Amy Childs has hit back at 'The Only Way Is Essex' newcomer Georgina Dorsett for slamming her career.

The 21-year-old redhead - who quit the ITV2 reality show last year - was furious when she heard Georgina had claimed she wasn't a proper businesswoman, as she was too busy worrying about how she looked.

Amy said: 'I heard Georgina was slagging off my career, saying she is a businesswoman - but I am one too.

'I have my own salon, I've got my own clothing range, I've got my own eyelashes and fake tan ranges. How on earth can you say I'm not a businesswoman?'

The former beautician - who brought vajazzling, the decorating of a woman's intimate parts, into the public eye - admitted while Georgina is a 'beautiful girl', she doesn't appreciate it when people 'slate' her.

Amy told the Daily Star newspaper: 'Georgina is a beautiful girl and I'm sure she will get a lot of endorsements. But I don't like it when people slate me for vajazzling. Look how many people are now into vajazzling and how much money has been made from it.

'If I see her, through, I will be like, 'All right, honey?' But I am a businesswoman - that's me.'

The reality star's comments come after Georgina admitted she was 'more driven by business' than beauty procedures.

She recently said: 'I don't spend my days in nail and beauty salons and having hair extensions. And I don't have a vajazzle. I'm more driven by business.'
