WANNABE Jungle King Joe Swash was desperate for some monkey business with his real-life Jane—sultry glamour girl Natasha Mealey.
But the legendary EastEnders womaniser was left going ape for sex—forced to wait A MONTH before finally passing the red-hot pin-up’s bushtucker trial.
It was hard on the randy 26-year-old actor who once boasted he could bed THIRTY women a WEEK.
IT makes her flesh crawl, but brave WAG Carly Zucker is ready to munch bugs in bushtucker trials, declaring: "Bring it on! I’ll be petrified — but I’ll give it my best shot."
The 25-year-old model and personal trainer is clearly in great shape for I’m A Celebrity — and promises to raise temperatures in the jungle.
"I’ve got two bikinis to take into the jungle and I guess all bikinis are revealing," said Carly, fiancée of Chelsea ace Joe Cole.
SEXY Dani Behr has admitted she’ll find it hard to bear going without sex in the jungle.
"It’s like anything taken from you—you’re going to want it even more," teased Dani, who’s wed to American restaurateur Carl Harwin.
"I’ll survive it, but you’ll have to ask my husband if he’ll survive!"
BITCHY beauty Nicola McLean last night flashed her claws and savaged former jungle queen Kerry Katona.
"She’s a mess," said 25-year-old Nicola.
"I just can’t warm to her. "I can’t believe she’s managed to keep the Iceland television adverts."
BOOKIES are getting set for a £10-million reality telly betting bonanza over the next few weeks as the stars head into the jungle for I’m A Celeb...
Punters have been splashing loads of cash on bets for X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing – but things are set to go into overload as the stars head into the jungle.
So far ex EastEnder Joe Swash is the favourite to win at odds of 7/2.
They're not even in the jungle yet and WAG Nicola is getting dirty... offering lesbian Marina a "look and a feel!"
Nicola, 25, told us: "I’m engaged to be married, so I’m not interested in any guys. I like to have a look at girls, though."
It sounds like the competition for sexiest female camper will be a feisty one.

![]() | Joe Swash |
| Helium-voiced Londoner Joe Swash is sure to liven up the jungle - he's a regular on the capital's party circuit. The 26-year-old actor - who played EastEnders' Mickey Miller - has known fame from a young age, having starred in an Andrex commercial when he was just seven. | |
![]() | Simon Webbe |
| Prepare to swoon, ladies - ex-Blue heartthrob Simon is set to melt female hearts among the trees and greenery. Simon's girlfriend Layla Manoochechri is right to be concerned - what with Dani Behr, Carly Zucker and Esther Rantzen strolling around in their smalls. | |
![]() | Esther Rantzen |
| Crusading Esther is best known for presenting That's Life, a TV show that sent a generation of children running to do their homework. She has a toothy grin and a heart of gold. Undoubtedly the bookie's wild card choice for this year's I'm A Celeb... | |
![]() | Carly Zucker |
| Wag Carly is better known as Chelsea ace Joe Cole's missus. She's a fitness instructor so we know she's in good shape. | |
![]() | Nicola McLean |
|
Page 3 pin-up Nicola recently announced her engagement to Peterborough United star Tom Williams, so, technically, she's a WAG too. Expect her to compete for the 'totty' roll with Carly and Dani. | |
![]() | Martina Navratilova |
| Terrifying tennis ace Martina dominated the world's base lines in the 1980s, winning a staggering 18 grand slams. All sinew and muscle, she looks like she can handle herself in most situations. The jungle should be a breeze. | |
![]() | Brian Paddick |
| Count on former Met copper Brian to stir things up in the jungle this year. Outspoken Brian - who ran for London mayor - is no stranger to controversy and no stranger to speaking his mind. You have been warned, celebs. | |
![]() | Robert Kilroy-Silk |
| Talkshow king Robert will be keen to top up that dubious tan when he heads for the Aussie outback. The self-styled Solomon could prove useful in arbitrating the inevitable clashes between fellow celebs. | |
![]() | Dani Behr |
| Husky Dani set pulses racing as co-presenter of carcrash TV show The Word. She's been relatively off-radar since, so her appearance on our screens could herald quite a comeback. | |
![]() | George Takei |
| George who? He's the bloke off the original Star Trek series, who played Mr Sulu. Not Kirk, Spock or Scotty - the other one. Younger readers, and non-Trekkies, may know him better for his role as Kaito Nakamura on Heroes. Then again, maybe they won't. |
