Gemma Collins has said her new book will be “bigger than the Bible.”

The Only Way Is Essex star drew comparisons between her book entitled The GC: How To Be A Diva, and the holy Christian text.

Collins said the similarities between the two texts were that they “spread cheer” and “touch hearts.”

In an interview with Heat Magazine, Collins said: “I think this book is bigger than the Bible and do you know why? Because this is going to spread cheer like the Bible.

“You know how that touches our hearts and everything? My book does the same.”

The 37-year-old added that she was unable to put her own book down.

She said: “It spreads happiness and it’s not the sort of book you’ll read once either – you’ll go back to it and back to it. I cannot stop reading it.”

The reality star declared that her book will be “life-changing” because it is so “positive.”

Collins explained: “I think there’s so much negativity going on in the world, this book will change your life, it’ll brighten anyone’s day – there are so many LOLs and it’s positive.

“I’m not telling everybody to be a diva. I think people see diva as a negative word I think we’ve got to change our perception of it.

“Like, there’s so many people that just need to start owning who they are and getting the best out of life.”
