A diet of rice and beans can bring celebrities down, so it’s good news that a Stand-Up Comedian is joining the jungle when I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! premieres live on Sunday, 19 January.

This witty wisecracker is no stranger to encores, but will they be chanting for more when they’re faced with a plateful of critters? Here’s hoping this Stand-Up can chow down.

The Stand-Up Comedian joins a UK TikTok Star, an Influencer, Reality Royalty, a Hero, an Olympian, a TV Host, an Award-Winning Actress, a Footy Legend, a Comedy King, an AFL Star, a Reality Star and a Leading Man in the South African jungle.

Check out the clue below and keep your eyes peeled for more hints as we get closer to Sunday, 19 January.

Skye Wheatley won the 10th season of Channel 10‘s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, beating out fellow top three contestants Callum Hole and Tristan MacManus.

Wheatley is an influencer and finished third in season 11 of Big Brother Australia. During her time in camp, she never shied away from feeling the big feelings, crying, laughing, and singing her way through every mood.

Wheatley’s charity, Bully Zero, is Australia’s leading bullying prevention charity. It was begun by founder Ali Halkic after his son died by suicide after falling victim to cyberbullying. Bully Zero provides evidence-based education, advocacy, and support for all communities across Australia.

Season 10 saw Aussie darling Robert Irwin – a passionate conservationist, zookeeper, photographer, and son of Steve Irwin – join the show to co-host alongside Julia Morris.

Ahead of his debut, Irwin was named Australia’s most popular broadcast personality in the Australian Talent Index’s 2024 Top Talent Report – before the show had even aired.

Irwin, a relative newcomer to Aussie screens, took out the top broadcast talent spot, eclipsing the last report’s winner – comedian and TV personality Hamish Blake – in his debut appearance on the list.

Alongside his top broadcast position, Irwin was also voted number one broadcast talent by women and was considered the celebrity who gives the most back to the community, according to the Index.
