CHEAT, FAKER & PHONEY

I’M A Celebrity diva Janice Dickinson was a Queen of the Jungle fake!

The gobby supermodel tried to fix the winning title for herself, the Daily Star Sunday can reveal.

And she also attempted to persuade her rivals to grab higher profiles on the ITV1 reality show.

We have rumbled how Janice, 52:

* HUNTED for the best spots in the rainforest where the lighting was more flattering.

* PLAYED UP to host Dec Donnelly because she knew it would boost her profile.

* WEPT crocodile tears over phobias knowing viewers would pick her for trials – guaranteeing her more airtime.

* COACHED the other celebs to boost their image – just like she was doing – by acting and posing when the cameras were trained on them.

The sensational revelations come from former jungle star and footballing legend Rodney Marsh, now a telly football pundit. In a bombshell interview yesterday – just hours after Janice came runner-up on the show – he branded her a “calculating and seasoned reality TV performer”who had played a bogus game right up to the end.

He confided: “Janice thought she’d nailed it and that she’d win the show.

“But Biggins beat her. He was genuine throughout and I’m very happy for him.”

Ex-Queens Park Rangers star Rodney, 63, said he first sussed out Janice when she started telling him how to act.

He revealed: “We became allies in camp and, from then on, she started trying to coach me with bits of advice.

“She would say things like, ‘If there is a close-up on you, look over your shoulder’ – because it makes a good shot.

“She said to me, ‘You’re terrific on camera but you should do this and that better’.

“After a while I began to realise the Janice I spent time with was not the same Janice people were probably seeing on TV and sending on Bushtucker Trials because they thought she was a frightened rabbit.

“That is so far from reality.”

Soon Rodney and Janice faced the crunch – literally.

He went on: “I had a nasty fall and felt my knee ligament go. There I was on the side of a hill taking deep breaths and trying to cope with the agony. The cameramen rushed down.

“Then, suddenly, Janice appeared behind me.

“After all the others had gone and left it to the paramedics to deal with me, Janice refused to leave.

“She stayed with me and positioned herself so the camera was on her and then she held my head on her stomach.

“Not long after, she leaned forward to whisper to me and I thought she was going to say something comforting.

“Instead, she said, ‘Wow, the lighting here is fantastic! Just tilt your chin up, Rodney. This will make fantastic television. We’ll look great!’

“I thought, ‘Are you having a laugh?’

“I was in agony and all she cared about were the camera angles.”

He added: “I cannot see Janice as real. The Janice on I’m A Celebrity is the epitome of what it takes to be a reality TV performer who is plotting to win.

“She talked to me about her family, about the death of her father and her tough upbringing. But viewers never got to see that.

“You got Jungle Janice – a woman who ran after Dec because she knew it made good TV, a woman who flirted with the cameramen because she was playing the game.

“Did you see the tears after her final Bushtucker Trial? Did you hear her say, ‘I’m so traumatised’?

“Everything is for the cameras. She didn’t miss a trick!

“She has been on lots of reality TV shows before so she knows what to do.

“She has done things just to get the limelight. And she is brilliant at it.”

Janice didn’t stick around after the end of the show.

She took a flight home to America just hours after Biggins, 58, took the title.
