Chaos as I’m A Celeb contestants busted with contraband at camp

Chaotic scenes unfold in the South African jungle in tonight’s episode, as the celebs are busted with banned items.

Chaos ensues on tonight’s episode of I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! when the contestants are busted with contraband in the South African jungle.

Producers caught wind that some of the famous faces had smuggled lollies into the camp via ziplock bags and, naturally, they were not happy.

An ultimatum letter is then issued to the campers, as read out loud by netball champ and contestant Liz Ellis: “You have either two minutes to consume or surrender every single item.”

Liz Ellis shared the ultimatum with her fellow campers after being busted with contraband.

Contestants smuggled the sweet treats into camp via ziplock bags.

Cue a feeding frenzy with the likes of reality stars Aesha Scott and Domenica Calarco, and athletes Harry Garside and Adam Cooney, wolfing down copious amounts of lollies rather than getting it confiscated.

“How much contraband did we bring?” said former Geordie Shore star Nathan Henry through a mouth full of lollies. “I feel like it’s Christmas.”

However, former The Project co-host Peter Helliar said it felt more like the day after Christmas.

“I had a feeling this moment was coming, but it has descended into a frenzy. It was like the Boxing Day sales,” he said in a video confessional.

Meanwhile, the feeding frenzy reminded fellow contestant Ian ‘Dicko’ Dickson of a scene from a nightclub.

“The first few days of this camp has at times resembled an inner city nightclub at three in the morning,” said the music mogul and former Australian Idol judge. “Everyone’s been going around saying, ‘Do you want some? Sprinkling a bit here. Having a dab in here. Drop a bit of that in there … Honestly, it’s been so sneaky … I’m just amazed that we were spotted.”

Ian ‘Dicko’ Dickinson said the feeding frenzy reminded him of a busy nightclub.

While viewers will have to wait until tonight’s episode to see if the campers are able to beat the two-minute deadline, one person who could’ve negotiated with producers is Kerri-Anne Kennerley.

The seasoned TV personality said it was her negotiating skills that allowed her to add a major clause in her contract. That is, unlike other contestants, she was allowed to bring makeup to camp – with no questions asked and zero consequences.

“They should just get better management. Not my problem,” she told news.com.au of her special treatment and her camp mates’ lack thereof.

I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! continues 7:30pm tonight on Ten.
