I’m a Celebrity insiders confirm part of the show is completely staged

We've been had!

For 14 years I’m a ‘Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ has been on our screens.

Dozens of celebrities have entered and exited the jungle and while tasks, moods and winners have all changed, one thing has remained consistent.

The waterfall shower.

Yes, the sexy waterfall shower has been as much a part of I’m a Celebrity get Me Out of Here as Ant and Dec.

But now the producers have revealed that the shower is not actually a waterfall. It is instead, a mere mortal made shower, loaded with hot water and is turned off whenever it’s out of shot.

Talking to The Sun, show insiders confirmed the waterfall has “been a manufactured part of the set for 14 years” and claim they’ve never pretended otherwise.

Back in 2006, Lauren Booth, Cherie Blair’s sister wrote a scathing article about the show and revealed how staged the whole thing actually is.

“Take the rocks around the edge of the encampment – they seemed to be hollow and made of papier mache.”

“I also realised that the waterfall, like the pool beneath it was not part of the jungle at all, but a man-made creation.”

“Unless, of course, real rain forest waterfalls get turned off between three and six every afternoon,” she wrote.

Who’d have thought it, eh?
