I’m A Celeb 2011: Fatima and Antony are out! Mark Wright and Dougie Poynter battle it out for King of the jungle!

Plus James ‘Arg’ Argent on Mark’s pulling power


Last night, Antony Cotton and Fatima Whitbread left the I’m A Celeb jungle, meaning that in tonight’s final, either Mark Wright or Dougie Poynter will walk away King of the jungle.

I’m a bit gutted that Antony left, because I had wanted him to win, but – and as much as I like Dougie – I’d now like Mark to win.

Who will you be voting for?

During her interview after leaving camp, Fatima was asked about the rivalry and rows that had sprung up between her and Antony, to which she said, “We are all different characters and I speak my mind.

“Antony is a good man but sometimes he would skive a bit.”

And during his interview, Antony said, “I am gutted I didn’t make it to the end, but I did what I could do.

“I am amazed that I lasted this long. I’ve loved it.”

It seems that Fatima has already got her next project lined up though – she and Crissy Rock are reportedly going to team up to produce a fitness DVD.

Crissy told the Daily Star, “I’ve lost one-and-a-half stone in the jungle.

“I want to do a fitness DVD now, me and Fatima. Did you see her lifting trees?

“I thought she was tossing the caber.”

I’m sure Fatima’s equipped to make a DVD like that, but Crissy? Well, yes, she’s lost weight, which is great, but that’s because they’ve lived on next to nothing in there!

It’d be rather a short DVD if Crissy simply said, “Go camping and eat just rice and beans. You will lose weight.”

However, good luck to ‘em if they do bring one out!

In other news, Mark Wright’s best mate and TOWIE co-star James ‘Arg’ Argent, reckons there isn’t a woman alive who can resist Mark’s chat up lines.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror, Arg said of Mark’s romance with Emily Scott, “I knew the second Emily walked in he’d try and charm her.

“I could see it in his eyes. He had this grin which comes out when he’s about to start flirting.

“From the minute I met him he’s always been the same – cocky, confident, good-looking and a major hit with the ladies.

“He just never fails, he’s never been turned down. His routine would be exactly the same with any girl he wanted to charm – he’s never intimidated.

“It wouldn’t matter whether it was Eva Mendes who had walked into the jungle, Mark doesn’t get intimidated.

“If Kate Middleton walked into a room, he’d try to pull her from Prince William.

“When he first started chatting to Emily I knew where things were going.

“I can tell how much he likes her from the way he was talking to her and from his body language.”

And when asked if he thought Mark had planned on finding love in the jungle, Arg said, “It probably wasn’t his plan but you never know. You can fall for someone overnight.”

Also yesterday, the Daily Mail reports that Mark ended up in tears as he received a letter from home which read…

‘We are so proud of you and everyone is missing you and sending their love and kisses,’ they wrote.

‘You have done everything that we hoped you would; you are a true gentleman and a courageous and fun-loving boy.

‘We are all willing you to win but you are already a winner in our eyes. Everyone is voting for you at home and so many are saying that you have surprised them and that they feel they are seeing the real Mark.

‘We miss you and love. TEAM MARK! TEAM MARK!’

Aww bless him!

Don’t forget to let me know who you want to win, and call back tomorrow for details of tonight’s finale.
