Career
Lennard came to the public's attention in 2005 as a finalist in the reality TV talent search Make Me a Supermodel. She angered judge Rachel Hunter by saying "I suggest she throws out the truckload of make-up she uses and hires a personal trainer."[3] and talked about her lesbian affairs while filming the show.

On 15 August 2012, she was the 12th housemate to enter Celebrity Big Brother 10. She was subsequently nominated for eviction and, on Day 8, was the first celebrity to be voted out of the house. She returned to the house on Day 11 as a guest.
Lennard appeared on a celebrity special of Come Dine with Me in December 2012 with Nick Pickard, Crissy Rock, Chelsee Healey and Marcus Collins - she was kicked off the show after allegedly threatening another guest during a confrontation and was replaced by Margi Clarke.[4]
