About this episode
Are you ready for the most erotic anecdote about Peter Andre you've ever heard? Well, get ready, because we have Claire Richards on the podcast!
She tells us all about her life in Steps, and what it's like to become a pop star at the age of 19, earning a whopping £50 a week. We ask if there are any Steps songs she secretly hates singing, and whether their costumes smell as bad as ours. Plus, Claire tells us about the moment when H came out to her, and what crisps she was eating at the time.
There's a bit of serious chat about what it's like to have your weight discussed so publicly, and what Claire thinks of the body positivity movement. Then it's back to silliness as we play Snog, Marry, Avoid - Smash Hits Poll Winners' Party Edition!
Claire is on tour with Steps this summer - follow @clairerichardsofficial and @officialsteps for info.
