Ant and Dec's Simon jungle wish

25-06-2007 12:00

Ant and Dec have asked TV executives to sign up Simon Cowell for the next series of 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Here'.

The TV presenting duo recently signed a new £40 million deal with ITV and joked that Cowell needs to raise his profile now that they are out-earning him.

Cowell's own deal with ITV sees him net £20 million.

Ant said: "I'll be having a word with the producers about getting Simon out to Australia this year for the show. He clearly needs to give his career a boost.

"Now we're getting paid more than him Simon needs to up his profile. He'd be great in the jungle. But I reckon the snakes would be more scared of him than he would be of them."

The pair's lucrative deal sees them host shows like 'PokerFace' and 'Saturday Night Takeaway', while Cowell appears as a judge on talent show 'The X Factor'.

He was also a judge on 'Britain's Got Talent', which was presented by the cheeky duo.
