Professor Green slates TOWIE stars

Professor Green has quipped that he would put the stars of The Only Way Is Essex in prison if he was Prime Minister.

The At Your Inconvenience rapper - whose girlfriend Millie Mackintosh appears in rival reality TV show Made In Chelsea - joked with the Sun that he didn't think much of the ITV2 series, or its former star Amy Childs.

When asked what he'd do if he was leader of the country for a day, Professor Green replied: "I'd put all of TOWIE in prison. Or maybe I'd kill them all and the country's IQ would rise. Only joking!"

He added: "Amy Childs was at the Baftas presenting an award. Comedy's all about timing and there were some awkward sketches..."

The star, whose real name is Stephen Manderson, attended the TV Baftas on Sunday with Millie, who wore a Grecian Lanvin dress.

One celebrity who clearly impressed him at the glitzy bash was Ricky Gervais.

The rap star posted a snap on Twitter of himself and Millie posing with The Office star and wrote: "I never ask anyone for a picture but look who I just met!"
