Liz McClarnon has revealed that she had Botox in her armpits to stop her sweating. The 29-year-old, who shot to fame in pop band Atomic Kitten, said she also had the injections to smooth out wrinkles in her forehead. She told ITV show This Morning: "Do you want to know a little secret? I got some (Botox) the other day! It was amazing!" The former Celebrity Masterchef champion, who has been appearing as a panellist on The Wright Stuff, added: "I actually got some in my armpits to stop me sweating for filming my new series and I went, 'oh just pop a bit in my forehead as well', and it's absolutely brilliant. And it's for me. I've told everybody!" Recently Kylie Minogue, her sister Dannii and Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden have told how they have stopped having the injections. A spokesman for The Consulting Room, a Botox website, said of Botox in the armpits: "The treatment lasts about six or seven months and costs from £450 upwards. "Some models on photoshoots use it because they don't want to sweat so much. Then it's much more effective than an anti-perspirant. "Other people who have a medical condition, hyperhidrosis, use it and it can last about six months."
