Babestation model Beth Bennett has spoken about the night Paddy McGuinness and Robbie Williams called her for the first time as she cheekily encouraged the star to call again
Beth Bennett, a 38 year old Babestation model, has recalled the night TV stars Paddy McGuinness and Robbie Williams rang her up on the adult channel for a chat.
Beth had an inkling she was talking to the famed ‘Angels’ singer during the call but confessed she later ended up Googling who Paddy—the ex-host of ITV show Take Me Out—was.
The well-known duo, long-time mates who’ve toured together, made the call from inside Robbie’s pad in West London.
Opening up about it in 2021, Paddy shared: “So there we were, the king of pop, chatting away to this girl on Babestation who was totally oblivious to who she was talking to.”

In an exclusive chat with The Mirror, the Kiwi-born model, a 13-year veteran of the channel, spilt the beans on their actual natter.
Not missing a beat, she cheekily suggested that Paddy should give her a bell again now that he’s single following his split from wife Christine McGuinness.
“I will admit though, no idea who Paddy McGuinness was,” she laughed.
“Absolutely no clue and I’m still not that aware because I don’t watch a lot of television.
“I had to Google him, really sorry, but I very much encourage him to call again, for whichever path he wants to take – whether he wants to go the naughtier or nicer path we are definitely always open to hearing from him.”
On their original call, Beth revealed that Paddy chose a tame approach, chatting about footie—an area where she had to fake her way through—and then moving on to a lively debate about biscuits, reports the Mirror.
“It was a pretty long conversation from what I remember,” she recounted.
“They [Babestation calls] all time out at about 18 minutes as an automatic thing and I want to say that it lasted all the way.
“The football chatter obviously went straight away. When people call and they are in a group at that time of night, I would have asked them what they had been up to that night but I don’t think they gave too much away on that.
“I think they said they had just been on a lad’s night out or something.”
Explaining the nature of the chat, which veered into comedy films, she noted: “I think those conversations are always the most fun, just joking and everything like that.
“I think if anything it is kind of a pre-curser a lot of the time to a naughtier conversation and I think it is more comfortable if you can do that before you get into the sexy stuff.”
However, instead of escalating to racier topics, the chat took an odd twist when Jaffa Cakes were mentioned.
Beth remembered: “I can’t recall much of what we discussed but we debated the age-old biscuit.
“There’s a YouTube video where someone rings up a girl on Babestation, and while she’s being very sultry, he’s solely focused on biscuits, and since then, everyone calls up and imitates it, so I reckon they did the same.
“And we had the age-old discussion of is a Jaffa Cake a biscuit or a cake. And I want to say they named a really boring biscuit as their favourite like a custard cream or something like that but memory… it could have been a bourbon, who knows?”.
She went on to express her feelings about the encounter: “I don’t think from memory they told me who they were which
“I think is pretty cool because obviously people like that don’t often get to stay anonymous and talk to women and stuff so I think it is quite neat and if anything I think it is better that way.”
Beth’s revelation came after Paddy mentioned the incident in public, which led her friends to send her the stories questioning if it was indeed her—it turned out it was.
As for being surprised by receiving calls from celebrities, she mentioned that it happens more frequently than one might expect.
