Lucy Benjamin Favourite To Win I'm A Celeb

The Offical I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! line-up as supplied by ITV is:

Camilla Dallerup, Colin McAllister, George Hamilton, Gino D'Acampo, Jimmy White, Justin Ryan, Kim Woodburn, Lucy Benjamin, Sabrina Washington, Sam Fox and Stuart Manning.

So that's eleven celebs. Erm, but what about the much heralded Katie Price, who hasn't joined the others as yet? Seems, or so the story goes, that she may be joining them after the first day - it's all a bit hush hush.

Katie is definitely not the other celebs favourite. There's resentment at what she is supposedly being paid. Colin and Justin have described her as 'unpleasant' and Camilla said that Katie could be a 'handful' - and she wasn't referring to her boobs.

Favourites to win the show, according to the betting odds, are Lucy Benjamin (that's her in her bikini enjoying Australia) and Jimmy White. Lucy has a decent fan base following her EastEnders stint.

So will we see the Ashes hero jumping out of a plane and into the jungle?"

Peter Andre Returning To I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here?

Is it a publicity stunt? Or perhaps there is an element of truth in the story that Peter Andre is hoping to return to this years I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.

It's reported that Peter is discussing the possibility of returning to I'm a Celebrity with the show's producers.

The Daily Star says, "Andre is hoping that returning to the place he fell in love will help him recover from his failed marriage and allow him move on."

But, there again, Peter has learned a lot about getting publicity from Katie - so it could simply be a stunt to help sales of his single Behind Closed Doors and his Revelationalbum, which is out on September 14th.

The Daily Mail today writes about Koo Stark not being included in the final 10. There headline asks: Was Koo too posh for the jungle grub-grabbers?

The grape vine is going mad guessing the I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here line up.

Yesterday we mentioned that Lisa Robertson was an I'm A Celeb possible contestant. The story now is that she has been axed, supposedly because of protests from local Australians. It also seems the bosses think that an ex vice girl could give the programme (and the area) a bad reputation, or something like that. You can read more about Lisa here

The producers supposedly still haven't finalised the line up and a few newer names have been thrown into the melting pot.

The general feeling is that the following may now well be in the line up: Marc Bannerman (ex Eastenders Gianni Di Marco), Janice Dickinson (ex super model), Rodney Marsh (ex England footballer and now football pundit), Anna Ryder Richardson (designer), Jason 'J' Brown (from the band 5ive) plus ones we have previously mentioned: Gemma Atkinson, Katie Hopkins, Malcolm McLaren, Fred (and now perhaps Richard as well) Fairbrass and Koo Stark.

The spies in Australia reckon that Marc Bannerman, Anna Ryder Richardson and Katie Hopkins are already in the country.

The photo below is of Janice Dickinson in her prime. Janice is known as the first supermodel and is now 52 (born February 15, 1955). She claims to have had over 1000 lovers including many celebs such as Warren Beatty, Mick Jagger, Bruce Willis, Jack Nicholson and so on and on.
