I'm a Celebrity officially announces 2022 cast and here they are...

I'm a Celebrity officially kicks off this Sunday, November 6 on ITV, and now we know a pop legend will be joining stars from Loose Women, Coronation Street, Hollyoaks for the first series down under since 2019. Let's meet the celebrities who'll be put through their paces by Ant and Dec starting this weekend.

Name: Boy George

Age: 61

Claim to Fame: Pop legend from Culture Club

Why they're coming to the jungle: "I am bored of being iconic in the corner and if you want to compete in the world then being part of telly is part of that. This is the biggest show on TV and that is why I am doing it. And now I have made the decision, I don’t want to focus too much on what the experience might be like, but my intention is it is going to be amazing. It’s three weeks without make-up and three weeks is nothing. I have just done seven weeks on tour."

Name: Sue Cleaver

Age: 59

Claim to Fame: Actress who plays Eileen Grimshaw in Coronation Street

Why they're coming to the jungle: "Doing I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! is never really something I considered doing before. But the pandemic happened and then this year, I have just turned 59 and so I decided for my 59th, I was going to shake things up a bit. I realised I needed something that would challenge me and I thought this show would be good – and so that’s why I am doing it.”

Name: Owen Warner

Age: 23

Claim to Fame: Actor who plays Romeo Nightingale in Hollyoaks

Why they're coming to the jungle: "I am excited for people to get to know me as a person and not a character. People are so used to
seeing me recite lines that have been written for me, and most of them are not what I would say myself. My character has been written out whilst I take part in the programme. He has gone to Spain for a little bit."

Name: Scarlette Douglas

Age: 35

Claim to Fame: Former presenter of A Place in the Sun

Why they're coming to the jungle: "I have always worked hard but for whatever reason some people have doubted me.
And so, if I were to win this show, it would be for everyone who questioned me, tried to break me, or put me down. I don’t know why they do but I keep showing that I can make it and be better than anyone imagined. It’s so exciting to be part of this series and I was in shock when I got the call from ITV. This programme is always something I have wanted to do as I like to test myself. It’s the cherry on the icing on the cake."

Name: Mike Tindall

Age: 44

Claim to Fame: Former rugby player and current member of the UK royal family

Why they're coming to the jungle: "It is sinking in now that I am taking part. I am ready to rumble! I have been asked on numerous occasions to take part. The timing was right this year and Hask (James Haskell) did the show and he had been talking about it."

Name: Charlene White

Age: 42

Claim to Fame: ITV newsreader and current Loose Women panellist

Why they're coming to the jungle: "There aren’t that many opportunities to have when you get older and it will be nice to see if I can do this. I’ve given birth to two kids in quick succession, survived that and lived to tell the tale! So, I feel it’s now right to take on another big challenge."

Name: Chris Moyles

Age: 48

Claim to Fame: Presenter of The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X

Why they're coming to the jungle: "Some people say if something scares you, then do it, but I am a firm believer you shouldn’t scare yourself! I am a big fan of my own comfort zone, too. I am petrified of heights and getting into camp will be a massive challenge for me. Even that rickety rope bridge makes my heart start going. I have never jumped out of a plane or walked out on a plank on a high rise building before and I know I have got to suck it all up.

“In the past, I always said no to offers to take part. But this year, I didn’t say no immediately, and I ended up going to a meeting. Now I don’t know why I said yes. But I am a huge fan of the show and I know what I am letting myself in for! My friends who have done it before have told me I will have a great time."

Name: Jill Scott

Age: 35

Claim to Fame: Former England footballer

Why they're coming to the jungle: "It’s all a bit crazy at the minute but I am going with the flow and as soon as I was asked if I would like to take part, I said yes. It was an opportunity I couldn’t turn down. I don’t know what I have let myself in for but my family are huge fans of the show and as soon as I told my mum and sister I was doing it, they were so excited."

Name: Babatunde Aléshé

Age: 36

Claim to Fame: Actor and comedian

Why they're coming to the jungle: "I am going to see what happens but I know I will be doing a lot of screaming for sure! I am not looking forward to any trials but in terms of the one I am dreading the most, I saw one where someone was lying in a box and they put things into the box like snakes and mice. Now that would freak me out. I think I will lose it."

Name: Olivia Attwood

Age: 31

Claim to Fame: Reality star from Love Island and TOWIE

Why they're coming to the jungle: "It will also be nice to have a digital detox. I do a lot of social media and I spend a crazy amount of time on my phone. My phone causes me stress. We are all prisoners to our phones and so it will be so nice to have this time in life where you are digitally disconnected for three weeks. It’s going to be great to be completely immersed in the jungle environment and I am excited to see what I can do."
