Kelly Brook has hit out at her former boss (albeit for a rather brief amount of time) Simon Cowell over her firing from Britain's Got Talent.

The model was hired as a fourth judge on the show back in 2009, alongside Simon, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan. However, she was axed after filming just a few days of auditions.

Speaking to FHM magazine, where Kelly also stripped off for a sexy new photoshoot, Kelly admitted she is not on good terms with the music mogul.

On what happened on the show, she said: “I don’t know! I still don’t know. I saw Simon Cowell once afterwards. I caught his eye and I thought ‘I’m not going to say hello to him, I can’t be bothered’ and then he kind of just sulked over and sat next to me.

"Then all of the photographers came and then they took a picture as if we were friends. We’re not friends. I didn’t know him before and I’ll probably never meet him again. I don’t understand why he sat next to me for a photo opportunity. I don’t know. It was weird. They’re all weird."

She added: "I’ve been in the business for 15 years. I turn up and I do my job. I’m professional and if I’m not comfortable I’m honest, I’m really straight forward. If it was editing, if it was bad, they could have edited it to make me look good.

“They said ‘be yourself’, and I was, and then they fired me!”

Kelly's revelation paints an entirely different story to the one Simon portrayed in the aftermath.

Simon told The Sun at the time that she had been "understanding" and was planning to meet up with her in LA.

"Kelly was absolutely incredible about the whole thing, really understanding. She didn't lash out or play the victim.

"We've spoken since and we're planning to meet up in LA. She's a really nice girl."

The full interview with Kelly appears in this month's FHM magazine, on sale now.
