In the history of I'm A Celebrity, Myleene Klass's iconic shower moment will always be remembered. But for one of the campmates on the upcoming 2024 season, paying tribute to Myleene is out of the question. Tulisa, a 36-year-old singer who will be joining the show alongside famous names like Coleen Rooney and GK Barry, has made it clear that she's not interested in drawing attention to herself.
As the self-proclaimed "mummy of N-Dubz", Tulisa has packed three plain bikinis for her time in the jungle. She doesn't want to make headlines like Myleene did back in 2006 when she wore a white bikini while bathing. While Tulisa has no desire to follow in Myleene's footsteps, her fellow campmates Melvin Odoom and Danny Jones are excited about the infamous shower.
Melvin, who is 44 years old, couldn't contain his laughter when asked about the shower. He jokingly said that he hopes he'll look as good as his friend Marvin Humes, who was on the show last year and was the sixth star to be eliminated. On the other hand, Danny, who is 38 years old and a member of the band McFly, is determined to take a dip in the shower. He even said that he wants to look "sick" like Marvin did last year.
The shower scenes on I'm A Celebrity have received criticism over the years. Some have called them sexist and invasive, like Metro columnist and freelance journalist Emmie Harrison-West, who felt uncomfortable watching Myleene's shower scene. She felt that her privacy was taken away and that she was sexualized. Nicola Thorp, another Metro columnist, agrees that a bikini is not an invitation for perverts and that our bodies should be respected.
Last year, This Morning star Josie Gibson got quite a surprise when she saw Nigel Farage showering naked. But it turns out that showering in the nude is not allowed on the show, as former campmate Frankie Dettori revealed. The shower is far away from the camp and they were advised to keep their swimsuits on. Frankie even joked that he wouldn't spy on Nigel's butt.
After her time on I'm A Celebrity in 2006, Myleene auctioned off the white bikini she wore for charity, raising £7,500. She returned to the show in 2020, when it was filmed in a castle in Wales due to Covid. She shared on social media how the white bikini came to be in her possession. It was a last-minute purchase before she headed to the jungle, and it turned out to be the best $40 she ever spent, especially since it raised so much for charity.
As we wait for the upcoming season of I'm A Celebrity, set to air on Sunday on ITV and ITVX, it's clear that the shower scenes will continue to be a topic of discussion. But for the campmates, it's just another part of their experience in the jungle. And for Myleene, her white bikini will always be a memory of her time on the show.
