Katie Price won a debate at Cambridge University last night.

The glamour girl proved she's got brains as well as beauty when she beat London mayor Boris Johnson's sister with her views opposing the motion: 'This house believes the only limit to female success is female ambition.'

The students showed strong support for Katie after her 10-minute speech, even though at one point she forgot her lines.

'If you play Trivial Pursuit with me I will definitely lose,' Katie, 33, told the audience.

But she later revealed her life motto is: 'There is no such thing as can't, because I can.'

Her competitor, Rachel Johnson - editor of The Lady - made a few sarcastic comments about Katie, who has a string of successful business ventures to her name. 

'The sky is the limit or in your case a 10 part series on Sky called Katie,' said Rachel, 46.

She then cheekily added: 'Katie Price's novels are for real lovers of literature.'

But Rachel's remarks didn't convince and mum-of-3 Katie was crowned victorious.

'I decided to invite Katie Price because she's a prominent public figure who is very popular among and represents the aspirations of a large number of women and girls in the UK,' says Cambridge Union president, Katie Lam.

'And I thought her perspective would be a valuable one to add to the debate.'
