Strictly Come Dancing's Oti Mabuse would sign up for I'm a Celebrity

When asked whether she would consider I'm a Celebrity, Mabuse told RadioTimes.com in an exclusive interview: "I would."

"I enjoy the challenge. I'd get so competitive, wouldn't I? I'd want to do well," the former Strictly Come Dancing pro added, with her fellow Masked Dancer judge Davina McCall replying: "You would be so good!"

McCall continued: "But also I think you would get really hurt if you couldn't do something for your team."

Mabuse added: "Yeah, I'd want to help. I'd be like, 'Come on guys, let's do it.'"

Meanwhile, McCall said that she wouldn't be able to enter the jungle.

"We don't give the people that do I'm a Celeb enough credit. It's really, really tough. It's tough being away from people that you love, it's tough all the challenge, it's tough feeling like you're letting people down, the food."

She added: "It's really mentally and physically exhausting. Whoever wins... they deserve it, right? I love watching it but I couldn't do it."

ITV announced earlier this year that I'm a Celebrity would be returning to the Australian jungle after two years based in Wales due to the COVID pandemic.

The Masked Dancer airs on ITV at 6:30pm on Saturday 3rd September. Check out more of our Entertainment coverage or visit our TV Guide to see what's on tonight.
