Superstar glamour model Jordan hits Belfast

The glamour queen was in Belfast for an appearance at the Big Boyz Toys & Gadget Show in the Kings - thanks to Andrew Short of AJS promotions Superstar glamour model Jordan is usually pictured falling out of taxis after evenings out in nightclubs or mixing with the A list of celebrates across Britain– but she took things a step further at the weekend when she got mixed up with two of Ireland best known kickboxers.
The glamour queen was in Belfast for an appearance at the Big Boyz Toys & Gadget Show in the Kings Hall on Sunday (October 12) and on arrival made a bee-line for two of her sporting heroes – Belfast’s kickboxing champions Billy Murray and Gary Hamilton.
“Jordan’s a big fan of kickboxing,” said four time World Champ Murray. “She talked for a while with Gary and myself about the ins and outs of the sport. She’s very knowledge about kickboxing moves. She posed with Gary’s belt. He was delighted to oblige.”
“She’s very quiet and polite in real life. She wasn’t at all like I expected,” said Hamilton. “She was very beautiful, but she wasn’t like a demanding diva.”
Jordan almost didn’t make her date in Belfast after staff at Luton Airport failed to recognise her and refused to let her board her flight. Jordan had forgotten photographic ID, essential now for all flyers. Staff at the easyjet check-in desk stuck to the letter of the law and would not let her board.
“It was very embarrassing,” said an insider. “Jordan was travelling under her real name, Katie Price. She made an honest mistake forgetting her ID. But even though some of the staff recognised her and knew that she was Jordan, she wasn’t allowed to board. She didn’t want to make a song and dance about it, so she made no fuss, went and got ID and waited for another flight.”
Jordan may be making a return visit to Belfast on December 22.
“She’s keen to get over for the Kickmas Box at the Ulster Hall,” said Murray. “Being Jordan, she has a full diary but she’s going to try make time for the Christmas show. It’ll add an extra punch to what already looks like being an explosive night, Ive contact Jordan's manager since we met, so lets hope she can make it.”
The Kickmas Box will see WKN lightweight champion Hamilton share top billing with Belfast’s amateur world Champ Gary Noade. He will be defending his world welterweight crown.
A full under-card pits the best of local talent against a host of European rising stars.
As a special Christmas treat for Irish fight fans, there will be a limited number of ‘KICKmas Box’ family tickets available. A group of four - Two adults and two children - can pick up a ticket for just £25 – that’s a 50% saving. Tickets otherwise are £15 - £25 ringside. Tickets are available through the ProKick gym on 028 90 651074 and through affiliated gyms.
