The full lineup for this year’s series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! has been revealed.
The cast has begun arriving in Brisbane, Australia in recent days ahead of their upcoming jungle sojourn.
Ten celebrities will enter the jungle on day one and more are expected to follow later.
Star: Leading this year’s lineup of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is Boy George
Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have also landed in Down Under, marking the series’ first return to Australia since 2019.
This year’s lineup is led by vocalist Boy George, who took in the biggest payout in the show’s history for taking part.
MailOnline revealed that the Karma Chameleon hitmaker has been paid a payday of nearly $1 million to participate, with a source saying: “It’s been a long time since we had a major global star film and it will undoubtedly draw viewers.
“He’s a national treasure and we have no doubt viewers will make him king of the jungle.”
Contestant: Love Islander and former TOWIE star Olivia Attwood also signed up
Show: Hollyoaks Actor Owen Warner Heads into the Australian Jungle
The Culture Club musician can avoid many of the show’s eating challenges, which involve digesting various creepy critters while sticking to a vegan diet.
Olivia Attwood has already landed in Australia and was spotted at Brisbane airport for the past few days as she geared up for the jungle.
The beauty is no stranger to reality TV, having first found fame on Love Island in 2017 before appearing on TOWIE.
Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner has also joined the lineup this year, admitting that he is “always looking for romance.”
He told The Mirror: ‘My mother is the one who will miss me. I’m single and ready for the jungle!’
Happy: Charlene White has also signed up for the show, swapping her regular seat on the Loose Women panel for the jungle
‘I’m always looking for romance, but I don’t go into that specifically. I will miss football and family the most.”
Owen was previously in a relationship with Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry, but the couple split last summer after he claimed he allegedly messaged glamor model Apollonia Llewellyn, begging to meet up.
Charlene White has also signed up for the show, swapping her regular place on the Loose Women panel for the jungle.
A source told The Sun that The Sun bosses hope she gives her fellow camp mates a chance: “She has strong opinions, but she’s very pretty and will come in handy around the Australian campfire.
Trendy: Chris Moyles, who was rumored to be a member of the lineup, kept it casual in a navy blue bomber jacket and jeans when he arrived in Australia
Look who it is! Retired English star Jill Scott was spotted arriving in Australia as part of the lineup
“They hope that her journalism background will allow her to have some enlightening conversations with her camp mates, which shouldn’t be difficult given the people she’ll be sleeping next to in bunk beds.”
Chris Moyles was one of the first spotted stars to arrive in Australia for the series, and the radio DJ would have been at the top of the producers’ wish list for several years.
About the show, Chris told The Sun: “I have absolutely no idea what my family and friends would think if I did a show like I’m A Celebrity.
‘I never asked them. But I think they’d be a lot more nervous if I did the Antiques Roadshow. It should be fun, fingers crossed anyway.’
Join the cast! Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver was the third star to land in Australia ahead of the upcoming season of I’m A Celebrity
Retired English star Jill was also spotted arriving in Australia after being part of the rumor thread.
Despite the long flight, the former lioness, who retired in August after the team’s historic Euros win, was cheerful as she strolled through the airport to her hotel.
The Lionesses made history this summer as they became the first England side to win a major trophy since the Three Lions won the World Cup in 1966, and a record crowd at Wembley saw Chloe Kelly score the winning goal.
Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver also signed up for the show and was the third star to be spotted at the airport on Wednesday.
Exciting: Babatunde Aleshe has reportedly signed up for the upcoming series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
She seemed relaxed as she walked through the terminal to her next destination, being greeted by the press when she landed.
Comedian Babatunde Aleshe has also reportedly joined the lineup.
Bosses are said to be “very excited” to get Babatunde involved after being impressed by his funny one-liners when he appeared on Celebrity Gogglebox with his friend Mo Gilligan.
Babatunde toured Britain with stand-up comedy and won Best Newcomer at the Black Entertainment Comedy Awards.
Exciting: Scarlette Douglas also reportedly plans to make her mark on the jungle this year
Meanwhile, Scarlette Douglas would reportedly be making her mark on the jungle this year as well.
Bosses reportedly signed up the TV host and real estate guru known for starring in A Place In The Sun.
Rounding out the ten who will be entering the jungle on day one is former rugby player Mike Tindall.

The former England player, who is married to King Charles’ niece Zara, will reportedly become the first royal on prime-time reality TV.
A source said: ‘He will certainly be discreet, but his sheer presence means this series will be an absolute must-see.’
Meanwhile, comedian Seann Walsh has also been reported to be a contestant on this year’s show, but according to The Sun, he will be heading into the jungle at a later date.
The comic is known to be embroiled in controversy when he kissed his professional dance partner Katya Jones on Strictly Come Dancing while she was married to fellow dancer Neil Jones.
