"I'd love to present The Xtra Factor, that's the dream," Virgin Media quotes her as saying.

"I love acting and I'd like to get into presenting," she told Reveal. "Me and Mark could be the new Ant & Dec, couldn't we?
"We've talked about it because we're sort of like the boy and the girl version of each other. It could be quite cool."
Mark, who landed a presenting role on Take Me Out: The Gossip, previously named Ant & Dec as his "heroes".

Oh dear is all I can say, I couldn't watch Take Me Out The Gossip as Mark was so cringe worthy I can't imagine what Jessica would be like.

I'm not quite sure who she is, and I've never seen that Essex show, but for people to say they could be the next Ant N Dec is just laughable - even if she is saying it tongue in cheek.
