I’M A Celebrity… Get Me Out Here! will be back on ITV in just a few weeks time for series 19 and bosses are working hard to give us the ultimate star-studded line-up.
Presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly will be back with tons of fun, laughs and banter as we look forward to screams, crying and lots of Bushtucker Trials.
John Bercow
The former speaker – who stepped down from his role in the House of Commons yesterday – is rumoured to be heading into the jungle.
It has been reported Mr Bercow asked for £1million to appear on the show.
A source told the Daily Mirror: “John has priced himself out of the market by asking for £1million, far more than anyone’s ever been paid on the show.
“It’s a shame, he would have been an interesting addition to the jungle gathering, not least because of his extremely extensive vocabulary.
“He is a proper character with a long career in politics.
“He knows a lot of fascinating people, and plenty of their secrets. But perhaps he decided to demand a crazy fee because he just didn’t want to do it?
“He’s probably terrified of spiders. Or of eating kangaroo balls.”
Mr Bercow’s spokespeople have denied the rumours.
Katie Price
The former glamour model has admitted she would like to take part in I’m A Celebrity for a third time.
Katie, 41, has already appeared on the show twice and the last time she was on the programme she walked out.
Speaking in a video on her YouTube channel, she said: “I was thinking the other day about reality shows what ones I would want to do and stuff like that.
“I did I’m a Celebrity twice and the second time I walked out because I swore on my kids life that’s why I left because I couldn’t go back on it.
“The silly thing is the last challenge they wanted me to do was easy, so really I should have stayed in but I didn’t.”
She continued: “I would definitely do I’m A Celebrity again, 100 percent, third time lucky! Would they have me back in the jungle? Oh my God I could cause another stir!”
Olivia Atwood
Back in September, Olivia Atwood revealed that she was in talks to join the lineup for I’m A Celebrity.
The reality star opened up about her “ongoing” negotiations with the ITV winter show.
She said: “There have been conversations with I’m A Celebrity. It’s ongoing.
“It would be my dream to do the jungle. I’ve made no qualms about that. It’s such an iconic show.”
Olivia was a hit when she travelled Down Under to take part in I’m A Celeb Extra Camp and she admitted she caught the jungle fever during her visit.
Jenny Powell
TV presenter Jenny Powell is famous for her stints on ’80s with No Limits, Gimme 5 and Wheel of Fortune.
She most recently appeared on Channel 5’s Celebs On The Ranct time will tell if she has what it takes to hack it in the jungle.
Speaking to Closer magazine, she teased her potential appearance on the ITV show.
She explained: “I was asked to do I’m A Celeb! before and turned it down – however, I’d feel at home with it now.”
I’m A Celebrity 2019 confirmed line-up
Famous faces are being lined up to eat testicles, face emus and clean the dunny.
But who is set to take on the trials of the Aussie jungle and end up being the butt of Ant and Dec’s jokes?
Here’s who’s been confirmed so far:
Caitlyn Jenner
The Sun exclusively revealed Caitlyn Jenner will be flying to Australia to take part in this year’s I’m A Celeb — having commanded one of the biggest fees in its 19-year history.
The Sun understands that ITV bosses have forked out more for Caitlyn, the world’s most famous transgender woman, than anyone else this year — topping £500,000.
Caitlyn Jenner was married to Kim Kardashian’s mum Kris Jenner — and producers hope she will reveal secrets about them all.
An ITV source said: “She’s such a huge name and a great get for producers.
“ITV think she is one of their best ever signings. It’s a real bolt from the blue. They’ve asked her every year for a long time, but she finally felt the time was right.”
Ian Wright
England and Arsenal legend Ian Wright is entering the jungle.
The secret was let slip by last year’s I’m A Celebrity winner Harry Redknapp during a guest appearance at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham where he revealed that Ian was reportedly being paid £1m for taking part.
A fan in the audience tweeted Harry’s blunder, saying: “Just got home from seeing @Redknapp in Nottingham. Interestingly, he let slip that Ian Wright has been paid £1m to appear on this year’s #ImACeleb.”
The fan later told The Metro how Harry spilt the news.
He said: “He was asked why he went in the jungle and said, ‘Well they paid me half a million quid, so that helped. Ian Wright’s going in this year and they’re paying him a million’.”
Nadine Coyle
Nadine Coyle has also signed up for I’m a Celebrity.
The Sun exclusively revealed the news on October 7, 2019, saying producers hope she will blab about the band’s turbulent falling out after they split.
A source said: “Nadine is a big name and ITV was keen to get her.
Her link to Cheryl makes her an even more exciting prospect.
“It’s no secret there’s no love lost between them, and Nadine is refreshingly honest about what went on from her perspective. And I’m a Celebrity could well be the start of something big again for her.”
Andrew Whyment
Coronation Street star Andrew Whyment is also set to enter the jungle.
The move will see the actor, who plays Kirk Sutherland, swap the cobbles for the Australia bush.
A source said: “Producers are really pleased with the line-up so far, with just a couple of faces to unveil.
“There’s a chance they’ll add a couple more but in previous years they’ve stuck at ten with one or two to follow.
“They were chuffed to get Andrew as viewers have watched him on Coronation Street for the best part of two decades, yet know nothing about him away from Kirk.”
Jacqueline Jossa
Jacqueline Jossa is swapping the stage for the jungle as she stars in this year’s I’m A Celeb.
The EastEnders star was said to have been in talks to join Simon Cowell’s show X Factor: Celebrity, but her appearance was ruled out after negotiations fizzled out, according to Daily Star.
“As a result she had also sat down with ITV about the prospect of going on I’m A Celeb.
“As ever, line-ups aren’t locked in until closer the time but it is looking more than likely she will be heading Down Under.”
Kate Garraway
On October 18, 2019, The Sun exclusively revealed that Kate Garraway would be starring in this year’s I’m A Celeb.
The 52-year-old has committed to the ITV series, which begins next month, and has booked the time off work.
Kate remained coy about the news when quizzed by her GMB co-host Ben Shephard, saying of the rumours: “I heard that, I heard it was confirmed.”
Refusing to confirm or deny, Kate said: “Even if I was doing it, I couldn’t say I was doing it.
She added: “I don’t like heights. I don’t like the dark. I don’t like camping, even in a tent.”
So that’s who’s doing the Bushtucker Trials then!
James Haskell
Former rugby union player James Haskell is most famous for his time at Wasps FC and Northamption Saints.
The sports star has recently made the move into professional mixed martial arts and is currently signed to Bellator MMA, competing in the Heavyweight division.
He is married to fitness advocate Chloe Madeley, the daughter of presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan.
Roman Kemp
Roman currently presents a successful breakfast show on Capital FM between 6am-10am Monday to Friday and 6am-9am on Saturday mornings
His dad, Martin, was the bassist with 80s legends Spandau Ballet, while mum Shirlie Holliman was formerly a backing singer for George Michael’s Wham!.
Myles Stephenson
Myles makes up one quarter of boyband and X Factor 2017 winners Rak-Su.
The show made the star an instant heart-throb alongside Jamaal Shurland, Ashley Fongho and Mustafa Rahimtulla.
After finding love with Love Island star Gabby Allen, the pair have now parted ways.
