LINGERIE tycoon Michelle Mone has held secret talks to join TV show Dragons’ Den.
And the baroness is keen to take a chair on the long-running BBC Two entrepreneur series to try to give “inspiration” to people.

The 48-year-old, who founded designer underwear brand Ultimo before selling the company in 2014, says programme bosses have approached her several times.
Baroness Mone, worth around £50million, said: “In the past, I’ve been offered Dragons’ Den and I’ve turned it down due to business commitments.
“But I just feel that after this whole coronavirus crisis is over, we need to be lifted up as individuals — we need to feel there is a real purpose in life and what we’re going to do with our lives.
“I might be open to something that might help to give people inspiration.

“I hate when people say that someone can’t do it and that they should stay where they are, and they will never make it in life. I always say, ‘Why?’ and, ‘No way’.”
Baroness Mone has taken part in TV shows, with stints on Loose Women, Celebrity MasterChef and arctic challenge show 71 Degrees North.
She also hinted at ambitions to become the British Oprah Winfrey, outlining plans for a magazine-style programme. The Scot explained: “What I’d really like to do when this is over is to try to make as many people as positive as possible.
“Maybe one day, that might be by doing a TV show to inspire people instead of all this reality stuff of getting no one anywhere.

“We need to take the negativity out of everything. Everything that we switch on, everything that we read, is negative.
“I would love to just change that. I’m not saying I’m going to be Mother Teresa or anything but I’d love to have a part in changing the narrative.”
Baroness Mone, who founded MJM International with her former husband Michael in 1996, is self-isolating with her fiance Doug Barrowman at the couple’s Isle Of Man mansion.
They were due to marry in a private chapel at the Palace of Westminster this summer, but days after the lockdown was announced she said their nuptials were postponed indefinitely.
