From soap stars to olympic icons, who received the most money to appear on I'm a Celeb?
It's a given that some stars on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! have received higher fees than others, but we've narrowed the list down to the top ten highest-paid celebrities.
If the rumours are true, the below is truly surprising:
-
Sheryl Gascoigne – "£95,000"
Sheryl entered the jungle in 2010. Initially reported to have only been offered £25,000, she managed to negotiate her way to an almost six-figure sum. Combine this with the fact that she only lasted 12 days in the jungle, and this ex-wag made £8,000 a day during her time down under.
-
Rebekah Vardy – "£100,000"
Another footballer's wife, Rebekah Vardy, makes it into the top ten with a rumoured fee of £100,000 to enter the jungle last year.
-
Jimmy Bullard – "100,000"
In 2014 former Wigan Athletic, Hull City and Fulham midfielder James Bullard bagged another six-figure sum to enter the I'm a Celeb camp. Lucky for him, he was also the first to be evicted, so all in all not a bad deal for Jimmy.
-
Susannah Constantine – "£200,000"
One half of fashion guru duo Trinny and Susannah, Susannah Constantine reportedly received the impressive six-figure sum of £200,000 to go on I'm A Celebrity. Three years later she continued her reality TV stint by appearing on Strictly Come Dancing… and got eliminated first from the competition.
-
Jennie McAlpine – "£250,000"
As if we weren't in serious money territory already, Corrie's Jennie McAlpine was rumoured to have received a quarter of a million pounds to enter the outback. She did, however, warm our hearts on last year's show.
-
Spencer Matthews – "£300,000"
Well, not quite.
The then-Chelsea playboy was supposed to take a hefty £300,000 home after his appearance in the jungle. But he was removed after three days in the camp following a row about his use of steroids.
-
Katie Price – "£350,000"
Who could forget Katie Price and Peter Andre's romance on 2004's I'm a Celeb? But Katie actually received a much higher fee for her appearance in the jungle the second time around, in 2009.
-
Amir Khan – "£400,000"
Remember THAT dessert scandal? Yup, that is what we'll remember Amir Khan for on last year's I'm a Celebrity too. And now we'll also remember him for the ridiculous amount of money he received to appear on the show.
-
Harry Redknapp – "£500,000"
The footie manager has reportedly accepted an offer of half a million pounds to appear in this year's series. We're barely more than a week in, but he's already entertained us with stories of ignoring Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice, and who could forget the story of driving over his wife's foot?
-
Noel Edmonds – "£600,000"
Taking the crown for the highest reported fee in I'm a Celeb history is Noel Edmonds. Although he missed almost a week at the beginning of the show, he still reigns as king with his unbelievable fee of well over half a million pounds.
