Mercedes doesn't care if she gets Fatter!

Jennifer at the Inside Soap Awards

Jennifer Metcalfe will never give up her party girl lifestyle to be slim.

The ‘Hollyoaks‘ actress – who plays mouthy barmaid Mercedes McQueen in the Channel 4 soap – dines out with friends most days and doesn’t care if it means she puts on weight.

She said: “I’m really bad. I eat out about six times a week. But I always try to pick a healthy option.

“At the moment my body’s not the best it could be, but I love socialising and if it means being a size bigger – so be it!”

Instead, the 27-year-old beauty believes it is important to dress for your shape.

She said: “Basically I think it’s important to wear clothes that fit your size and to dress to complement your shape. If you’re a size 12 don’t go out in size zero dresses! I’m different sizes all over, maybe six on top, ten on the bottom, all different. But I always try to eat healthily.”
