All rumoured I'm A Celeb contestants for 2024 as Coleen Rooney is set to appear

How many of them will end up going into the jungle?

A supposed list of contestants who might be heading into the Australian jungle and showered with insects for our amusement has been drawn up, and there's some unlikely names on there.

It's getting to be that time of year again when the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! machine rumbles back into life, and there's a great deal of speculation over which celebrities will go into the jungle.

A number of outlets have been throwing out names for the famous faces that you might soon see adorned with creepy crawlies in the hopes of getting the camp a few nice meals.

Do take all of this with several pinches of salt, though; ITV will announce the full line-up in their own time.

They've told LADbible: "Any names suggested for I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! are just speculation."

Speculation has certainly been ramping up recently, with the Manchester Evening News throwing out a list of eight names which they say covers the celebrities most rumoured to be on I'm A Celeb next.

Ally McCoist

The eight names the MEN has mooted range through former footballers, singers, TV presenters and influencers.

They claim that former footballer Ally McCoist came close to joining the show a couple of years ago, and that his family 'have been telling him forever' that he'd sparkle on I'm A Celeb.

Is this going to be his year?

Jeremy Clarkson

You'd think he was busy enough running his farm and opening his pub, but the MEN claims that a spokesperson for betideas.com said going into the jungle 'looks a likely destination' for Clarkson.

He has been in jungles before, including in the Bolivia Special episode of Top Gear, where his testicles became submerged in a river, much to the amusement of his colleagues.

In more recent years, he has been on other ITV show Who Wants to be a Millionaire? as the presenter, and gets to be more involved with proceedings thanks to the 'ask the host' lifeline.

Tommy Fury

The MEN points the finger at Ladbrokes for this rumour, as the betting site apparently reckons the odds on reality TV bosses rushing towards either him or former partner Molly-Mae Hague are good.

The couple recently split up and Fury said that 'the truth will come out', having said that claims of him cheating are 'completely false'.

Phillip Schofield

This one seems a tad far-fetched, not least because he was just on a desert island for Channel 5 where he talked about an 'utter, utter betrayal'.

Having just come out of one jungle, would you expect him to be soon afterwards going into another or appearing on ITV again?

Alan Halsall

The odds on the Coronation Street star going into the jungle are apparently high, as he was supposed to be joining I'm A Celeb last year before he got seriously injured.

Halsall, who plays Tyrone Dobbs on Corrie, had been rumoured to join the 2023 edition of the show before he announced to fans that he'd suffered a pretty serious leg injury.

Whether he'd been preparing to head into the jungle or not before, what he needed was time to recover rather than competing in the Celebrity Cyclone.

Coleen Rooney

Meanwhile, The Sun on Sunday claims that the headline celebrity this year is going to be Coleen Rooney of 'Wagatha Christie' fame.

They claim she's a big fan of the show and will now be on it, and interestingly enough, her courtroom rival Rebekah Vardy was actually on the 2017 version of the show.

Once again, temper your expectations because at this point, according to ITV, it's all 'speculation'.

You'd hope they do have some celebrities already lined up, as I'm A Celeb 2024 starts airing next month, but they'll confirm it on their own timetable.

Giovanni Pernice

The Strictly Come Dancing star recently announced 'I'm back baby!' after an investigation into bullying allegations made against him had concluded.

He'd been accused by actor Amanda Abbington, and a BBC investigation upheld six of the claims against him while clearing him of a further 10.

As a result of the allegations and investigation, he's not currently on Strictly, meaning he might be free for I'm A Celeb duties.

Tulisa Contostavlos

The MEN says that the N-Dubz singer turned X-Factor judge may also be bound for the jungle.

All sorts of celebrities end up making their way there, so anything is possible, and nothing is to be taken for granted until you see them decked out in the gear with their name and number on the back.

GK Barry

A social media influencer who has recently appeared on Loose Women, she wouldn't be the first internet star to make the leap to I'm A Celeb.

Nella Rose did it last year and it's possible that the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! team have decided to go for another influencer.

Her appearance on Loose Women would mean she's no stranger to appearing on ITV.

LADbible has contacted the representatives of Coleen Rooney, Phillip Schofield, GK Barry and Tommy Fury for comment.
