Curvy Page 3 Idol winner Lucy is proud of her size 10-12 figure, and hopes to send out a positive message to young women.
"I've never aspired to be a size eight," she says.
"I want women to know that you don't have to be super skinny to be a model, besides, guys like curves.
"I want to be the size 12 Kate Moss.
"I'm not a gym junkie - I think the gym's a waste of time.
I go running in the fresh air every other day instead. I find it's a really good de-stress."
Lucy's modelling career started with hair modelling for Toni & Guy salons. As a result, she has gone through every shade of red hair and says the bold look matches her personality.
She says: "I've been red for so long now, it would feel boring to go back to brown.
I think it suits me because I'm bubbly, a little fiery, a little loud and I like to be the centre of attention.
"I'm not the sort of girl to sit on the sidelines."
As a result of winning Page 3 Idol, Lucy vows to throw herself into raising money for soldiers' charity, Help for Heroes.
"A friend of mine was killed in Afghanistan so it's a cause that's close to my heart.
I would love to visit the injured troops at Headley Court and try to put a smile on their faces."
