Chris Moyles is among the line up of famous faces entering the I'm a Celebrity jungle this Sunday.
The BBC radio DJ claims that he isn't afraid of facing snakes, rats and other critters on the ITV show hosted by Ant and Dec. When arriving in Australia, ready to isolate before entering the jungle, he said: "There's lots of everything in this country, like sport and beer and I am not scared of sport or beer. So I think I will be alright."
He will certainly be one to watch on the show, as he is joined by the likes of Love Island's Olivia Attwood and Tory politician Matt Hancock. The show is often memorable for controversial moments, so it is likely that Chris will fit right in.

He is known for blurting out controversial comments while on his radio shows. We take a look at the 48-year-old's career so far, as well as his life out of the lime light including his romances and impressive weight loss.
Career controversy
In 2002, the radio presenter made some inappropriate comments to a 16 year-old Charlotte Church, saying he wanted to "lead her through the forest of sexuality now she had reached 16". Watchdog, the Broadcasting Standards Commission, said the "explicit sexual content and humour had exceeded acceptable boundaries for the time of transmission".
Later, in 2006, he was hit with complaints on multiple occasions. In May, Chris was accused of homophobia.
He rejected a ringtone by saying on air "I don't want that one, it's gay." Complaints flooded in to the BBC, including from campaign group Stonewall, which said "Chris Moyles is not helping young LGBT people struggling to come out through his comments" and named him "bully of the year" at its annual awards.
Then in July, Chris was criticised by Ofcom for an incident in which he referred to female listeners as "dirty wh*res" for urinating in the shower.
In January 2008, the presenter sparked controversy when he boasted that he drank five pints of lager a day. Experts criticised him for glamourising binge drinking, but Radio 1 said his remarks were "just banter". In 2010, Chris launched a half-hour rant on air complaining that he had not been paid for two months, accusing BBC bosses of a "huge lack of respect" and a "massive FU to me"
'Power couple' love life
Chris is currently in a 'power couple' with his girlfriend Tiffany Austin. Tiffany is a successful art manager who has worked with many celebrities, such as Boy George, who will also be joining Chris in the Jungle.
Chris and Tiffany started dating in 2015. They met when he moved to LA and now she has moved to be with him.
Six stone weight loss and 'body dysmorphia'
The I'm a Celeb contestant impressed his fans when he decided to ditch his unhealthy lifestyle. Since then he has lost more than six stone.
The media personality recently admitted he struggles with maintaining his new slimline physique. Speaking to Ross Kemp on his podcast The Kempcast, Chris confessed he still suffers from body dysmorphia, despite having shrunk from 18 stone to 12 stone.
The comedian detailed his strict regimen of weighing himself daily and barely eating all day Monday-Friday, before enjoying himself at the weekends. He said: "Before lockdown, Monday, Wednesday, Friday I would do the show we would have a quick meeting... and then I'd get to the gym and I'd train 11-12 or 11-1, depending on how fat I was feeling. I'm feeling really fat at the moment!
"I'm fascinated by body dysmorphia because I really have an issue with body dysmorphia, which I think most people do. I've lost six stone from my worst weight when I was 18 stone.
"I know my body really well now, and I'm still learning. I don't have the metabolism of an 18-year-old girl or boy, I just don't."
He added: 'I will, and people don't believe me, but I weigh myself six days a week, and I know you shouldn't and I know it's not for everyone, but I do that so I can learn about how my body works.
"I will train Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and I will watch what I eat and I'll eat very little. I do intermittent fasting and I'll eat at 6.30PM or 7PM and I'll be fine. I need to do that from the weekends that I have."
