ITV I'm A Celebrity fans 'switch off' as Nigel Farage strips off for karaoke session
I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!'s Nigel Farage left his campmates floored as he unbuttoned his shirt and sang 'I'm Too Sexy' on Tuesday's episode
by Mark Jefferies · The MirrorI'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!'s Nigel Farage unbuttoned his shirt and sang 'I'm Too Sexy' as part of a night in the Jungle Arms on Tuesday's episode - however, the moves were not off the cuff and actually something he had staged before.
Sam Thompson, Josie Gibson and Nick Pickard completed secret missions to win the entire camp a night out at the pub. Josie shouted in excitement: "There’s pizza!", Sam exclaimed: "There’s chips! They’re real!" while Danielle Harold added: "Oh my gosh!" And toasting with a pale ale, Farage said: "The only appropriate toast is to us!"
Later, the karaoke came out and Marvin Humes and Sam sang JLS song Everybody In Love together. Fred Sirieix sang Don’t Worry, Be Happy, Tony Bellew sang Nat King Cole’s L-O-V-E and Josie sang Rapper’s Delight. But the biggest shock for the group was Farage singing Right Said Fred hit I’m Too Sexy and opening his shirt. He joked: "Follow that!"
Impressed by his routine, Tony said: "Nigel, well done!" with Marvin adding: "That is brilliant!" However, the scenes from Farage were perhaps not quite as original or interesting as they first seemed. In May, Right Said Fred appeared on Farage's show on GB News and in a pre-planned routine they played I'm Too Sexy and Farage took off his jacket and tie and then began unbuttoning his shirt in front of a live audience.
He has also had Right Said Fred on his TV show in the past and musician Richard and his bandmate brother Fred Fairbrass have spoken about their anti-coronavirus lockdown and vaccine stances. Taking to Twitter, now X, viewers were quick to react over the scenes. One wrote: "NIGEL PUT THAT SHIRT BACK ON! #ImACeleb," as a second added: "I could have gone my entire life without hearing Nigel sing that thank you very much #imaceleb." A third penned: "I will have nightmares of Nigel taking his shirt off."
It comes as earlier in the series, Danielle accidentally got a glimpse of Farage's bottom and described it as "the weirdest feeling". In the camp, Farage had a bath while Danielle walked past and caught sight of his bare bottom as he got out of the tub, saying to herself: "That’s a sight… for sore eyes!" Danielle then bumped into Josie, who also received quite the shock when she spotted a naked Farage in the jungle shower earlier in the week, as she said: "I just saw something I never thought I’d see: Nigel’s bare a**e!"
