Kevin Pietersen, is fronting the contest to find ordinary people who look extraordinary in their glasses. Anti-bullying charity, Kidscape, will get £1 for every entry.
The 28-year-old, 5ft 8in specs kitten, who started wearing glasses when she was 19, says her hubby is bowled over when he sees her in her glasses.
Jessica said: “I had absolutely no concerns about starting to wear glasses – I haven’t even tried contact lenses because I love wearing my specs so much. Kevin thinks I look really sexy when I wear them and I have a pair to match practically every outfit.”
The Southampton winner of the Specsavers competition will represent the Meridian West region in national finals in October.
The overall winner will receive a year’s modelling contract and a holiday for two in Barbados.
Entries can be made at any Specsavers store or by visiting specsavers.co.uk/competition. The closing date is June 30.
