A TikToker from Darwen is currently appearing on Australia's version of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

Max Balegde is no stranger to celebrity life and is often interviewing celebrities, appearing on red carpets and travelling across the world. Now, the social media influencer is being put through his paces as he appears on the gruelling reality show.

The Australian version of the programme, ironically is not set in Australia and instead, celebrities are sent to the jungle in South Africa. In a post to his 523,000 followers on Instagram, Max wrote: "I’m a (petrified little boy) celebrity get me out of here!

"If you’re reading this I’m already in South Africa taking part in I’m a celeb Australia, and I’ve probably cried several times. Being on this show is a dream come true and I can’t believe it’s actually happening!

"If you’re in Australia please watch along on @channel10au and 10 Play and VOTE for me. However if you can’t watch the show don’t worry we will be posting all of my jungle highlights on my socials. Wish me luck (I bloody need it)."

Max seems to have a lot of fans backing him too, with some in the comments supporting the social media star on his new endeavour. One person wrote: "The yay I screamed when I heard your voice."
