Offical line-up revealed? Katie Price going back?
Quote:
Katie Price is facing an angry backlash from her fellow I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! contestants after it was revealed she will be earning £350,000 — more than five times as much as them.
The glamour model will also be arriving in the camp a week after the others, who are receiving around £65,000 each.
Price, 31, will be making her second appearance on the reality TV show, which begins its ninth series on Sunday.
She flew into Los Angeles this morning, where she plans to top up on Botox jabs and have her hair extensions done. She will head to the jungle Down Under next week.
There she will join former glamour model Sam Fox, 43, ex-EastEnder Lucy Benjamin, 39, TV makeover couple Colin McAllister, 41, and Justin Ryan, 42, snooker star Jimmy White, 47, former footballer Colin Hendry, 43, Strictly Come Dancing's Camilla Dallerup, 35, How Clean Is Your House? star Kim Woodburn, 67, and 31-year-old singer Sabrina Washington.
ITV bosses reportedly wanted to keep Price's appearance a secret from the other contestants until she arrived in the camp. But it has now been leaked and the celebrities are reportedly furious that Price, aka Jordan, will not only miss the first week of the show, but will also be receiving so much more money.
A friend of one of the contestants said: “This is really taking the mick. We were pushing for more cash but were told things were tight this year. Now we know why.
“If ITV are looking for real trouble in the jungle, they will certainly be getting it once Katie Price turns up.”
Price first appeared on the show in January 2004 where she met singer Peter Andre, 36, who she married in September that year. They had two children — son Junior, four, and two-year-old daughter Princess Tiáamii — but divorced in September.
Price will be in California three days before completing the rest of her journey to Australia.
