A singer who also entered the coaches panel of The Voice UK will debut on I'm A Celebrity 2024. Danny said,

Oti Mabuse

A professional dancer, also a part of the Dancing on Ice judges' panel. She shared,

“I have been a fan of I’m a Celebrity for so long. I can remember last year thinking, ‘OK, this feels right. I am definitely up for it now, I am up for the challenge."

Barry McGuigan

Barry is a former professional boxer and titleholder of the WBA & lineal featherweight titles. When asked about being on the show, he replied,

“It can be physically arduous, but it’s the psychological part of it that I want to conquer before I get too old. I’m 63 now. I’d rather do it when I’m 63, than 73, put it that way."

Melvin Odoom

As a radio DJ host, currently on BBC Radio 1, Melvin says that his friends encouraged him to partake in the show. He said,

GK Barry

Getting recognition not only as a podcaster and influencer, Barry is also a member of the Loose Women panel.
