Nicola McLean has revealed that Justin Timberlake once asked her out at the Playboy Mansion but she turned him down.

The glamor model, 42, best known for her modeling on Page 3, spoke candidly about her experiences early in her career.

On the Saving Grace podcast, she told the story of when she was invited to the Playboy Mansion to celebrate Hugh Hefner’s 75th birthday.

“Being sensible, I was only 19 and drinking water all night,” she said.

“I’d be worried if I went now, I’d be in that cave. Three glasses of prosecco and I’m head first in that cave.

The model revealed that she met Justin while attending a party at the Playboy Mansion, but because she had a boyfriend at the time, she turned down his offer for a date.

Nicola (pictured as a star in 2001) said on the Saving Grace podcast: ‘Because I had a boyfriend at the time who I hated. And now I’m still mad at myself

‘But then I was boring. Justin Timberlake asked me out to the mansion and I said no.

‘Because at the time I had a boyfriend who I hated. And now I’m still angry with myself.

“I mean, he can dance, he can sing, it’s probably small. He seemed quite shy, but then he had his people come over and take me there.

“Which I was a little defiant about, because I was like, why am I walking to you and why don’t you come to me.

‘But then I got over it. I wish I was an impostor.’

MailOnline has contacted a representative for Justin Timberlake for comment.

The interview comes after Justin was arrested in the Hamptons earlier this week for driving under the influence and ignoring a stop sign.

In exclusive footage obtained by DailyMail.com, he was seen in handcuffs being led out by police officers after his arrest.

Timberlake was drinking with friends at the bar of the American Hotel in Sag Harbor on Monday night when he decided to get behind the wheel of his BMW X7 shortly before 12:30 p.m.

The father-of-two is also said to have been unsteady on his feet and “performed poorly” on a field sobriety test, which he ultimately failed.

After being arrested and taken to a local police station, he also refused to take a breath test.

Timberlake had his driving license suspended in New York State for refusing the breath test.

Timberlake could potentially get a year in jail, pay a hefty fine or lose his driver’s license for six months.

The pop star has two upcoming shows in Chicago later this week, followed by back-to-back nights at Madison Square Garden in New York City next week.
