Keeley Rebecca Hazell (born 18 September 1986) is an English model and actress. A former Page 3 girl, she also worked with magazines such as FHM, Loaded, Nuts and Zoo Weekly. She has made numerous television appearances and has appeared in films including Horrible Bosses 2 (2014) and the streaming television series Ted Lasso (2020).

Career

Modelling

In 2002, aged 16, Hazell left school to work as a hairdresser. Her colleagues persuaded her to try modelling. Aged 17, she competed in The Daily Star's "Search for a Beach Babe" contest and won, but she was not old enough to pose for Page 3 and so went to study fashion at Lewisham College. Later, a friend told her about The Sun's Page 3 Idol competition. Despite some initial uncertainty about entering the contest, she submitted some photos. She won the contest in December 2004. She won a one-year exclusive glamour modelling contract with The Sun, in addition to £10,000 worth of clothing and a one-year membership to the Rex cinema and bar.

Hazell was regularly featured in Nuts and Zoo Weekly. In June 2005, she appeared on the cover of Maxim magazine and she also appeared on the front cover of FHM in September that year. In January 2006, she appeared on the cover of Loaded. She was on the cover of The Sun's 2006 and 2007 Page 3 calendars, in addition to releasing her own wall calendars; her 2007 calendar sold 30,000 copies in its first few days of release.

In 2008, Hazell and agent Ginny Mettrick co-founded a modelling agency called Muse Management. In 2009, Peta Todd stated in Loaded that Hazell had given up modelling and was in the United States receiving acting lessons, with the intention of pursuing an acting career. Her last appearance on Page 3 of The Sun was on 30 September 2009. In January 2013, Hazell made a return to modelling by appearing in FHM.

Other media appearances

Hazell was chosen to promote Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's Formula One 06 video game released in July 2006 for PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable; and Formula One Championship Edition for PlayStation 3 the following year. She then became the face of MotorStorm: Pacific Rift (2008) for PlayStation 3.

Hazell had a small role in the 2006 film Cashback after it had been reworked from a short into a full-length film. The following year, she was in talks with producers to feature in a film based on the television series Baywatch.

In 2007, Hazell and IT expert Gary Schwartz co-presented Byte Me TV, an online programme that tried to explain technology in an easy-to-understand way. The following year she appeared in the BBC Three documentary Page Three Teens; and released a pop music single called "Voyeur" on Polydor Records.

In 2010, Hazell had her first lead role, in the short film Venus and the Sun, a comedic retelling of Ovid's myth, Venus and Adonis. She followed this up with a small role in the film Like Crazy, which won both the Grand and a Special Jury Prize at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

In 2012, Hazell played a supporting role in the gangster film St George's Day. She then starred in the 2013 comedy film Awful Nice and the 2015 horror film Whispers. Also in 2015, she landed a television role, in E!'s first scripted drama, The Royals, as Violet. She then appeared in the 2016 short film Queen of Hearts and two years later appeared in the 2018 TV Movie Vows of Deceit. In 2020 she appeared in the streaming television series Ted Lasso as Bex, the girlfriend of the former owner of AFC Richmond, Rupert Mannion; she co-wrote episode 8 of season 3.

Writing

Hazell has written a forthcoming memoir titled Everyone's Seen My Tits, which will be published by Grand Central Publishing.

Environmental and charitable work

Hazell was hailed by Conservative leader David Cameron in December 2006 as an "environmental hero" for her campaigns in The Sun, giving environmental tips such as turning lights off during the day. She was named alongside the likes of David Attenborough, Charles III and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Tories' list.

Hazell backed a major breast cancer awareness campaign for Breakthrough Breast Cancer. The campaign, called 'TALK TLC', aimed to promote Breakthrough's breast health message about the need to be aware of the signs and symptoms of breast cancer. Hazell has also signed up to take part in the Breakthrough Generations Study consisting of 100,000 women and spanning 40 years; the study aims to be the largest and most comprehensive of its kind.

Hazell appeared naked in advertising posters for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), and she has been quoted as saying: "Once you learn how the fur trade treats animals, it's impossible to think of wearing fur as sexy or glamorous."
