OHMYGOSSIP — Professor Green was dragged into a photo booth by ‘Baywatch’ beauty Kelly Rochbach at the GQ Awards.
The ‘Read All About It’ rapper was pounced upon by the 26-year-old bombshell – who has taken on Pamela Anderson’s iconic role as lifeguard C.J. Parker in the Paramount Pictures big screen remake – at the event held at The Tate Modern in London on Tuesday night (06.09.16) evening but confessed he had no idea who the stunner was at first.
Speaking about partying with Kelly, who previously dated Leonardo DiCaprio, he told The Sun newspaper: “This really, really fit blonde woman called Kelly came up to me. I had no idea who she was but obviously I went in the photo booth with her when she asked me. Then she told me she was the new ‘Baywatch’ girl. She was lovely.”
Meanwhile, the 32-year-old musician – who attended the ceremony with tattooed model Arabella Drummond – is also in demand in his career after recently inking a new record deal with Sony’s Relentless Records.
Green is thrilled to be working with someone “fair” and “forward-thinking” again, after being teamed up with Shabs Jobanputra, who signed the ‘Read All About It’ hitmaker to Virgin in 2010.
The rapper – whose real name is Stephen Marsden – said: “Shabs was first out of the blocks for a second time round – it’s great to be back in the hands of someone fair, forward-thinking and committed.”
And a source said of the signing: “Sony and Relentless are chuffed to have signed Professor Green.
“There was a real battle for his signature but he and Shabs have a lot of history, and that really helped.
“As far as Professor Green is concerned, he feels – considering everything that’s gone on for him recently – that this is a hugely exciting, fresh start.”
