2011-12-17 I'm a celebrity, get me into the race!

MAN of the moment Andrej Pejic wants to move in to the very fast lane.

Pejic, one of the world's most in demand male models who is famed for his gender bending image, wants to put the pedal to the metal on the Grand Prix circuit in March.

"I really want the Australian Grand Prix to ask me to do the celebrity race," Pejic said yesterday.

"Unfortunately I only have my learners, but maybe my mum can sit next to me."

With a bit of driver training by the Grand Prix gurus, there's no doubt Pejic could whiz around the Albert Park circuit with the actors, presenters and sporting types that usually get a drive in the popular celebrity race.

Pejic, who sent fashion circles into a spin after his campaign for a Danish lingerie company was released last week, has a number of diverse ambitions for the new year.

"I really hope to get a one-way ticket to Bollywood," he said, hinting at acting plans.

"I'm wanting to branch out - become a business person, enjoy the world for hopefully one more year before it


descends into chaos. And I want to look at opportunities to come home (to Melbourne) more."

Pejic, whose fragile beauty and feminine ways have seen him appear as a bride on the catwalks of Paris and wear a pencil skirt to meet the Queen at Buckingham Palace, won't be Down Under for Christmas.

Rather, the star of the Chadwick models team, will spend the festive season and New Year's in Rio de Janeiro.
