Ant and Dec are “gutted” Boy George has been booted out of 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!'.
Ant and Dec are 'gutted' at Boy George's jungle exit
The TV presenters, both 47, are sad to lose the 61-year-old pop icon from camp, after he became the fourth star booted from the jungle when he finished with the lowest amount of votes on the ITV reality show on Tuesday night (22.11.22).
Speaking in an Instagram live after the results on Tuesday, Ant said: "What a goddamn shame, I really enjoyed Boy George in there, I loved him. I thought he was really good fun.
"It is easy to say he stirs things up but at least he does stuff down there. He is a bit controversial, but at least he had a word about people and he made me laugh. No one is on my wavelength."
Ant then yelled into the camera: "What were you thinking man! What were you thinking, why did you do that, it is all your fault. I liked Boy George."
Dec added: "He was at the centre of a lot of the fun and conversation. I loved his and Seann's conversation. I am gutted."
The ‘Karma Chameleon’ hitmaker - whose real name is George O’Dowd - admitted he was “sort of ready” to depart the star-studded camp.
The star - who previously said he was convinced by the co-hosts to take part in 'I'm A Celebrity' after appearing on ‘Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway’ - said: "I am sort of ready, I have had an amazing time and done things I didn't think I would do.
"I have looked at myself for two-and-a-half weeks and it is horrifying.
"I had to forget who I was and let it go, it was quite interesting to get over it. I was in the jungle with no control. I am looking forward to being back in control."
George provided fans with an update about his post-elimination plans, revealing he indulged in a pizza following his jungle exit.
He wrote on Twitter: “Eating pizza and watching #FIFAWorldCup [World Cup trophy emoji] replay after a lovely long shower. Thanks for all the amazing messages. The love always tracends the negativity. This bitch still gives great headline. I have seen them all and laughed heartily! #ImACelebrityGetMeOutOfHere. (sic)"
