IT'S bra tycoon Michelle Mone as you've never seen her before ... in her new role as a TV presenter.

Michelle is the latest face to join GMTV after being hired as the show's new business expert.

Today she brought the show to her home city of Glasgow kicking off a series aimed at helping people get the best out of their careers.

Michelle, who runs MJM International with husband Michael said: "It's a lot of time out of my schedule but the show gets 7million viewers a day and it's great for the brand."

The Ultimo bra maker joins another Scots favourite, Lorraine Kelly, on the morning show and this week Michelle will share her business tips, from how to dress for an interview to writing a CV.

A GMTV spokeswoman said: "We chose Michelle as she is an inspirational woman who has built her empire from scratch through hard work and determination.

"We want viewers to see that if she can do it, they can achieve their dream job too."

What a novel idea, using someone who actually started with nothing and built a world class business, with a world class brand.

Usually it's some MBA type who has done nothing except get an MBA, who is telling us how to do it.

I hope she is genuinely inspirational.

This "bra tycoon" makes her money off the backs of the virtually forced labour of chinese workers who slave for poverty pay to support her bourgeois lifestyle. She embodies the values of capitalistic parasitism. This is not someone to be envied or emulated, rather she is to be despised.

JP,

In case you haven't been told, Communism failed. The Wall tumbled and pathetic idiotic clowns like you are the ones who are despised!
The ones who accepted the dogma of the "manipulators extraordinaire" who told everybody how they should live, but never followed their own doctrine.

Those who can, do! What have you ever done?

Where is the evidence to back up your inebriated comments about Chinese workers and Michelle Mone's manufacturing? Have you been to China? Have you even been outside your house?

You have not one iota of an idea of what you are talking about....as usual!
