Strictly's Vincent Simone to enter I'm a Celebrity jungle
Vincent Simone and Annabel Giles are set to join the jungle campmates in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
The Strictly Come Dancing star and the TV host will appear in the ITV show on Friday, November 22, when they face a challenge to determine how many of their campmates will get to eat a meal.
"I love dancing so much, but when I got asked to take part in this show, I really wanted to do it. I am scared of anything. I am realising this more and more," said Vincent.
The 34-year-old dancer added that he wants to add some salsa to the jungle.
"I would like to teach the celebrities how to dance and inject some passion," he said.
Annabel, 54, is hoping to show 'posh' people in a better light when she enters the jungle.
"I would like to dispel the rumours that all posh people are like David Cameron and George Osborne. Hopefully I can restore a bit of popularity," she said.

She added: "It's a chance to have some me time. It is a weird way to have 'me' time but, actually, I do think it will be better than going to a health spa... as I couldn't bear lounging around in towelling dressing gowns. This will be exciting for me."
