58 Nuts


Modeling
At sixteen years of age, Hazell left school to work as a hairdresser. Her colleagues persuaded her to try her luck at modelling (she later quit hairdressing)[11] and she enrolled at Lewisham College to start a City & Guilds in fashion, but was not at the college for very long.[5] At seventeen, she competed in The Daily Star's "Search for a Beach Babe" contest and won.[11] 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.[12] 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.[12]

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 until 2008, and continues to appear in The Sun at least once every two weeks.[3] She has been on the cover of The Sun's 2006 and 2007 Page 3 calendars, in addition to her own 2006 and 2007 wall calendars, the latter of which sold 30,000 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.

Hazell will be appearing in the september 2008 issue of Playboy.
