Schapelle Corby to star in reality show SAS Australia alongside Roxy Jacenko and Nick Cummins

Convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby is finally making the leap to reality TV - and several Aussie B-listers will be joining her.

Convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby has used her prison notoriety to sign onto a reality TV show deal that will bring her back into the spotlight, six years since her release and three years since she returned to Australia.

The 43-year-old will appear on Channel 7 action show SAS Australia.

Schapelle Corby is set to star in reality show SAS Australia, hence the pants.

The program is new to Australian screens, based off a UK action contest where participants undergo boot camps similar to ones the Special Air Service experience.

Ex-special forces soldiers will be hosting the challenges. They will not be told who the celebrities are.

Other participants so far announced to appear on the show are the rugby star Nick Cummins, former iron woman Candice Warner, comedian Merrick Watts and PR queen Roxy Jacenko.

“We go into the SAS as a number, not a name, which is significant for me because I won’t be Schapelle Corby, I will just be a human being,” Corby said.

“I think I’ll discover that I’m stronger than I am, that I think I am. I’m hoping to discover life and to discover myself.”

Corby was convicted for smuggling 4.2kg of marijuana into Indonesia in a boogie board bag and spent nine years imprisoned in Bali.

Corby has cultivated a high profile social media presence since her release from the Balinese prison.

In October last year she appeared with her sister Mercedes on the Kyle and Jackie O show to promote her updated memoir My Story.

Earlier this year she appeared in a rap music video.
