It’s day one on I’m A Celeb… and my disgust is already boiling over like a dingo in a bubbling billabong!
As someone who has spent countless hours (and nights) glued to the television screen during the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! seasons, I must confess that my fascination with this show is borderline obsession. Having watched it evolve over the years, from a simple survival competition to an intricate mix of drama, humor, and suspense, I can’t help but be captivated by its allure.
Tonight’s special cocktail on the menu includes a blend of raw bull penis, a viscous portion of fish eyes, and a slice of fruit often referred to as vomit fruit for garnish. Would you prefer a sick bag with that? Indeed, it would be suitable. Additionally, a blindfold and earplugs might also be beneficial.
Indeed, the latest season of “I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” (airing on ITV1) has commenced, featuring the customary array of challenging food and drink options, less-known contestants who might make you question your television, and individuals with strong personalities that you may have encountered in passing. They’re now engaged in a struggle for dominance in the Australian wilderness, all vying to earn the title of reality TV monarch.
And as Coleen Rooney made her debut, Declan Donnelly couldn’t help but have a dig at Rebekah Vardy.
At the start of the show, Dec playfully commented, “It’s pleasant for her to encounter a trial not linked to Rebekah Vardy.” This remark alludes to Colleen’s well-known dispute with fellow WAG, Rebekah, which eventually led them both to court.
Initially, it appeared that Danny Jones, a member of McFly, justified why he is currently the bookmakers’ second choice to win, as his fellow contestants grimaced while downing this festival-like concoction often referred to as “testicle juice.” In contrast, Danny was the quickest celebrity to consume his drink and signal that he had finished by sticking out his tongue, suggesting he had consumed the entire stein of bovine pickle.
My feelings were reaching a boiling point, similar to a dingo near a simmering waterhole, but it seemed things would only get more intense on this show. Following the customary action-packed discussions with helicopters and parachutes, triumphant Danny was granted the privilege of choosing his partner for a competition to determine the leader of the camp first.
Initially, he chose Barry McGuigan, a previous boxing champion, as his partner – an option that appeared shrewd. After all, isn’t he a combatant by nature? However, the formidable duo encountered their initial challenge in the series and faced the first trial.
In the Mausoleum of Sorrow, each man faced off against 15 slippery snakes individually. Poor Danny was in such a precarious situation that he required urgent assistance from a snake handler on set when one of the reptiles found its way into his trousers.
Thus far, it’s been quite a challenging experience, but the signs point towards an exceptional TV series this year. To begin with, we have a strong cast lined up, featuring Strictly dancer Oti Mabuse, N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos, Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall, and DJ Melvin Odoom.
Moreover, Radio 1 DJ Dean McCullough (‘I’m trembling,’ he weakly exclaimed within the initial five minutes, making it intriguing) and podcaster GK Barry, who is also referred to as a ‘content creator’ – isn’t that true for all of us? (in a witty, slightly sarcastic tone)
Undoubtedly, I’m cheering for my friend Jane Moore, the dynamic and intelligent journalist who is not only a mainstay on Loose Women (ITV), but also an inspiring figure for women over 60 and Glenda readers everywhere. Keep shining, Jane! I aspire to be as courageous and radiant as you when I reach your age.
Without a doubt, all attention is on Coleen – noticeably emptying her canoe with a cup in haste at the start – who allegedly earns £1.5 million for her time on I’m A Celeb and views this as the initial move towards a shining television career. I have no reason to question it. On the very first night by the campfire, Coleen didn’t hesitate to share details about her first date with Wayne. They supposedly went to the movies together. ‘However,’ she mentioned, ‘we shared a kiss near the church beforehand.’ Oh my, I hope she means a religious building and isn’t using an uncommon northern term for a lower body part.
Certainly, Colleen isn’t the inaugural WAG on IAC. Instead, let me remind you of one of my favorite past WAGs – Carly Zucker from 2008. She was a personal trainer who was betrothed to millionaire English footballer Joe Cole of both England and Chelsea at that time.
During that period, the nation was struggling with an economic austerity, yet Carly continued to complain about her life in a large mansion and being wealthy. ‘It takes the entire day to clean it,’ she complained. ‘Even wealth can be overwhelming, which is why I feel stressed.’ If only someone had reminded her that the money belonged to Joe, not her.
Among some notable incidents on IAC throughout the years are Tony Blackburn forming a connection with a log during the initial series in 2002, Gillian McKeith feigning fainting in 2010, and Lady Colin Campbell consuming emu anuses in 2015 while expressing her frustration that people weren’t taking her seriously. “I was just there to provide amusement for the riffraff,” she lamented afterwards.
In 2013, TOWIE alum Joey Essex confessed that he was unaware of how to read a clock, and in 2014, respected news anchor Michael Buerk found himself under attack with cockroaches and had to wear a parrot costume.
In addition, Buerk showed dismay towards the limited understanding exhibited by some of his competitors within the camp. He exclaimed in astonishment upon being eliminated after 19 days, stating that “There were three individuals who had no idea what a pineapple was!
Occasionally, it’s a grueling ordeal just to observe this program; one can only imagine what it’s like for those living it. Yet, it’s the contestants who deliberately subject themselves to such hardships as part of their individual pursuit of recognition and an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to reveal their true selves to the audience.
Regardless of the hard work put in by others, it’s the quick-witted, riotously funny presenters Ant McPartlin and Dec who manage to turn this seemingly chaotic, nauseating carnival of creatures, goo and insects into an entertaining spectacle.
Despite other popular reality shows like Big Brother, The X Factor, and Strictly Come Dancing experiencing declines in viewership and appeal, IAC continues to captivate massive prime-time audiences season after season.
It’s quite puzzling why this show exists. It’s nothing more than empty, malicious, and highly controlling entertainment. The creators employ tactics reminiscent of the Gestapo and the NKVD, using disorientation techniques to isolate and confuse viewers.
Despite its enigmatic appeal, this annual event seems to captivate audiences as they eagerly anticipate the subtle and playful embarrassment of famous personalities, an attraction that remains undiminished over time.
Perhaps the public understand that the humiliation of celebrity nonentities is a public service in itself. Something to think about, as you watch Coleen chirping on about kissing her Wayne or a snake slithering into Danny Jones shorts.
