Georgina set for I'm A Celeb?Has Georgina Baillie been lined up to take part in the new series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!?
The burlesque dancer - who has been the centre of the row involving Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross after they rang her grandfather Andrew Sachs claiming Russell had slept with her - could appear in the show at the end of the first week, the Daily Express claims.
An ITV source told the newspaper: "We try to be as topical as possible and feature high-profile people who are in the news. This year Georgina is on our hot-list. Andrew Sachs' name was mentioned too, but it's thought Georgina would be a great signing.
"She would probably go in as a surprise addition to the camp towards the end of the first week.
"It's unsurprising her name came up at meetings. Georgina has proved she has the qualities to enthral the public. She's the most searched-for celebrity online right now. She would be a big hit on the show."
At the height of the phone-in scandal, Georgina had said she felt "totally and utterly exposed" from the media coverage, adding: "What's funny about humiliating a lovely old man who has never harmed anyone? My grandfather is really upset and says he wants the whole situation to end."
