Convicted drug smuggler 'Cocaine Cassie' Sainsbury has confirmed her plans to become a reality star when she returns home to Australia.
On Thursday, the 26-year-old revealed on The Kyle and Jackie O show that she intends to follow in Schapelle Corby's footsteps upon her arrival Down Under, claiming any reality series would be 'a blast'.
Cassie, 26, spent three years in the South American country's notorious El Buen Pastor prison after being convicted of smuggling 5.8kg of cocaine hidden inside headphones in April 2017.

She was released from custody last year to serve the remainder of her six-year sentence on parole in the Columbian capital Bogota due to jail overcrowding during the coronavirus pandemic.
After hearing her story during a live radio interview, Kyle Sandilands, 50, exclaimed: 'We should do a reality show with Cassie... are you up for any reality shows, or anything like that?'
'I am definitely up for reality shows. I think it would be a blast,' she giddily responded.
'Get on to them, people!' Kyle's co-host Jackie 'O' Henderson replied.
