Martin Amis, one of Britain’s most celebrated authors has made a blistering attack on Katie Price.
He told the literary Hay Festival in London this week: ‘She has no waist… an interesting face… but all we are really worshipping is two bags of silicone.’
He also accused Price of hypocrisy, citing her frequently repeated claim that she hates kiss and tell stories. ’But the whole thing is a kiss and tell!’ he fumed.
Amis, the author of books such as The Rachel Papers, Money and London Fields, is angry that a former glamour model turned author outsells Britain’s most respected novelists.
Price’s latest novel Sapphire is still riding high in the bestsellers list, three months after publication, while her first novel outsold the entire Booker prize shortlist.
