Solomon says sexism means male stars still get paid more
STACEY Solomon admits it can be a struggle as a strong woman in the entertainment business - but it makes it easier when people underestimate her.
The TV star and businesswoman has amassed a multi-million-pound fortune and is admired by fans for her down-to-earth attitude.
And she says defying expectations is one of the secrets of her success.
Stacey said: "I come from Dagenham and I've got the accent. I didn't have a private education.
"I'm blonde. I'm of a happy disposition most of the time. Those characteristics label me as stupid.
"It used to make me angry but now I use it to my advantage. If I'm underestimated I can only impress people.
"The truth is that most of the time I'm just winging it and faking it till I make it."
