We’re ridiculously excited for the imminent return of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! for a number of reasons. One being the fact that Ant McPartlin is definitely reuniting with his on-screen partner in crime Dec Donnelly for the new series (it was touch and go if he’d make it out to Australia after his stint in rehab over summer).
Another reason we absolutely lurrrve the show, is because we get to see a whole bunch of celebrities having to rough it in the jungle, living off the fruits of the land and sharing a campsite with a bunch of creepy crawlies and jungle critters. A far cry from their life of luxury back home.
But one celeb who definitely didn’t know what she was signing up for is Sinitta.
(PS check out these celebs you probs forgot went into the jungle)

The 80s popstar took part in the 11th series of the show back in 2011 and was thrown way out of her comfort zone.
It turns out Sinitta thought the whole show was fake, and that she’d be sleeping in a king size bed with 1000 thread count sheets at the Versace Hotel come nightfall.
Speaking on Lorraine, Sinitta explained she had no idea what she was letting herself in for, admitting she thought the celebs would be ‘looked after’ once the cameras stopped rolling.
“I thought it can’t be that bad, it’s a TV show - we’ll have beds. Versace hotel…” she told Lorraine Kelly.
When probed by Lorraine if she genuinely thought show bosses would but her up in a luxury hotel, Sinitta responded: “Well you just think they can’t really make you sleep out there or really starve you.”
“I knew the spiders and things would be real but I didn’t think it would be that kind of real,” she added.
Sinitta also admitted she thought food would be brought to the camp if the stars were hungry, ‘cause heaven forbid they’d let the celebs miss a meal.
“If things got really bad and we got really hungry then obviously won’t let celebrities starve, but they let you starve.”
Oh, Sinitta hun.
