Holly Candy, known professionally as Holly Valance, has taken a stunning swipe at climate activist Greta Thunberg in an explosive interview with GB News' Chopper's Political Podcast.
Valance, 40, a former pop star and Neighbours actress who has recently rebranded herself as a conservative commentator, didn't mince words as she revealed her thoughts on Swedish-born Thunberg, 21.
The Aussie star told podcast host Christopher Hope: 'I don't understand why you have this, like, demonic little gremlin high priestess of climatism as the goddess in classrooms, Greta [Thunberg].'
'All the kids are all coming home with depression and anxiety,' she said.
'Why would you go to your music lesson or bother doing your homework or get out of your bed if you think we're all going to be dead in five years anyway?'
The mother-of-two also declared she has no intention of moving back to her Australian homeland, lamenting that the country is going 'woke'.

'The Australia I grew up in was unreal. It was so fun and we didn't seem to have all these problems ... the woke stuff's really gone big in Australia,' she said.
Holly elaborated on the 'woke culture', pointing towards 'the stuff they're teaching in school': 'I don't think sexuality and children should be in the same sentence. I don't think anyone's sexuality is anyone's business. You don't know about mine. I don't know about yours. Why would we?'
Valance, who is married to billionaire property developer Nick Candy, was born in Australia but has UK citizenship through her British mother. She lives in London and the Cotswolds.

Holly also took the opportunity to target 'nanny state' Victoria, explaining that she still gets fines every few months for not voting. The government will 'fine you for breathing,' she joked.
She also firmly ruled out a return to Australia if Labour were to win the upcoming UK election.
'The plan would be to stay and live where we love, which is here, I'm very patriotic to this place. My mother is from Southampton. My whole family is English,' she told the podcast.
'I don't want to go anywhere. And Nick doesn't want to go anywhere. We prefer to be in our country.'

In 2012, Holly married Nick in Beverly Hills and they welcomed two daughters together in 2013 and 2017 named Luka Violet Toni and Nova Skye Coco respectively.
The couple enjoy a lavish lifestyle and previously lived in a two-storey Hyde Park penthouse worth $340million (£175million), making it Britain's most expensive flat.
Nick and Holly have since downsized to a $19.5million (£10million) countryside mansion in the Cotswolds, which they are currently renovating.
In 2020, Nick gifted Holly with a $50.5million (£26million) superyacht, despite the mother-of-two famously suffering from sea sickness.
