The I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! lineup is shaping up - but they aren't all going to be paid equally. Indeed, one of the rumoured contestants will be getting more than anyone else has ever earned, according to reports.

Coleen, who recently made headlines following the Wagatha Christie trial, is set to join this year's line-up. Reports suggest that the mother of four, married to Wayne Rooney, could earn over Nigel Farage's staggering £1.5m from last year.

That means if she lasts every day of the three weeks, she will be earning £70,000-a-day. That puts even Wayne Rooney's Manchester United wages to shame!

All the McFly guys are gym fanatics and Danny in particular has a great physique - which he's bound to show off in the jungle."
