Billie Piper says she was ‘oversexualised’ early in her career because of ‘sanctioned pimping’ by showbiz agents

BILLIE Piper has accused showbiz agents of “sanctioned pimping”.
The former Doctor Who star claims she was “oversexualised” earlier in her career.
Billie, 35 — who rose to fame as a 15-year-old pop singer — told The Sunday Times Style magazine: “I find the abuse of power really upsetting.
“If I’m honest what I find really sickening is all the agents subjecting their clients to it, knowing full well what’s going on. Like sanctioned pimping.”

But the star is not a fan of the #MeToo social media movement against sexual exploitation.
She said: “Let’s say I know a lot of headstrong actors and actresses wanting to get something who wouldn’t say they’re victims of this.”
Billie stars in BBC2 crime series Collateral with Carey Mulligan and John Simm from next Monday.
