Template:Female adult bio

Keeley Rebecca M. Hazell (born 18 September 1986)[1] is an English Page 3 Girl and glamour model.

Personal life

Early life

Hazell was born in Lewisham, London, England,[1] grew up in Grove Park,[2] and attended the Ravensbourne School in Bromley.[1] Her mother, Amber, is a dinner lady and her father, Roy, is a window fitter; they separated when she was thirteen. She has an older sister, Roxanne, and a younger sister, Georgia.[citation needed]

As a teenager, Hazell was a frequent truant and stayed out late on school nights drinking. She confesses to having only taken five GCSE examinations due to being ejected from several of them; however, she did very well in Mathematics and English.[citation needed]

Adult life

As of November 2006, Hazell lived in an apartment in the London Docklands.[3]

In January 2006, Hazell made headlines when Chelsea F.C. football player Joe Cole was beaten up at a party held at her Grove Park house.[4] She spoke to The Sun in March, denying rumours surrounding the incident.[5]

Sex tape

In early January 2007, a sex tape of Hazell and ex-boyfriend Healing student Wolfman (not real name) was released on the internet. The video was shot whilst the couple were on holiday in Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain during the previous year, on or about 30 May 2006.[6]

Following the tape's leak, Hazell was reported to have been very upset, and she called the police in an attempt to find out who leaked the tape.[7] She also "obtained an injunction on grounds of privacy preventing any further publication or promotion of the video"[6] though the video is still widely available on the Internet.

Career

Modelling

At 16 years of age, Hazell left school to work as a hairdresser. Her work colleagues persuaded her to try her luck at modelling. At 17, she competed in The Daily Star's "Search for a Beach Babe" contest and won. Still not old enough to pose on Page 3, she went to study fashion at Lewisham College.[8] But later, a friend told her about The Sun's Page 3 Idol competition. Despite some initial uncertainty about entering the contest, she submitted some photos. She was eventually chosen the winner in December 2004. She won £10,000 worth of "sexy clothes" and "a one-year membership of the Rex cinema and bar". Three cast sculptures were made of her bust by sculptor Leigh Heppell. Two are in the Sun offices and one is in her house.[citation needed]

Another part of Hazell's Page 3 Idol win was a one-year exclusive glamour modelling contract with The Sun. She is currently being handled by Jon Fowler.[3]

Hazell regularly featured in Zoo and continues to appear in The Sun at least once every two weeks. She has been on the cover of The Sun's 2006 and 2007 Page 3 calendars, in addition to her own wall calendars, the 2007 edition selling 30,000 copies in its first few days of release.[3] In April 2008, Hazell left Zoo and signed an exclusive deal to appear in their rival magazine Nuts.[citation needed]

Other media appearances

Hazell was the face of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's Formula One 06 video game for PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, and F1 CE for PlayStation 3.[9] She is currently the face of MotorStorm: Pacific Rift for PlayStation 3.[10]

Hazell had a small role as Keeley Hazel in the full-length version of Cashback, playing "Frozen Girl in Sainsbury's". She was in talks with producers to be in a movie based on the television series Baywatch.[citation needed]

Alongside IT expert Gary Schwartz, in 2007 Hazell was the presenter of 8 episodes of Byte Me TV, an online programme that explains technology in an easy to understand way.[11]

In 2008, Hazell appeared as Keeley Hazel on the BBC Three documentary Page Three Teens.[12]

Hazell released a pop music single called "Voyeur" in 2008.[13]

Environmental and charitable work

Hazell was hailed by the Conservative Party in December 2006 as an "environmental hero" for her campaigns in The Sun, giving environmental tips such as turning lights off during sex and using digital cameras. She was named alongside the likes of David Attenborough, Prince Charles and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Tories' list.[14]

Hazell has backed a major breast cancer awareness campaign for Breakthrough Breast Cancer. The campaign called TALK TLC aims to promote Breakthrough's breast health message about the need to be aware of the signs and symptoms of breast cancer. Hazell has also signed up to take part in the Breakthrough Generations Study consisting of 100,000 women and spanning 40 years - the study aims to be the largest and most comprehensive of its kind.[15]
