I'm a Celeb viewers think Tulisa's first Bushtucker Trial was "unfair"
It was Tulisa Contostavlos' turn to do a Bushtucker Trial on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! tonight (November 27), and it was a real scream.
The former X Factor judge and N-Dubz/solo singer was voted to take part in Shock Around the Clock, and while she was as confident as her campmates at first, she was notably less so when she arrived at the Trial site.
Ant and Dec told her that she would be strapped into a rectangular box that would spin around a giant clock, and would have to answer 12 questions for each of 12 categories, with 12 stars up for grabs. Of course, there would be creepy crawlies involved.

Tulisa admitted her general knowledge wasn't that good, and hates cockroaches, but was determined to go through with it.
She failed her first category, naming everyone in camp (Melvin and Coleen) but won stars on the next two categories. The remaining categories were a mix of successes and failures, as Tulisa spent a lot of time trying to wipe the critters off and screaming her lungs out.
Afterwards, she called it "Hell on Earth" and stated that her mind goes black when she's in a stressful situation. "I'm really disappointed in myself, not good enough. Not good enough."

Back at camp, the campmates said they were proud of her managing to get five out of the 12 stars, especially after she explained what the Trial was.
"I can see she's beating herself up," Maura Higgins said in the Bush Telegraph. "What she told me, I couldn't do that."
Viewers at home agreed with Maura, stating that the Trial felt a little too hard, although people did feel like she should have been able to name all the people she has been living with for weeks.

Well to be fair Tulisa’s task was beyond hard— Claire Scott (@TheClaireScott) November 27, 2024
Asking Tulisa to name 144 random things on the spot covered in bugs while spinning is pretty hard #ImACeleb

As campmates ate their evening meal, a wallaby rump, Tulisa said it felt like a reminder of her failure to get more, but the rest of the celebs said they really enjoyed it.
At the end of the episode, Ant and Dec revealed that Danny, Dean, and Alan would be taking part in the next Trial, the Rank Bank. It will be a head-to-head(-to-head) Trial, with all the other campmates able to watch.
