The excitement is already building for the new series of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! Australia, which will air on Channel 10 on Sunday.
Hosts Julia Morris and Robert Irwin have been teasing the celebrity line-up for the show for days and have now dropped another big hint about the cast.
They have announced that they want to bring one member of KIIS FM The pickup the Time team rides into the jungle with them, building excitement for Sunday’s launch show.
The pair made the surprising revelation during Monday’s episode of the hit radio show, leaving hosts – Brittany Hockley, Laura Byrne and Mitch Churri – in shock.
Each trio will compete in a competition played on air to decide which of them will join the cast of the reality show.

“Robert and I were talking about it this afternoon,” Julia teased during the segment.
“We were like, we’ve officially signed that we’re not leaving Australia without a person from The Pick Up.
“We don’t want to be the ones to decide, but I want one of you to come with us.”
Initially, all three Pick Up stars were in disbelief at the announcement, with Britney, 36, suggesting the ‘offer’ was a stunt.
But the 20-year-old I’m A Celebrity host assured radio stars it was no joke.

“This is legit, one of you is coming,” he added, as Laura, 37, shared her reluctance to participate.
‘Has anyone spoken to my husband before? Because that would definitely exclude me! I have children!’, she complained.
Meanwhile, excited fans took to The PickUp’s social media to have their say on who they think will end up on the survival show.
Most followers seemed to agree that Brittany would head into the jungle.
“It’s Brittany!” posted one fan, who added that pre-publicity for I’m a Celebrity already hinted that it was a former Bachelor star.
Fans took to social media to share their thoughts on who will be heading into the jungle.
The fan added, “Their clue was ‘radio queen known for rocky romances.’
“Yes!” another follower wrote.
“Laura, take Laura, she won’t survive, ha ha,” another fan posted.
It comes after rumors that Candice Warner, 39, will join the cast of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here.
The PickUp presenter Laura Byrne seemed reluctant to join the cast.
The former Ironwoman was turned away at Sydney airport on Monday after forgetting to bring her passport.
Reports indicate that Candice accidentally took her daughter’s passport instead of her own.
