Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh has landed a presenting role - fronting a documentary about jeans.

Walsh will travel around the US and Europe to uncover the history of the ubiquitous clothing which has become a staple of wardrobes around the world.

Her show for Sky 1 follows bandmate Nicola Roberts' programme for BBC3, 'The Truth About Tanning'.

Walsh's show, 'Jean Evolution', will go back to the beginnings of denim and look at the changing status of jeans through their popularity with Italian sailors and cowboys.

Walsh has already been a roving reporter for The 'X Factor' and presented red carpet coverage at the Baftas for MTV.

The programme will be screened later this year.
