I often get emails from people wanted to get in touch with Gok or get his advice and am always sorry when I have to say that I am afraid I can’t help 
But now’s your chance!
Gok Wan is currently looking for men and women of all ages to appear in the new series of Channel 4’s How To Look Good Naked.
If you would like to take part then email howtolookgoodnaked@mavericktv.co.uk or call 0121 224 8348.
This is your chance to meet Gok Wan!
The Gok Wan makeovers of Carol McGiffin and Big Brother contestants Chantelle Houghton and Michelle Heaton were featured in this week’s Heat magazine, but if you missed them you can see some of them here.
As you’d expect the girls look gorgeous as a result fo Gok’s magic makeovers.
Carol said she was looking forward to working with Gok Wan:
‘I thought Gok giving me a makeover would be brilliant because I’ve watched a load of things he’s done and he’s never made anyone look s***’
Well that’s one way of putting it!
So did you see Gok Wan on Celebrity Apprentice?
Although he was clearly a bit stressed at times I thought he did a great job, doing all the decor and sorting all the outfits for the dancers. And it was really nice to see him more in his usual personality compared to how shaken he seemed on ‘Too Fat Too Young’. So funny!
I personally thought that the boys’ ‘Swap Belt’ was a much better product than the girls’ ‘Stick Stuck’ but I guess they fell down, like many a team on the Apprentice, on their financial calculations.
Shame Alan Carr had to get fired… he really makes me laugh. Any one else think he sounds just like Zippy? 
You can read the full episode run-down here.
I came across this fab post on the Rubber Chickens blog today. It’s a wonderful reminder about how amazing what Gok Wan does on How to Look Good Naked really is, which is easy to forget when he does so much else and has so many imitators and detractors.
It’s well worth a read. Read it now.
There’s a fab new interview with Gok Wan up now at the Mail online.
In it Gok talks about his own body insecurities - and about how he can be a really bad shopper! Apprarently half the things he buys he gets because he’s seen them on someone he thinks looks hot so gets the look for himself, then doesn’t wear it!
Like most of us, he likes to cheer himself up with a shopping splurge - except for Gok, sometimes that can be a £10,000 splurge or a Rolex impluse buy. Ah, that’s the life.
The official Apprentice blog has the scoop on the celebrities’ first task for Sir Alan.
They have to design a toy and create an accompanying ad campaign, then pitch it to the gurus.
I love how Gok’s really working that red nose in this pic!
It’s going to be on TV BBC1 Thursday 12 March 9pm and Friday 13 from 7pm - don’t miss it!
Those lovely folks over at Now magazine have got their mitts on 15 copies of Gok Wan’s style guide ‘How to Dress’.
To be in with a chance of winning one simply get on over to Now and answer their easy peasy question about Gok. Good luck!
If, like me, you want to be kept bang up to date on everything Gok Wan gets up to in this year’s Celebrity Apprentice, you’ll want to keep an eye on the official Apprentice blog.
It looks like Sir Alan is sticking to his usual formula of encouraging a girls v boys battle of the sexes, meaning, for once, Gok will be against rather than for women.
It’s definitely going to be essential viewing!
The Irish Indpendent has a great new interview with Gok Wan
As well as a run down of Gok Wan’s ever so busy career to date there’s a juicy little bit of info at the end about Alan Carr, with whom he is soon to appear in Celebrity Apprentice 2009.
When questioned whether he fancied Alan , Gok had this to say:
“I know Alan very well… He’s adorable; he’s so funny and entertaining and makes me laugh.” There’s a pause, “so yes, actually, I do fancy him”.
Maybe romance will blossom in the Celebrity Apprentice flat?
This is very exciting news. Gok Wan is going to be one of 8 celebrities taking part in a special Comic Relief edition of the Apprentice series with Alan Sugar. I’d love to see how Gok reacts to Sir Alan in the boardroom. I’ll bet with a whole heap of cheeky comebacks - don’t let me down now Gok!
And the other participants? Jack Dee, Gerald Ratner, Patsy Palmer, Carol Vorderman, Ruby Wax, Michelle Mone, Fiona Phillips, Jonathan Ross and Alan Carr.
This sounds almost too good to be true - I do hope my sources are correct. I bet Gok Wan and Ruby Wax get on like a house on fire - can you imagine?
Gok Wan for Celebrity Apprentice 2009!
