ITV I'm A Celebrity star Tulisa implies certain campmates are being 'fake' for the cameras
I'm A Celebrity....Get Me Out of Here! star Tulisa Contostavlos joined ITV presenter Lorraine Kelly on her programme after being the third campmate to leave the jungle
by Susan Knox · The MirrorThere was another departure on I'm A Celebrity 2024 on Monday night, as Tulisa Contostavlos left the jungle.
The shock news was announced by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly as the third campmate to be leaving the show this series, as eliminations began last week. Following Dean McCullough's elimination on Sunday night, days on from Loose Women's Jane Moore being voted out, another exit aired in the latest episode as Tulisa was given the boot from the jungle.
On her way out she told Ant and Dec it was "hard in there" as she found jungle life tough. She said it was a "whirlwind" and she couldn't believe what she'd achieved. "You're just going to be more grateful for everything. The food you eat, the people that you love... you don't realise how good you've got it," she said. She also said it was "testing" in there, but she stayed true to herself.
She also found the trials, especially the eating challenge, harder than she expected. As for her screams over the critters in camp, she'd hoped to keep her fears under wraps.
Appearing on ITV's Lorraine on Tuesday morning, Tulisa shared more details of her time in the I'm A Celebrity jungle as she hinted that some of the campmates were 'acting up for the cameras'.
When asked by Lorraine if she feels as though she's made friends for life in the jungle, Tulisa paused before she said: "I feel like I have with some of them. I think they will be friends for life. But a lot of people for the cameras were being very pally pally but the real test will be when everyone is out. Will they make the effort to send texts in the group chat? Will they do the four hour drives to see each other? We'll see."
Tulisa also revealed who she would like to win the 2024 series. The former N-Dubz singer said that Oti Mabuse is her number one after the pair grew close while in the jungle. "Oti is just a pure soul. She's amazing and people like her are hard to come by."
The singer also revealed that she was closest to Alan Halsall, Maura Higgins, and Melvin Odoom in the jungle and would love to see them and Oti in the final four.
On hearing Tulisa was out, fans admitted they weren't expecting it. One fan said: "So surprised that Tulisa is the one gone." Another commented: "Tulisa should've been a finalist," as a third added: "WHO THE ACTUAL F**K VOTED FOR TULISA."
"OMG nooooo not Tulisa!!!! She didn't get a proper chance. This makes me so sad," another added. "Tulisa was one of the strongest character's in the jungle this year. There are so many big personalities in there and I feel like we didn't get to see her shine. Such a shame," someone else echoed.
