View Full Version : I'm A Celebrity - Get Me Out Of Here 2009
Gail Porter has revealed that she is hoping to star on I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! next year.
The TV host admitted that she was jealous when she watched this year's contestants living in the Australian outback for the ITV1 reality series.
"I'd love to do that show. To me, it looks like so much fun," Porter explained. "I couldn't think of anything better than camping and facing all those challenges.
"I did an SAS-style camp holiday for Wish You Were Here...? once. It was really tough and I was told I could stay in a hotel each night if I wanted. I was like: 'Screw that, I'm staying in a tent!' It was freezing cold, I got soaked to the bone, I became ill - and I loved every second of it."
She added: "I'd be in my element in the jungle. I wouldn't even mind eating the bugs."
Former EastEnders actor Joe Swash was voted as the show's latest jungle king earlier this month.

I'm a celebrity’s jungle site has become a hot-spot for UFOs.
A paranormal group in Australia claims flying saucers and aliens have been seen there.
Murwillumbah, where the stars camp out, has been visited by strange-shaped aircraft stopping mid-flight and changing direction, said the UFO Research Group for Queensland.
They also claim there have been face-to-face encounters with “strange alien beings” and bright lights and orange balls have been spotted in the sky.
The weirdest discovery was a group of cattle found myster-iously mutilated.
Group member Patricia McDougal, 68, told Hot TV: “There has been lots of activity in the region.
"There are records out there which show that UFOs were seen over Murwillumbah almost 100 years ago.
“We’ve had members who have found their cattle mutilated, with no explanation.
“Some have witnessed bizarre-shaped crafts doing things that no plane could ever do.
“Some folk told us they have met aliens.”
Last year a flying saucer was spotted above the hotel where jungle hosts Ant and Dec, both 33, were staying while filming the show.
Ant and Dec are reportedly facing a £6 million pay cut as recession-hit ITV attempts to make savings of £65 million.
The presenting duo, who host I'm A Celebrity..., told The Mirror that they are bracing themselves for the autumn when their deal is to be revisited.
Ant McPartlin, 33, said: "It's a tough time for everyone right now and our deal is up later this year. Who knows what will happen?
"If we're offered less, so be it. For me it's all about the shows. I just want to make great shows and brilliant programmes and money comes after that."
McPartlin and his co-presenter Dec Donnelly, 34, are expected to start talks in the summer about extending their two-and-a-half-year contract. The pair also host Britain's Got Talent and Saturday Night Takeaway.

Oh help I've lost my hanky to wipe the tears from my glass eye. Poor little tweedle dum and tweedle dee are having to take a pay cut. Instead of flying the celebs out to Australia why not take them up to one of the remote scottish islands or southern Ireland they can still put live rats in a box and eat animal testicals.
But they would not be able to take showers in the nude or in skimpy bikinis as the climate on scottish islands or southern Ireland is not quite the same as in Australia. But, come to think of it, that might not be a bad thing. :lol:
Britain's Got Talent star Susan Boyle is rumoured to be appearing in the next series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The 48-year-old Scottish singer, dubbed the Hairy Angel, is said to have been lined up as the wild card contestant when the ITV show next airs later this year.
Susan, who has had more than 100million hits on the internet, is in the frame for a role on the hit reality show after hosts Ant and Dec put her name forwards, it has been reported.
Her presence on the show could give the cash-strapped channel a huge boost, appealing to a worldwide audience.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: 'Susan would be TV gold if she went into the jungle. She's the biggest celebrity of the year so far.
don't think there's anyone in the country who doesn't know who she is.
'Having her in the jungle would be a massive boost, not to mention helping us to attract audiences from around the world.
'Everyone of those millions of people who logged on to the web to see her would go to our website to see what she's doing. If we sold advertising on the clips it would be worth a fortune.'
On top of this, TV bosses are confident Susan would a brilliant contestant in the Australian jungle.
The source added: 'Susan has a great sense of humour which would be great to have in the jungle.
'There's such a fascination in what she's likes and how she acts that I think not only would she do well, but she could actually win.'
The last series of I'm A Celebrity was won by former EastEnders actor Joe Swash.
In the show, celebrity contestants have to live in the Outback and undertake all manner of tasks, such as eating bugs to earn points.

SOCCER legend Paul Gascoigne has signed up for I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.
The ex-England ace is determined to stay off booze so he can appear on the hit ITV1 show in November.
Troubled Gazza, 41, said he is “really excited” about the idea of toughing it out in the Australian jungle. He said: “I’m A Celeb has always been a show I’ve wanted to do one day. I can’t wait.”
Producers of I’m A Celeb, which is hosted by Geordie pals Ant and Dec, had approached troubled Gazza to appear on numerous occasions in the past — but they’ve never been able to strike a deal.
Gazza spoke of his relief at finally conquering his demons. He said: “I’m feeling great. Everything’s going really well.
The fallen soccer hero recently revealed he’d “died” three times when his heart stopped beating while in rehab.
But last month he confirmed he’d been clean from drugs for 15 months and booze-free for four months. He also confessed that his new-found faith in God is helping his recovery. On Tuesday he looked well as he judged the Miss Great Britain Final in London — won by Miss Newcastle Sophie Gradon, 23.
An onlooker at the bash said: “Gazza stuck to energy drinks all night. He was dancing and laughing.”
The former Newcastle player will also be heading to Argentina in the next few weeks to film a celebrity version of hit BBC1 Saturday night show Wipeout.
Meanwhile, Gazza agreed yesterday to play in July for his cancer-hit former manager Sir Bobby Robson, 76, for a charity re-run at Newcastle of England’s 1990 World Cup clash with Germany.
* Gazza's going on I'm A Celeb, Get Me Outta Here, please don't provide him with any alcohol

I hope Gazza is on the road to recovery if he does appear on the show they will have to have a ban on alcohol for all celebs.
I was just thinking what would the producers do if they were to give the contestants alcohol as a reward. Then again I'm sure they can go without alcohol for a couple of weeks.
I can't believe people have signed and it's been released that they're taking part when the series doesn't start until November.

It would be a laugh watching them trying to pitch a tent in the blustering wind and rain and they could eat tripe (sheep's belly) haggis (sheep's intenstine's) and black pudding (you don't want to know) washed down with Irn Bru. Talking of which has anyone see the latest advert. Brilliant they do a HSM version and their description of Irn Bru is. "It's Ginger, it's fizzy it's phenomanal" Classic :rotfl:
ITV producers are targeting actor Brian Blessed for the next series of I'm A Celebrity..., say reports.
According to The Sun, the 71-year-old turned down the chance to appear on Hell's Kitchen, but bosses are hopeful that he will enter the jungle later this year.
"Can you imagine Brian in the jungle? He would be TV gold," said a source. "We have approached him and really hope he'll join us."
Blessed, who has appeared on shows such as Blake's 7, Z-Cars and Doctor Who, has also explored jungles in Venezuela, trekked to the North Pole and attempted to climb Mount Everest three times.
Last month, former England footballer Paul 'Gazza' Gascoigne was also linked to the ITV1 reality show.
FOOTBALL legend Paul Gascoigne has been axed from I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! after ITV bosses declared he was “mentally unfit”.
Gazza’s latest blow comes after his new girlfriend revealed he had called her during a massive booze bender and said: “I’m going to kill myself.”
The 42-year-old alcoholic had signed a big-money deal last month to go on I’m A Celeb. But a source said bosses got cold feet following Susan Boyle’s meltdown over Britain’s Got Talent.
The insider added: “Paul Gascoigne was given a psychiatric test to see how he was, but he failed it. It was such a shame considering bosses had been trying to get him on the show for years.
However they realised it was just too much of a risk for him to enter the jungle and be under such intense public scrutiny.”
ITV chiefs are now talking to other ex-footballers to take Gazza’s place in the Aussie jungle in November. He is set to be devastated by the U-turn.
The former England ace said recently: “I’ve always wanted to do I’m A Celeb. I can’t wait.”
But the fallen idol’s girlfriend Emma Kate Dawson, 21, believes Gazza needs help, not publicity. She said he rang her on Wednesday after an all-day booze binge saying he had a knife and wanted to kill himself.
She begged him to reveal his location before Gazza chillingly whispered: “I'm going to do something stupid. I know it.”
Sobbing Emma then spent two hours phoning London hotels in a bid to find him — unaware he had caught a train from the capital to Newcastle.
Yesterday The Sun showed pictures of Gazza — so drunk he could barely walk — being helped off the train by pal Jimmy “Five Bellies” Gardener.
Last night Emma told The Sun: “I don’t believe he actually wants to die, he’s just crying out for help. Enough is enough. He needs sectioning again before it’s too late.”

EastEnders star Kara Tointon is being lined up for the next series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, according to a report.
The actress, best known for her role as Walford's Dawn Swann, was axed (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a150773/tointon-groves-to-be-written-out-of-enders.html) from the BBC One soap in March this year. She will film her final scenes later this summer.
Tointon is now said to be keen to take part in ITV1's Celebrity following encouragement from her boyfriend Joe Swash, who won (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrity/a137669/joe-swash-wins-im-a-celebrity.html) last year's series.
A show insider told the Daily Star: "She's already got a huge fanbase who will love to be able to watch her out of character and being herself in the jungle camp.
"Kara's known for being really sweet and game for a laugh so we think she would be perfect on the show. She's a girly girl and will no doubt struggle with all the creepy-crawlies, but most of the celebrities on the show say that to begin with."
Tointon has also been linked (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/strictlycomedancing/a151283/enders-tointon-to-return-to-strictly.html) to the forthcoming seventh series of Strictly Come Dancing, which begins in the autumn.
I'M A Celeb bosses are hunting for new presenters for the Get Me Out of Here Now! spin-off after "losing" the usual trio of hosts.
Married couple Matt Willis and Emma Griffiths are stepping down - while Mark Durden-Smith has been axed.
Ex-model Emma, 33, and Matt, 26, fronted the ITV2 show live from Australia for two years.
But they are expecting their first child next week and no longer want to travel.
A Get Me Out Of Here Now! spokesman said: "Matt and Emma will be new parents and won't be going so viewers can expect some exciting new changes." The show's UK-based host Mark Durden-Smith, 40, is out of a job as part of the overhaul.
The source said: "With Matt and Emma going it's a chance to rip up the format and start again. Mark understands and has done a good job over the years."
New faces are now being sought for the spin-off, which airs nightly after the main ITV1 show. Ex-GMTV face Michael Underwood and his girlfriend Angellica Bell are in the frame.
Last year's stars David Van Day and Timmy Mallett have also been punted as a great comedy duo - provided they are banned from singing.
I'm A Celeb...kicks off in November for three weeks.
The Sun
Thank god Mark has been sacked. He does my nut in. He's so unfunny.
Lindsay Lohan may appear as a contestant on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, according to reports.
Both the UK and US versions of the reality show are reportedly interested in having the actress feature in their next series.
A source told the Sunday Mirror: "Lindsay's the perfect person for a reality show like I'm A Celeb. She's young, fallen and there's an element of tragedy in her life."
The insider added: "Most people who go on the show are in need of a healthy pay cheque and also want to raise their careers from the dead.
"Lindsay is perfect fodder for the show."

Snooker star Jimmy White is rumoured to have joined the lineup for this year's I'm A Celebrity....
According to The Sun, the 47-year-old sports star, who has the nickname 'The Whirlwind', will enter the Australian jungle in November.
"Jimmy is a proper character who has been around the block a few times," said a source. "He will be great value in the jungle as he tells it like it is and isn't afraid to wind people up."
White, who has an MBE, has reached six Snooker World Championship finals, but has never won the title.
Brian Blessed (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrity/a158149/brian-blessed-to-enter-jungle.html), Sam Fox (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrity/a167619/sam-fox-linked-to-im-a-celebrity.html), Chris Eubank and backpacker Jamie Neale have all been tipped to appear on the ITV1 reality show later this year.

REALITY TV addict Robbie Williams has revealed he wants to appear on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The singer, 35, is desperate to join the jungle camp and take on stomach-churning bushtucker trials.
He would join a line-up rumoured to include Oliver! star Mark Lester - said to be the dad of Michael Jackson's daughter Paris - footballer Jason Cundy and wife Lizzie, actor Brian Blessed and snooker legend Jimmy White.
Robbie, who wrote his own Big Brother blog and begged bosses not to scrap the show, said: "I really like I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! It'd be fun to go on."
The Angels star, who also told of his love for a documentary about US suburban housewives, added: "I like to see how these shows are constructed, filmed and edited."
He is so fascinated with fly-on-the-wall programmes, he even wants to make one himself - about girlfriend Ayda Field's mum Gwen.
UFO enthusiast Robbie bizarrely said Gwen could have been a sister of alien Mork from 1970s sitcom Mork & Mindy.
He said: "She's like Mork's sister. A really amazing lady. She lives in this beautiful, constructed world of her own. She's a documentary all by herself or better still a reality show that I want to make happen."
Robbie revealed he and US actress Ayda, 30, returned to Britain so any kids they had would not have an American accent.
The pair met in Los Angeles, but now share his £7million mansion in Wiltshire. He said: "I went to LA to find her. Eventually I got very nostalgic about England."
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/im_a__celebrity/2635509/Robbie-Williams-wants-to-be-on-Im-A-Celebrity.html
Robbie would be great viewing although he's maybe a little too well known and famous at the moment. When his career has dried up a bit further in ten years, that would be the right time to go on.

Janice Dickinson has told an American magazine that she will be hosting the next series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
Speaking to Life & Style, the former supermodel said that she is having "fun" working on the programme.
"I'm hosting an I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! UK edition that's like American Idol over there," she claimed. "I start filming in three weeks.
"It is the most fun job I've ever done. I love being in the great outdoors. After all the reality shows that I've done, it's the most fun show ever."
Dickinson added that she is the "queen of reality" as she has been involved in so many programmes.
"I've done five of the hottest reality shows in the world," she said. "I've done America's Next Top Model, Surreal Life, Janice Dickinson Modelling Agency. I did Beauty And The Geek, which is another UK show, and I've done three seasons on I'm A Celebrity.
"So that pretty much makes me the star and queen of reality."
Caroline Flack and Joe Swash have been confirmed as hosts of this year's I'm A Celebrity... spinoff. The show returns in November.

How can you compare the Australian jungle to the Kodak theatre in LA?
Former Westlife star Brian McFadden is rumoured to be in talks for this year's I'm A Celebrity.
According to the Daily Star, the singer, 29, will enter the jungle because he needs to earn money for a legal fight with ex-wife Kerry Katona over custody of their children.
"Brian lost his profile in the UK after leaving Westlife," said a source. "The jungle would be the perfect chance for a comeback.
"The show made Kerry a national treasure. Things haven't been too great lately but the show brought her back from obscurity. It could do the same for Brian."
McFadden currently lives in Australia with his fiancée Delta Goodrem. He is reportedly pursuing custody of his daughters Molly, 8, and Lily-Sue, 6, following allegations that Katona is suffering from drug addiction.
Other celebrities tipped to appear on the ITV1 reality show this year include WAGs Lizzie Cundy and Nicola T, snooker star Jimmy White, former glamour model Sam Fox and Brian Blessed.

Mitch Winehouse is reportedly in talks to appear on the next series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!.
Amy Winehouse's father is excited at the prospect of joining the show, the Daily Star claims.
"Mitch had an interview with ITV and he would absolutely love to go on the show," a source said. "He thinks it would be a great challenge and a lot of fun."
Meanwhile, ITV sources are said to have agreed that Winehouse would be a "fantastic addition" to the programme.
Winehouse, who is planning to release an album soon, is allegedly hoping that his appearance will raise his profile.
However, he will only go on the programme if it fits in with his work schedule and Amy is happy with it.
Other celebrities linked to the show include Brian McFadden, snooker player Jimmy White and model Sam Fox.

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! is reportedly to be hit by the credit crunch. Producers are facing cutbacks and may not have the funds to sign up well known stars.
A tighter budget on this year's show means that producers will not be able to sign stars like Star Trek's George Takei who was allegedly on a £200,000 contract, according to a newspaper report
It has also been rumoured that the producers are to axe expensive bushtucker trials and helicopter stunt, which were part of the previous year's tasks.
The celebrities will also fly out to Australia in economy class and not as previously in first or business.
ITV's director of television Peter Fincham commented: "I'm A Celebrity... will be as rich as ever but there is pressure on our budgets."
The reality show will return next month.
Last year's series was won by actor Joe Swash. The 27-year-old is best known for playing Mickey Miller in EastEnders.
Joe recently revealed that he is to take over the presenting duties on the forthcoming season of the reality TV show.
He said at the Inside Soap Awards: "I'm going to be doing presenting with Caroline Flack on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here Now!, so that should be good.
Does that mean no Ant and Dec??
He is obviously doing the job for a fraction that they would have to pay Ant and Dec, so it looks like it.

JUNGLE bosses plan to steam up our screens this winter with Playboy girl Bridget Marquardt.
The sexy model has been in talks with show bosses who are keen to grab her.
She caught the eye of producers after appearing in the US reality series Playboy Mansion: Girls Next Door.
Bridget was one of 83-year-old Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends but they have split up. The beauty, 35, certainly won’t be shy about showing off her 34D jungle coconuts – she’s done plenty of naked photo shoots.
The glamour model and actress, who has popped out in the cult TV show Entourage, has told pals she is up for some fun in the Aussie bush.
A pal said: “Bridget would love the challenge of the jungle and meeting new people. She’s a fun girl.”
Another beauty in the frame for the show is former Page 3 girl Samantha Fox, 43. I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!, hosted by TV duo Ant and Dec, returns next month.

NEW jungle host Caroline Flack is having hypnosis to overcome her fear of hairy spiders.
The sexy lass, 29, has admitted she signed to co-present the ITV2 show Get Me Out Of Here Now thinking she would be based in London. But she got a shock when she was told she would actually be fronting the programme out in Australia.
It kicks off next month with Caroline working alongside reigning jungle king Joe Swash, 27.
As a result she has had to have hypnotherapy because she is terrified of the huge spiders which crawl around the campsite Down Under.
Caroline said: “I can’t bear them. The hypnosis is meant to help me get over my fear.”

Ant and Dec are going to be bunkered when they arrive in Oz.
The I’m A Celeb duo love nothing more than relaxing with a round of golf.
But there won’t be a green in sight in Queensland, where they are heading for the new series of the ITV1 show.
The region on Australia’s north-east coast has been hit by severe drought and has been dry for three months.
If the rains don’t come soon many of the local golf courses will be out of bounds.
So Ant and Dec will have no chance of enjoying their favourite way to relax after the cameras have stopped rolling.
Insiders reckon the pair will not be pleased.
One source said: “Every year, when they go to the jungle, their favourite thing is playing a round after work.
“Apart from having a few beers it’s top of their ‘things to do’ list.
“They’re going to be gutted if the drought continues and the golf courses are closed.”
Ant, 33, and Dec, 34, are ready to fly out to Australia next week.
Screening of the new series is scheduled to start on Sunday November 15.
BOXING legend Joe Bugner is coming out of retirement for a new fight – with spiders and snakes.
The ex-international champion, 59, right, has been lined up for the new I’m A Celebrity. TV chiefs have high hopes that Bugner will doing and moved Down Under with his wife in 1986 where the pair opened a vineyard.

The award winning series is back with a brand new cast of celebrities preparing to leave their loved-ones and luxuries behind as they’re dumped in the middle of the Australian jungle with only the wildlife and each other for company.
Back for its ninth series, the toughest celebrity challenge on TV is set to return with a bang and this year our celebrities will face their toughest tasks as the boundaries are pushed to the limit.
Cut off from the outside world in one of the most hostile environments on Earth, the personalities have just basic food rations to survive on and will have to undergo petrifying and stomach-churning challenges to win supplies.
Their celebrity status will count for nothing as they battle it out to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.
This year the infamous Bushtucker Trials are set to be the most terrifying yet and there will be plenty of new surprises to keep the celebrities on their toes every step of the way.
Ant and Dec are back presenting live from the jungle and keeping viewers up to date with all the latest gossip and news. As always, the fate of the jungle VIPs rests firmly in the hands of the British public who will once again decide which celebrity will take on the dreaded Bushtucker Trials and who, ultimately, will win the coveted crown.
Executive producer Richard Cowles said: “We have a terrific bunch of celebrities this year who are going to be pushed to their limits from the moment they embark on their jungle experience. Each series we look at new ways to really challenge them and we have a number of tricks that will surprise and shock both the celebrities and the viewers at home.”
ITV2 returns with I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here Now! presented by Caroline Flack. Joining Caroline is the current King of The Jungle Joe Swash and comedian Russell Kane. The show will air on ITV2 after the ITV1 show.

oh no! i will be at work that sunday until 10 :(
TELLY'S Joe Swash was yesterday declared bankrupt - less than a year after the ex-EastEnder won I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The hunk, 27 - tipped to rake in a fortune when he was crowned king of the Aussie jungle last December - has been unable to pay £20,000 he owes the taxman.
His bankruptcy was made official at London's High Court of Justice - just as he jetted Down Under to be a guest on this year's I'm A Celeb.
Swash - boyfriend of Albert Square beauty Kara Tointon - had owed the Revenue a whopping £120,000.
The divorced dad of one managed to pay the bulk of it but taxmen got fed up with waiting for the rest.
The Official Receiver has now taken control of his assets.
Last night his agent Becca Barr insisted it was all a mix-up and Swash would be battling to get the ruling annulled. She said: "Joe has not been around to sort this out.
"The bankruptcy should never have gone through. He's not in financial difficulty - he's fine. There was a tax issue which will be resolved imminently. Everyone has to pay tax and Joe knows he is no exception."
Swash played cheeky Micky Miller in the BBC1 soap. Girlfriend Kara was his on-screen sister Dawn Swann.
He was axed from EastEnders in 2006 - but his flagging career looked to have been revived by his triumph on I'm A Celeb.
Following a string of TV appearances Swash moved into a £400,000 flat in Woodford Green, North London.
He is currently starring with Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson in the Living TV show Living With My Idol.
A court source said: "Joe has clearly made efforts to head off the bankruptcy but hasn't been able to find the full amount quickly enough.
"It means the Official Receiver is now in control of his money and his accounts will effectively be frozen.
"The bankruptcy is purely down to tax debts - there are no other creditors listed on the petition."

I wonder how he is going to be paid from ITV if he's been declared bankrupt.

so thats joe back in eastenders :rotfl:
I wonder how he is going to be paid from ITV if he's been declared bankrupt.
Will they deduct what he owes them direct from source? Lets hope there is a few more shows that will have him or Kara needs to help out with more lingerie adverts.

Possibly, but what will happen to the reminder of his wages after the 20k + any interest has been taken? I'm assuming ITV are paying him more £20 - 30k for doing the show but as he doesn't have control of his bank accounts, where is the money going?
I would think that his account will be 'unfrozen' again once IR have their money
does anyone know who's gunna be on it yet

What about the money he earns from hole in the wall and the dosh he will get paid for appearing in Panto that should pay off a huge chunk.
ORIGINAL Page 3 idol Samantha Fox has signed up for I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.
The ex-model, 43, will get paid £60,000 for her bid to become Queen of the Jungle when the show starts in nine days.
The deal was thrashed out with ITV by her lesbian partner and manager Myra Stratton.
A show insider said: "Sam is a Page 3 icon and will be the show's glamour girl.
"She's no pushover and will speak her mind. She'll be a strong contestant and viewers will be interested to see what she's up to."
Sam is the second star to sign up after snooker ace Jimmy White, and hopes it will lead to a career comeback.
But Ozzy Osbourne's son Jack shunned a £100,000 offer to take part.
Sam won The Sun's Page 3 Girl of the Year three years running in the '80s before launching a music career. Her single Touch Me went to No1 in 17 countries and No3 in the UK in 1986.
In her 20s she was engaged to Aussie conman Peter Foster.
Sam is now a gay icon after settling down with Myra, 50, whom she plans to wed.
She has previously appeared in reality shows The Club and Celebrity Wife Swap.
I'm A Celeb hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly flew out to Australia on Wednesday. The show starts on November 15.

They are the most desperate species of celebrities, willing to spend two weeks in the harsh environs of the Australian Jungle to resurrect their ailing careers.
But this year’s campers for the reality hit, I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! look dire enough to send the creepy crawlies back into hiding.
Former glamour girl Sam Fox, whose 1980s heyday has long since passed her by, will be flying out to Australia to appear on the ITV show next week.
Miss Fox, 43 – who this year announced her plans to have a civil partnership with her long-term girlfriend and manager Myra Stratton – caused controversy when she made her Page 3 debut aged 16, with her parents forced to sign a consent form.
She then launched a singing career and had a string of hits in the UK and across Europe in the 1990s.
The ex-model last appeared on our screens last year on Channel 4 reality show, Wife Swap, where she and her partner were featured alongside comedian Freddie Starr and his wife Donna.
Other names rumoured to be joining Miss Fox in the jungle when the series starts later this month are former footballer turned actor Vinnie Jones.
Meanwhile, Katie Price, formerly known as Jordan, has also been offered £450,000 up to become the first ever contestant to return to the I’m A Celebrity… jungle.
ITV chiefs believe the move would be 'ratings dynamite' and would give the show a massive publicity boost.
However, as it stands at the moment the model is due to be on assignment in America when I'm A Celebrity starts.
Her last appearance on the show in 2004 proved compelling viewing as the nation watched her growing closeness to pop star Peter Andre.
She was also famously seen parading around in a white bikini in the programme a tactic which has been aped by subsequent women on recent series.
The show which led to the pair becoming a couple and getting married also propelled them to new TV stardom.
Miss Price, 31, famously met Peter Andre in the third series of I'm A Celebrity when their flirting in the jungle gripped viewers.
After the show finished the pair became a couple and had their first child together in 2005, called Junior, in the same year they got married.
In 2007 she had her second child Princess with Andre.
But this year the married couple announced they were splitting after almost four years of marriage.
They have become the faces of ITV2 with their series proving to be one of its most watched programmes.
Despite splitting up they are still making shows for the channel separately and are on lucrative deals with the channel.
An insider said: 'It will at least be not on the first night and she will enter the jungle unannounced. It is very cheeky and very bold.
'This would be the first time ever someone has gone back in. I am sure the advantage of it is that it will keep her on the front page day after day for two-and-a-half weeks without actually having to do anything. And it is absolute ratings dynamite.'
However, a source close to the model said: “I don’t think she will be doing it, she is going to Los Angeles when the show starts – but never say never with Katie.”

I do believe it was actually Mylene Klass that did the white bikini, not Katie.

ANOTHER year, another disgusting new treat on I'm A Celebrity.
This year producers have come up with their grisliest Bushtucker Trial - eating a female kangaroo's private parts.
Bosses on the ITV show dreamed up the twisted treat after taking trials to a new low last year with a crocodile's naughty bits.
And the roo offers extra "buy one get one free" value during the credit crunch - because each female has TWO organs.
A show source said: "Every year we try to come up with something disgusting for the celebs that they're not expecting.
"Producers like the idea because it is a lot cheaper than some of the disgusting delicacies we've done.
"Plus, a female kangaroo has two organs so you get more for your money."

So to I, I mean its a week and I still have noe clue :(
I'M A Celebrity chiefs are hoping for vicious catfights in the jungle after they signed fiery ex-Mis-Teeq singer Sabrina Washington.
They want sparks to fly between the dark beauty and ex glamour girl Samantha Fox in ratings' winning bust-ups.
Both are known for having a short fuse - with Sabrina openly slating ex-bandmate Alesha Dixon's singing.
Lesbian Sam, 43, meanwhile went into a drunken rant on reality show The Club, and screamed at anther contestant.
"Obviously the producers want gripping telly and having two gorgeous girls at each other's throats would be a great crowd pleaser.
"After a few days of living rough and eating insects tempers will be frayed."
Last year Sabrina claimed her ex bandmate Alesha Dixon, 31, - now a judge on Strictly Come Dancing - attacked her singing.
The 31-year-old said: "A lot of people say Alesha should have stuck to MC-ing because her voice isn't that strong and I agree."
Also confirmed to be in the show - which kicks off on next Sunday and runs until the beginning of December - is snooker legend Jimmy White.
Busty model Jordan has been rumoured to be appearing but this was rubbished by a producer yesterday.
Ex-soccer hardman Vinnie Jones, ex-Corrie star Bruce Jones, WAG Lizzie Cundy and former EastEnder Robert Kazinsky are also in the frame.

Grieving Colin Hendry has signed up for I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! as he picks up the pieces after his wife’s death.
The former Scotland football captain – nicknamed Braveheart – was devastated by the loss of Denise, 43, in July after 20 years of marriage.
The jungle challenge will be his first major venture since he quit football management in January 2008 as Denise’s health failed.
Bosses have invited Colin to join the TV show and he has told friends he is ready for the Aussie adventure which starts on Sunday.
Denise spent the last 12 weeks of her life in intensive care after battling a post-operative infection.
It is thought the problem began with cosmetic surgery she had in 2002.
Former Blackburn Rovers star Colin, capped 51 times, said “the light had gone out” of his life. Colin, 43, has started rebuilding a career as he cares for their children, Rheagan, Kyle, Calum and Niamh, aged 19 to nine.
He started to do some freelance TV work when the jungle call came. A friend revealed Colin, former manager of Blackpool FC and Clyde FC, was shocked to get the invitation but, after consideration, he believed it could be the perfect tonic for him.
The source said: “In a way, it will be breaking the shackles of Colin’s mourning. It will be six weeks away in Australia but he is definitely up for it.
“TV chiefs see him as the big strapping guy who’ll do anything, eat anything, build anything – a real Braveheart character.
“There will no doubt be a lot of public sympathy for him after his terrible loss.
“Colin wouldn’t really want that. But he does fancy the challenge and people close to him reckon it could kickstart his life.”

I’M A Celebrity chiefs are sticking a “caravan of love” in the jungle to get temperatures and ratings soaring.
Two lucky stars will get the chance to cosy up for the night in an old motorhome in the Aussie bush.
They are eager for romance on the new TV series which starts this weekend. The last love story they had – between Marc Bannerman, 36, and Cerys Matthews, 40, back in 2007 – ended in tears.
And the romance between Jordan, 31, and Peter Andre, 36, which viewers saw unfold in 2004, ended in a bitter divorce.
An insider said: “Last year we had the jungle bus but it was a let down because no one had nookie in there, mainly because George Takei from Star Trek was always sleeping on the top deck.
“The camp is hardly the best place to get romantic with snakes, spiders and rats all over you, but a caravan with a bit of privacy might just do the trick.”
Stars in the series are rumoured to in-clude ex-Page Three girl Sam Fox, 43,
How Clean Is Your House star Kim Woodburn, 67, and ex-boxer Joe Bugner, 59.
Ex footballer turned film star Vinnie Jones, 43, sexy Strictly dancer Camilla Dallerup, 35 and ex EastEnder hunk Rob Kazinsky, 24, are also in the frame.
Peter Andre, 36, is said to have turned down £250,000, but his ex-wife, Kate Price, 31, is seriously considering the offer of a huge fee to return.

I hope Kim Woodburn goes in - she's hilarious. Not keen on Sam Fox - couldn't stand her in Wife Swap.
Every year I hope that Pat Cash will go in.
Sam Fox and Jordan in the jungle - could it hold that many tits :lol:
No line up has been announced by ITV yet. Closer to the date is their official line on twitter (http://twitter.com/imacelebrity)
TELLY'S camp makeover couple Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan have signed up for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The interior designers - "married" to each other and famed for their bitchiness - will jet out to join their fellow Bushtucker recruits Down Under today.
And just in case they are tempted to do a Sixty Minute Makeover on the celebs' jungle camp, The Sun can reveal How Clean Is Your House star Kim Woodburn will be on hand to keep it pristine.
A show source joked of the three newcomers: "Colin and Justin will be wanting the pillows puffed up at all times - while Kim will insist on everything being spotless."
The Scots designers - who also present Colin and Justin's Home Heist on UKTV Style - clinched a deal worth £65,000 each to appear on the three-week show.
Kim, 67 - who shot to fame with fellow cleaner Aggie MacKenzie by scrubbing viewers' filthy homes for TV - will get the same sum.
I'm A Celeb kicks off on Sunday on ITV1 - and other stars heading for the jungle include Page 3 legend Sam Fox, snooker's Jimmy White, former Mis-Teeq singer Sabrina Washington and Strictly Come Dancing's Camilla Dallerup.
McAllister, 41, and Ryan, 42, have been an item for 22 years and tied the knot in a civil partnership ceremony last year.
They are the second couple to appear on I'm A Celeb after Vic Reeves and wife Nancy Sorrell in 2004.
Excited show bosses are hoping for dust-ups over the state of the jungle camp.
The source said: "The celebs might think thanks to the latest three they'll have have somewhere nice to live.
"But the reality will be the opposite. Some of the best arguments come from silly things like the tidying up."

Life's been a bit of a trial for Katie Price since her marriage fell apart, so she’s well equipped to deal with the latest one – a Bushtucker Trial!
Yep, Jordan has been lured back to I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! tempted by a £450,000 cheque.
And her ex-hubby Peter Andre is not too happy about it...
We hear: “Pete is absolutely furious.
“Obviously, he hopes he’ll get more access to the kids over the New Year – for him this is a silver lining.
“But he feels like he’s been left in the dark about child care.”
Pete, who hopes to score a No.1 with new single Unconditional, gave show bosses the cold shoulder.
Our spy adds: “Pete turned the programme down – he thought going back on smacked slightly of desperation. And he is bemused by Katie’s decision to go back – it’s not as if she needs the money or the profile.
“Also he’s concerned about the timing of the show. Harvey has been extremely poorly and Katie will be away for a month. Who’s going to look after him?”
It is five years since love blossomed for Peter, 36, and Katie, 31, in the jungle. Maybe the mum-of-three, whose romance with cross-dressing cagefighter Alex Reid is said to be on the rocks, is hoping to find another Mr Right there.
Our spy says: “Katie decided to go for it. She loved it first time and figured it would give the public another chance to see the ‘real her’ – and an opportunity to claw back some good PR.
“She’ll give everything a go if it helps her look good in front of the public. Kangaroo testicles, crocodile penis – she’ll give it a whirl.” Er, lovely.
That is bound to impress the male celebs, who may include Jimmy White, Robert Kazinsky, Vinnie Jones and Bruce Jones.
It’s a jungle out there guys, let’s hope you’re up for it.

Ex-EastEnders star Rob Kazinsky has ruled out appearing on this year's I'm A Celebrity....
The soap actor, who played Sean Slater between 2006 and 2009, was linked to the ITV1 reality series by various tabloid newspapers earlier this week.
However, Kazinsky has dismissed the stories, writing on Twitter: "Me? I'm A Celeb? Am I balls! Where do they get this crap from?"
Earlier this month, the 25-year-old admitted that he is finding it tough to get TV work in the UK that is not "reality" or "celebrity" based.
"None of my actor friends are working, it's almost impossible. The work I've been doing has been more in other countries," he said.
I'm A Celebrity... returns for its ninth series on Sunday, November 15 on ITV1.

ive made up my mind already...kim woodburn to win :lol: i bet she brings her posh rubber gloves and her tickling stick:lol:
Kim Woodburn was the first star to arrive in Australia last night for I’m A Celebrity… And the How Clean Is Your House? presenter insisted she won’t be tidying up after everyone.
After touching down at Brisbane Airport, she said: “This is a holiday for me. I’m looking forward to experiencing Australia but I’m not going to need my Marigolds.”
And when asked whether she would be sharing Bushtucker Trials with co-star Aggie MacKenzie, Kim, 67, replied: “She can’t join me. She’s on holiday.”
The show airs on ITV1 on Sunday night.
From Daily Mirror
After her first time on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! she married Peter Andre following their romance in the jungle.
Now Katie Price is to return to the reality television camp in a desperate attempt to gain the upper hand in the bitter public relations battle over their split.
And the model will get paid five times more than the other contestants, commanding a £350,000 fee to become the first ever celebrity to go into the jungle twice.
Time apart: Katie, pictured at Heathrow airport, plans to head to the Australian bush in an attempt to resurrect her ailing reputation in I'm A Celebrity...
She will also arrive a week late to the show while the other celebrities, who will be paid around £65,000 each, will have to endure three tough weeks in camp.
Katie, 31, left Britain yesterday to fly to Los Angeles for work commitments on the first leg of her journey to Australia.
She is planning to appear on an American chat show and a pay a visit to the hairdressers to have her £500 extensions replaced before making her way Down Under.
A friend of one of the contestants, who asked not to be named, told The Sun newspaper: 'This really is taking the Mick. We were pushing for more cash but we were told things were tight this year. Now we know why.
'If ITV are looking for trouble in the jungle, they will certainly get it once she turns up.'
Price will be up against another ex-Page 3 model on the show, former 1980s Page 3 star Sam Fox, who is rumoured to be netting around £60,000 for the show.
Ex-footballer Colin Hendry, snooker player Jimmy ‘Whirlwind’ White, Mis-Teeq pop star Sabrina Washington and TV presenters Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan are also taking part.
Former Strictly Come Dancing dancer Camilla Dallerup, former Coronation Street actor Bruce Jones, ex-WAG Lizzie Cundy and former EastEnder Robert Kazinsky - who played Stacey's brother Sean in the soap - are also tipped to appear.
Interior design TV presenters Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan are renowned for their frequent bickering, fussiness and tantrums on screen and are expected to liven up the show.
The pair have also been a couple for 22 years and married in a civil partnership last year in London.
They are reportedly being paid £65,000 each to appear in the three-week show.
Last night, former EastEnder Lucy Benjamin, whose greatest claim to fame is shooting Phil Mitchell on EastEnders, and Kim Woodburn, from How Clean Is Your House?, were also both seen at the airport and are also believed to be flying out to Australia for the series.
I'M A CELEBRITY GET ME OUT OF HERE
Take two: Jordan was evicted from the jungle in 2004 when Kerry Katona won
But last night the war of words between Miss Price and Mr Andre's rival camps had already begun, with claims she was ignoring her three young children by flying to Australia for the show.
The trip comes as her severely disabled son Harvey is recovering from suspected swine flu.
Harvey was taken to hospital last week and will be cared for Katie's mother Amy Price, who will also help to look after the children Miss Price had with Mr Andre, Junior, four, and two-year-old Princess Tiáamii.
Explaining her decision, Miss Price, 31, told a friend: 'It will help me communicate with the public directly and not through third parties.
'Harvey is fine now, he had a temperature and we took him to hospital as a precaution, which you have to do with any disabled child.
'I love my children with all my heart and for anyone to say anything different is unfair.'
Lucy Benjamin
Former EastEnders star Lucy Benjamin spotted at Heathrow Airport bound on a flight to Australia via Singapore is also thought to be taking part in the show
But a source close to Mr Andre, 36, said: 'Peter is furious, he turned down the programme a few weeks ago and they were offering hundreds of thousands of pounds. He knew it was not right.
'But this time, Katie has gone too far - Peter feels that she has not adequately organised childcare.
'Her mother Amy will look after the children and Peter will help, but he feels that it was entirely inappropriate, especially as Harvey and Junior have been unwell.
'And what will happen if she falls for someone in the jungle again - why should her children be made to watch that?'
Miss Price will be the first contestant to re-enter the jungle, where she will be expected to camp without home comforts and take part in a series of challenges which usually involve swimming through infested rivers and eating horrible bugs.
The £350,000 Miss Price is to receive represents a record amount for any contestant.
ITV is formally announcing the full line-up for this year's series today. Ratings for the show are vital to its commercial future after being hit badly by a dramatic downturn in advertising.
A television source revealed: '[Katie] is ratings dynamite. She has always been hugely popular on ITV and she's seriously outspoken. And with the break-up of her marriage being so high profile, her appearance - and her comments - are sure to be explosive.'
Her last appearance on the show in 2004 proved compelling viewing as the nation watched her and Andre's growing friendship.
She paraded around the jungle in a white bikini, a fairly transparent tactic usually adopted by the curviest contestants.
She was voted out and arch-rival Kerry Katona went on to win that year.
After the show finished, she and Andre embarked on a real-life romance and married in 2005. Their first child, Junior, was born the same year. Their second child, Princess, was born in 2007.
Having caught the bug for reality television, the pair began to live their lives on screen and their fly-on-the-wall series, which followed their lives both in the UK and the U.S., became one of ITV2's most watched programmes.
This year, though, the couple announced they were splitting after almost four years of marriage, leading to a bitter public break-up.
It is not known whether she had to secure Andre's agreement to go back on the show or whether she plans to leave her three children with her cagefighter boyfriend Alex Reid.

I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! begins on Sunday at 9pm on ITV1.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/celebrity/article-1226612/Katie-Price-returns-jungle-second-stint-Im-A-Celebrity.html
Chef Gino D'Acampo and veteran actor George Hamilton have been spotted arriving in Australia ahead of the launch of series nine of I'm A Celebrity....
D'Acampo, 34, and Hamilton, 70, who could potentially be this year's oldest contestant, are the latest celebrities tipped to enter the jungle on Sunday. How Clean Is Your House star Kim Woodburn, snooker player Jimmy White and former Page 3 model Sam Fox are expected to join them on the ITV1 reality show.
Strictly Come Dancing's Camilla Dallerup and interior decorators Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan have also been linked to the show.

THIS year's crop of jungle celebs couldn't have looked more pleased with themselves as they arrived Down Under.
Former EastEnder Lucy Benjamin smiled for snappers as she stepped off the plane at Brisbane International Airport while How Clean Is Your House star Kim Woodburn pipped her to the post, being the first to arrive.
Katie-Price
Arriving in LA today ... Jordan
BIG
Telly makeover star Colin McAllister still managed to lark about with partner Justin Ryan, despite being bruised and bandaged up after tripping over the night before.
Movie star George Hamilton clasped his hands together as if he was praying - perhaps that glamour girls Sam Fox and Jordan wouldn't cause too many fights.
Snooker star Jimmy White, singer Sabrina Washington, former Hollyoaks star Stuart Manning, celeb chef Gino D'Acampo and Strictly Come Dancing's Camilla Dallerup will also star in the ITV1 show.
Jordan, 31, is getting FIVE times as much cash as the others - even though she's arriving in the jungle a week later.
She stepped off the plane at Los Angeles Airport where is spending a few days beforehand and will appear on a US TV show, Chelsea Lately.
Tongues are wagging that the other contestants are fuming about their raw deal, but they managed to keep a lid on it yesterday.

Sounds as if this is the line-up to start
Peter Andre is at the centre of a huge row with ITV after pulling out of I’m A Celebrity because of Jordan.
The singer was set to travel to Australia for three weeks as a behind-the-scenes reporter for This Morning.
But after discovering his ex-wife Katie Price was heading for the jungle, he told studio bosses it would be “totally improper” for him to report on the hit show.
The row erupted as the new line-up of so-called celebrities was announced. Jordan was not among them, but she’s expected to arrive in the jungle in around a week’s time as a late entry.
Pete has said he’ll now stay at home and look after the couple’s children, leaving TV executives desperately seeking a replacement.
A source said: “Pete was really looking forward to going back to the jungle but as soon as he found out that Katie was going to appear, he said there was no chance in hell he would go.
“Pete reckons there’s no way he could speculate on Katie’s antics and any outback flirtations in an unbiased way. This Morning executives are livid.”
The 36-year-old star will instead use the time to promote new single Unconditional and album Revelation, which has spent nine weeks in the Top 20.
I’m A Celebrity starts on Sunday night.

ITV has confirmed the eleven celebrities who will be taking part in this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The reality show, set in an Australian jungle, returns for a ninth series on Sunday evening at 9.00pm.
This year's show features ex-EastEnders and The Bill actress Lucy Benjamin, Hollyoaks' Stuart Manning and former Misteeq singer Sabrina Washington.
Eighties' Page Three icon Sam Fox, ex-Strictly dancer Camilla Dallerup and How Clean Is Your House star Kim Woodburn will also face the gruelling Bushtucker Trials.
Interior designers and real-life couple Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan are also heading to the jungle, alongside snooker ace Jimmy White and celebrity chef Gino D'Acampo.
Hollywood actor George Hamilton is the last of the celebrities who will be entering the show on day one.
Katie Price is expected to join later in the series after reports that she is getting five times as much as the other stars to take part.

I'M A Celebrity will put a male and female contestant on a special Love Island on the first night, The Sun can reveal.
While they rough it the others will drink champagne on a luxury yacht.
Producers wanted to send George Hamilton, 70, and Kim Woodburn, 67, but it looks unlikely after an older "guinea pig" couple found it was too DIFFICULT.
The celeb pair chosen will have to swim across shark-infested waters to the island, complete a tough task to win food for the night and then sleep under a makeshift canopy. Producers hope it will spark romance.
A source said: "It will be tough but it will also be quite romantic sleeping out under the stars.
"We wanted George and Kim but when we tried it with two older stand-ins, they said it was too tough for older people."
The celebs will be split into two teams. One will skydive into camp and the other will ride in on horseback through mountains and rivers.
In camp the two groups are expected to live separately at first.

FEARLESS Sun television columnist ALLY ROSS explores the jungle camp and discovers some surprises in store for the 11 celebs:
BOSSES of I'm a Celeb hope to find some real swingers in this series - by introducing a "love seat".
The swinging bench is positioned on the spot where Peter Andre and Jordan fell for each other in 2004.
Producers hope it will spark romance among this year's batch of celebs - and revealed it had already been "christened" by anonymous volunteers during the show's trial run.
Producer Marty Benson admitted: "We want canoodling. The swing offers them some privacy.
"Hopefully they'll talk about the other people in the camp. It's surrounded by cameras, so we'll capture everything they do on the swing.
"It's located where Peter Andre wrote Insania in series three. It seemed appropriate somehow."
The seat's action could see one of the celebs win a Jungle Book-style accolade as King of the Swingers.
Speaking of the volunteers who have already tried it out, Burton said: "Two were having fun. They probably would have gone even further if the trial had lasted longer."
Ally's tour of the camp included a walk across the bridge, a lie on a bed and a hunker-down by the fire. He even tested out a jungle loo - using his hat to shield his modesty.
The celebs arrive by parachute and horse at the spartan camp.
Gay designer Justin Ryan admitted: "It's been lovely so far. But now I'm experiencing a bit of terrification."
And perma-tanned film legend George Hamilton drawled: "I fear it's all about to become rather austere."

A ROMANCE is already under way between ex-Hollyoaks hunk Stuart Manning and singer Sabrina Washington.
The pair instantly hit it off and have been inseparable since parachuting into the jungle.
A well-placed insider said: “They have been very flirtatious since they first laid eyes on each other.
“Stuart is following Sabrina around like a lost puppy, although I don’t think she’s complaining. There was an instant chemistry.”
Before they met, both insisted they were not looking for love and former Mis-Teeq babe Sabrina, 31, declared: “I’m not looking for Tarzan. I’m single but I’m not expecting to meet anyone on the show. I don’t want to do a Jordan and Peter.”
Meanwhile Stuart, 29, who played Russ Owen in the soap, said: “There will be no jungle romance for me.”
The hunk once dated Lulu, 61, and added: “I don’t want to play out a romance on screen but you never know what might happen.”
As well as getting close to Sabrina, there was more good news for Stuart last night.
Bosses have doubled the swimsuit allowance for the women contestants this year to four.
It means Sabrina and babes Camilla Dallerup and Sam Fox are likely to be permanently clothed in bikinis.
Kim Woodburn, 67, from How Clean Is Your House? said she would don swimwear but promised: “I won’t be going topless. If I took my bra off I’d be knock-kneed!”
Katie Price's advisers fear that she is heading for a Jade Goody-style backlash on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, a report has claimed.
The glamour model has confirmed that she is making a return to the jungle following months of controversy surrounding her divorce from Peter Andre.
In 2007, late reality star Goody appeared on Celebrity Big Brother after originally finding fame on the Channel 4 programme's third series. She went on to spark a public outcry due to her treatment of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty in the house.
A source close to Price told the Daily Star Sunday: "This really is make or break time for her. No-one's sure how she's going to act or what she's going to say in the jungle. There's a fear she could implode if she uses the show to vent her fury at Pete.
"The worst scenario would be if she came out of the jungle with her career in tatters like Jade did after Celebrity Big Brother."
Price originally appeared on I'm A Celebrity... in 2004. The programme saw her meet Andre for the first time.

there is two reasons she is going in the jungle
1, she is getting half a million pounds for it
2, pete has landed a job with this morning he was heading for australia to be a reporter for the show and really looking forward to it, so now she is getting off on the fact that it has been ruined for him
Katie Price has claimed that she is returning to I'm A Celebrity... for "closure" on her "fairytale".
The glamour model also denied that her second stint in the Australian jungle has an "agenda".
"Why am I doing this again? Because I've got mad written across my forehead," she joked. "I think people will see that I'm really down to earth and grounded. People will see that I'm nowhere near a breakdown and that I'm not nuts.
"For the other people going in there, it's a gameshow. But for me, it's closure. I'm going back to a place where a big fairytale began for me. I met my husband in there and got two beautiful children out of that experience. Last time, my whole thing, from the moment I woke up was, 'Pete, Pete, Pete'."
She continued: "People see the real me [on my own] reality show, to be honest, but this is a different kind of show. This is putting you through the test of starving you, making you do challenges, you know, living in an extreme way. So it's completely different to the reality show. But like I say, I'll just be myself."
Price also insisted that she would not spend her time on the show discussing her ex-husband Peter Andre.
"My jungle experience will be different this time because there's no one that I'm love with. I'm not interested in talking about Pete in there," she said.
The 31-year-old finished fifth in the third series of the show in 2004.

Ohh, look at that.... a pig has just flown by :rolleyes:
Chef Gino D'Acampo and model Sam Fox won nine stars in the first bushtucker trial of the new series of I'm A Celebrity....
The duo took part in a challenge titled All Washed Up, which would determine the number of beds and meals the 11 celebrities would be given at their camp.
For the first part of the task, D'Acampo and Fox grabbed stars out of some wreckage on the beach, which was guarded by a crab and an octopus. The second task, which was called Smuggle, challenged the duo to hold a spider in their mouth for 30 seconds. Despite D'Acampo confessing to a fear of spiders, both contestants completed the task.
For their third challenge, they had to place their heads in urns, which were filled with yabbies and beach worms. They both completed it successfully.
In her final challenge, Fox had to to enter a cabin filled with crabs, eels and yabbies to find two stars. However, she failed, complaining that the water was "so dirty you can't see".
Gino's last task involved him wearing a helmet which was filled with spiders for 90 seconds. He endured the test and won the camp a further three stars. Afterwards, Ant & Dec awarded the duo a key and hammock to take back to their camp.
Viewers yesterday voted for TV presenter and cleaner Kim Woodburn to take part in the next busktucker trial The Dread Descent.
I'm A Celebrity... continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1.

Cleaner Kim Woodburn won 11 stars in tonight's Dreaded Descent bushtucker trial.
The How Clean Is Your House? star was locked in a perspex tomb that had been submerged under water for the challenge.
Woodburn had to collect 11 gold balls, which were dropped in the box alongside yabbies and cockroaches, to win her campmates meals.
After hearing about the task, she joked to presenters Ant and Dec: "Why aren't I at home in my lovely bed drinking my whisky?"
Woodburn credited her "big boobs" for her success in the challenge, admitting that they helped capture the balls.
After accidentally revealing her bra to the show's hosts, she told Dec: "I have something about me that young men ogle; get your eyes off my bosoms, young man."
I'm A Celebrity... continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1.

Katie Price swam through fish guts and cockroaches to collect treats for her I'm A Celebrity... campmates.
The glamour model returned to the ITV1 reality series earlier tonight and was forced to take a challenge before meeting her new co-stars.
In the task, Price had to swim underneath two logs and reach the end of a swamp filled with critters. Inside the water were 12 yellow balls, which she had to unclip and throw into a basket on the side. Each ball earned Price a treat to take with her into camp.
"I knew when I was walking through the jungle. I knew there was no way they were going to let me just walk into camp. I just knew there was going to be some kind of challenge," she said after collecting seven balls.
"I'm just pleased I got some [balls into the basket] to be honest. I didn't think I'd even get one at the start because I didn't want to get in the water. I saw a sign, looked to my right, saw water, balls in it and thought I've got to get in there. I'm not really any good with water and I can't tell you how much it stinks."
Price chose to take coffee, tea, chocolate, milk, sugar, cordial and chicken stock from a list of 12 treats.
In a final twist, it was revealed to Price that all the contestants would have to give up their luxury items to be given the treats. Deciding that the swap was a fair deal, she commented: "I'm going to take in the gifts, they're going to like that but I don't think they're going to love the fact they're going to have to give up their luxury items."

Camilla Dallerup has quit I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! after just a matter of days.
The Strictly Come Dancing star was struggling with exhaustion over the past few days and had been feeling unwell.
She has been replaced on the ITV1 show by former British heavyweight boxing champ Joe Bugner, who famously clashed with Muhammad Ali in the 1970s in a bid to win the world title but lost on points.
Earlier this week professional dancer Camilla had bemoaned the lack of nutrition in the Australian jungle camp, which she said was leaving her exhausted.
She said she was having difficulty summoning the energy to shower.
"It's not eating. Heat, I can deal with. I've got the highest metabolism of anyone I know. I feel useless being here so tired. You can't help anyone," she said.
During scenes screened on the show, Danish-born Camilla was seen sobbing, telling her fellow jungle dwellers: "I feel like I am struggling to speak properly. I don't feel like anything. I don't know what I need. I just find it really scary."
The rest of the Celebrity contestants rallied round her offering her sugar to boost her energy levels.
Camilla has also had difficulties sleeping and at one stage complained that she had muscle spasms in her hand.
Her departure will be seen in the show tonight (Wednesday November 18) as well as her replacement's arrival in camp.

Model Katie Price has walked out of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! after less than a week on the ITV show.
Viewers of the programme, which is set in the Australian jungle, have voted repeatedly for the former model to be put to the test in "bushtucker" trials.
On Sunday, when she was picked for another trial involving a snake pit, she said: "Someone else has to do it. I'm just not doing it anymore."
ITV announced her departure in a one-line message posted on its website.
"Katie Price has left the jungle," the message read.
Price, also known as glamour model Jordan, had begged viewers to stop nominating her for tasks.
But on hearing she had been chosen again, she said: "I suppose you get into a routine.
"The routine is I go out to work to bring back the food... I'm the breadwinner."
The 31-year-old returned to the Australian jungle last week, five years after first appearing on the programme.
She said she hoped it would bring "closure" to her relationship with ex-husband Peter Andre, with whom she became close while appearing on the show.

Katie Price has quit I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
According to The Sun, the glamour model told show bosses that she would leave the programme after being voted to do another bushtucker trial.
Price reportedly said: "I can't do another trial. I'm walking. There's only so much crap one person can take.
"The way I've been treated on the show by the viewers, you'd think I was the most hated woman in Britain."
She added: "It is getting beyond a joke. Everyone seems to hate me so much more than I thought.
"I said at the start that I came on the show for a bit of peace and quiet, to try and get my head together after the divorce. But now I'm feeling uncomfortable.''
An ITV source said: "Katie Price has left the show - as of today. We tried to talk her into staying but her mind was made up and she has left immediately."
The official I'm A Celeb... website confirmed: "Katie Price has left the jungle."
At the weekend, Price won (http://www.soapboards.co.uk/celebrity/news/a188079/katie-price-wins-eleven-stars-for-camp.html) 11 out of a possible 12 stars for the camp after completing the 'Carlamity' bushtucker trial.

JORDAN sensationally dumped lover Alex Reid yesterday, hours after quitting I'm A Celebrity.
The glamour model, 31, ditched the cross-dressing cagefighter after learning he had sold stories about proposing to her on TV - and celebrated with a jokey chorus of Queen's hit Another One Bites The Dust.
Jordan - real name Katie Price - was furious that Reid had sold stories about his plans to propose to her live on TV.
Earlier the model revealed how the camp reminded her of ex-husband Peter, 36. The pair famously met there in 2004 and went on to marry and have two kids.
But they divorced this year and no longer speak.
Katie said: "The whole place reminded me of Pete from morning till the moment I went to sleep. Every second it was Pete, Pete, Pete, Pete, Pete.
"Although they were amazing, happy memories, I'd lie there and think those good memories are way gone - but then I was still there with constant reminders of Pete.
Memories ... Katie explains why she quit jungle
REXIt was so ironic I had the same bed as last time. I'd wake in the mornings, look over and think, 'Peter's going to be there'.
Then I'd be, 'Course he's not going to be there - I'm not with Pete any more'. Pete helped me through it last time. This time no one was there to help. It was cruel to do it to myself, so I just didn't want to stay."
Katie flounced out of the Aussie jungle when she was chosen by viewers to endure a SEVENTH foul Bushtucker Trial.
The mum of three then rang her mother from the car to her hotel and was advised to dump Alex, 34.
After hanging up the phone she started singing the Queen song - as her fellow passengers laughed.
Katie then said as ITV cameras continued to film: "Never underestimate the Pricey, there goes another one - it's as easy as that for me.
"It's a shame because he was as horny as hell, and he's great in bed." The star then ordered her security not to let cross-dressing Alex near her for her entire Aussie stay.
The hardman is already Down Under hoping to pop the question, but has yet to see Katie. Yesterday he was being tipped to REPLACE her in the jungle. Meanwhile Jordan confirmed the split on last night's I'm A Celeb, saying: "I'm not with him, no.
Dumped ... fighter Alex
BIG PICTURES"I want to be on my own. I do not want a relationship. I cannot live my life by anyone else."
She also confessed she had been a "twit" since splitting from Peter in May. Jordan said: "The past seven months I've acted like a right twit. I'm sorry if I upset people. It made me reflect on things. I've come out of here a new person."
Jordan quit I'm A Celebrity early yesterday after viewers voted for her to perform a task that would see her suspended over 20 pythons.
The model, who later met 2008 winner and ITV2 presenter Joe Swash, told campmates: "If I thought about my reasons for being here - what are they?
"A cheque's always attractive but it's not as if I can't earn at home.

"I met a husband here, had kids and I've had so much *******. Coming back is like a big circle for me.
"I'm sorry for letting everyone down, but I can't continue this journey for personal reasons. I'll walk with my head between my toes in shame and I'll probably regret it."
Despite branding the experience "torture", she insisted she had enjoyed herself - but was "dying to see and speak to" her children.
Last night rumours were rife that Katie had planned to leave I'm A Celeb after a week to avoid the humiliation of being voted off.
ITV sources claim she may have to forfeit HALF her £350,000 fee. One said: "We paid Katie a king's ransom and feel short-changed."
YAWN YAWN YAWN
Perhaps this talentless Bimbo will realise that folk dont really give a toss about her
X Factor rejects John & Edward have reportedly been offered £50,000 to enter I'm A Celebrity....
According to The Sun, Louis Walsh has flown to Dublin to meet with the Grimes twins' parents and persuade them that entering the jungle will boost their sons' careers.
Walsh has been given a 5.30pm deadline by ITV to confirm the deal.
"ITV are determined to get the twins. A flight can be arranged in time so they could be in camp by this weekend," said a source. "It would be a nailed on ratings-winning coup if Louis manages to persuade them it's a good move for their career.
"Louis still believes ITV haven't offered enough money. But the twins were completely unknown a couple of months ago and everyone around them is saying they should make hay while the sun shines."
Simon Cowell has allegedly described it as a "great idea" for the brothers to head to Australia.
When asked about appearing on the show yesterday, Edward told GMTV: "I'm A Celebrity... - do we have that title? We're up for any challenge, we've got to think about it together and see if it's for us."

i thought jordan was discusting last night dumping her boyfriend live on telly whilst he is flying over! what a heartless moo
She didn't dump him live on TV.. did you see the Get me out of here Now.. she was talking to Michelle Heaton and she suggested that Katie dump him. She then spoke to him on the phone and dumped him then.. She only said Live on tv that she was single but she had dumped him just after she got out on the advice of her friend and her mother.
i actually felt sorry for her in the end. All her mouth, all her bravery after her split and i think it took going back in to the jungle for her to think oh no i effed up! I'm sure she will be back to her old ways as soon as possible but it would benice to think she will go home, dissappear for a few months, get her head sorted and come back as the Katie she was when she was with pete!
although i have read today she is going on holiday with michelle heaton, so much for missng her kids SO much
I think Jordan realised the public hate her (after getting picked for all the trials) and she knows she must change and she started by dumping cross dresser Alex - looks like lifes a drag for him :lol: really her major and only priority should be her kids
Are Jordan's eyebrows drawn on?

Katie Price has revealed that she has been released from her I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! contract and will be returning home.
The glamour model wrote on her Twitter page that she would now leave Australia and come back to the UK to be with her children.
Price said: "At last I got out my contract. I'm coming home to my children. Soooo excited."
While she was in the jungle, Price's children were reportedly being looked after by her ex-husband and their father Peter Andre.
Price walked out of I'm A Celebrity... at the weekend and broke up with her boyfriend Alex Reid hours later.

Hope Jimmy goes, he hasn't done anything.
Sam Fox has become the third celebrity to be voted out of the jungle.
After competing in the bottom three against Sabrina Washington and Jimmy White, Fox was tonight confirmed to have received the least number of public votes.
The former model greeted the news with a smile, before shouting: "I'm coming home, mum!"
Talking to hosts Ant and Dec, the 43-year-old revealed that she felt fine about leaving, saying: "I feel alright, yesterday was more shocking.
"Last night I went to bed feeling positive about seeing my family again... I've had 15 days and a great experience."
Speaking about Kim Woodburn, Fox added: "She's funny and larger-than-life but a lot of what you see is meant as a joke... but she always speaks her mind. She's a real character!"

I'm A Celebrity star George Hamilton has quit the show just five days before the final.
After Jordan and Camilla Dallerup, Hollywood star George Hamilton is the third person to quit I'm A Celebrity since it started two weeks ago.
Camilla Dallerup was the first to quit, after suffering poor health, and Jordan quit because she was missing her kids.
George could be seen in last night's show threatening to quit after the phonecall to his girlfriend.
However, producers of the show have also been worried about George's health due to the poor jungle diet.
He was exclusded from virtually all the bushtucker trials, and other jungle stars had been forced to help him walk around the camp.
The 70-year-old star will appear on tonight's I'm A Celebrity to talk about his decision to leave.
Fair play to him for last this long.. he is in ill health and did say he didn't want to win so it was best for him to leave..

I'm surprised they let him enter the competiton to begin with given the health problems he has.
If the producers knew he was in ill health and a diet of rice and beans would make him worse, they shouldn't have let him enter.

I'm A Celebrity's Joe Bugner has claimed his exit from the ITV reality show was fixed.
The boxing champion says that the producers came up with a task he would fail so his opponent Stuart Manning could continue his 'romance' with Sabrina Washington, reports The Sun.
Joe's departure from the programme came after he went head-to-head with Stuart in a challenge where he was required to read codes off jail cell bars with an ultra-violet torch.
The 59-year-old says he is certain this trial was devised because the programme-makers knew his failing eyesight meant that he had no chance of winning.
He told the paper: "I'm convinced it was a fix. In fact I know it. Do I think they wanted to keep Stuart because of his lovey-dovey friendship with Sabrina?
"Well, of course I do. It's obvious. It was rigged - absolutely."
However, ITV have insisted that the show is not fixed and a spokesperson said: "I can categorically tell you that Joe's eviction was not rigged."
Sour grapes :thumbsdow I'm failing to see the potential relationship between these two, they just seem like good friends.

Have a look at the thread entitled "A message from Abigail"
Gino D'Acampo and Stuart Manning have reportedly been charged with animal cruelty.
The News of the World claims that the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! contestants were arrested after leaving the show because of an incident in which they killed and ate a rat.
The Australian RSPCA, which has previously suggested that it would investigate the rat's death, asked ITV to hand over all their footage of the killing, including that which wasn't shown on television.
Show sources have also claimed that the rat might have been a tame animal introduced to the camp by producers.
"There were rats used for the bushtucker trials and they were as tame as hamsters," a source said. "They were used to human contact and not afraid like wild ones who would run away. The killing made for dramatic TV. But it's likely the animal was one of the trial rats."
Meanwhile, D'Acampo, who was previously jailed for two years after stealing guitars from Paul Young's home, was reportedly worried that he wouldn't be able to leave the country.
"Gino was detained so long his family, including his two young boys, had to travel back to the hotel without him," a source claimed. "He has previous convictions and is terrified of getting into more trouble with the authorities. But police say now he is free to go home."
ITV confirmed that the pair are being investigated, saying in a statement: "Australian RSPCA are currently looking into an incident in which a rat was killed in the camp."
D'Acampo and Manning have allegedly been told to appear in court on February 3. If sentenced, they could face up to three years in jail.

:(
I heard this on the 2am news and laughed. Aren't there more important animal welfare cases to persue in Australia?
There probably are, however, where do you start protecting? One animal, two, a hundred....
In this country, rats are vermin and the council kill them. It's perfectly legal to set human and inhumane traps for rats and mice. Smacking one over the head is no different to killing it in a trap.
If it was a rabbit or dog or other animal, I would be concerned. But my sympathies don't extend to vermin.

Itv should have either done more research of cut the rat killing and eating bit out of the show. I wouln't have eaten the rat for anything I would rather starve. Over here it's no problem killing verman but when your in another country you have to accept their laws and rules. I'm a celeb has been going long enough for itv to know what they can get away with for entertainment purposes. They have plenty of advisors on the show why didn't they intervene.
http://tv.sky.com/george-defends-rat-gate-gino
:lol: rat gate :rotfl:
surely ITV should be held accountable to leave people that hungry they would even consider eating a rat
Blooming 'eck. It is okay to eat kangeroo/ostrick/beef/lamb/pork/fish etc etc but not to eat RAT? Slugs/insects/eyeballs etc all okay, but not RAT?
Now, I wouldn't eat rat if you paid me, I would stick with the beans and lentils, but what is the point here?
Did they torture the rat before killing it?
If not, what is the problem?
