I'm A Celebrity Update 10.00am 1.12.11: Crissy Out: Peter Andre visits: Dougie Birthday trial

'I've had the best laugh of my life': Crissy Rock is still smiling as she is the next camp mate to leave the I'm A Celeb jungle

She might have been on cloud nine with Peter Andre yesterday but today Crissy came crashing back down to earth as she was the next celebrity to leave the jungle.

The Benidorm actress was delighted as Ant and Dec read her name out to the group and she immediately gave Willie Carson a big hug.

'I'm going home Willie, I'm gonna have my bacon and eggs for ya,' she told him.

As the group asked her what she needed as she prepared to leave she answered: 'Nothing, I'm going home.'

The blonde star managed 19 days in the jungle and was well-known as the camp jester who was always laughing.

'Freedom!' she shouted as she made her way across the bridge.

'Are you pleased to be out?' Dec asked her.

'No, I'm sad but I already won by getting here, I've had a lovely time. The pinnacle was Peter Andre.'

She also told them that she was shocked that she lasted so long: 'I was in a coma for the first week, but I was on my holidays.'

She then went on to say that she didn't regret not jumping out of the plane at the beginning of the show but said she's had the 'best laugh' of her life.

The conversation then moved on to the camp traitors and Crissy told the hosts: 'We didn't know it was for the good of the group and we had no idea it was Antony and Dougie.'

But after talk of the negative vibes in the camp, Crissy expressed her delight at having spent time with Peter Andre.

'If I'd gone out yesterday and missed that I would have been gutted,' she said.

'He's gonna give me special VIP tickets for me and my friend.'

The last question that Ant and Dec asked Crissy was who she would like to see take home the jungle crown.

'At the minute Willie,' she said. 'Because he's been an absolute sport.


Pleased to be there: Crissy said she was gutted to have left but was surprised she lasted as long as she did

'From day one he's wanted to go home but he's still there so either him or Fatima.'

Perhaps it was her unexpected rant with her 'partner in crime' Willie that lost her votes from the public tonight.

The Scottish star slammed Antony and Dougie after he discovered that they were the real camp traitors.

The star called the pair 'f***ing thieves,' and when they tried to explain themselves, he continued with his opinion.


Still annoyed: Willie and Crissy were angry when they discovered that Antony and Dougie were the real camp traitors

'You don’t steal, you don’t lie,' he said. 'I’m seething, annoyed, these thieves get away with it and we do the time. I’m so f***ing angry.

Willie was told he had to spend the night with Crissy in a dark dungeon after they incorrectly guessed who the traitors were.

'If it was just me, I’d have given you a thump and laughed about it,' he said to Antony and Dougie.

'It's turned nasty, condoning stealing, you can’t do this, condoning thieving, and how can this look good?'

Dougie then tried to apologise while Antony attempted to explain that they thought they were winning packages for everyone and did not know the pair would be imprisoned for it.


In trouble: Antony and Dougie were the target of Willie's ongoing rant

'Willie when you get out of here you will see exactly what happened and you will see that you filled in your own blanks and you are wrong,' said Antony.

'As far as we were aware we were doing it for everyone, we don’t get anything out of it. It’s just a game show!'

But Willie still couldn't let it go and later said: 'He’s lucky I didn’t pull him out of the bed last night, I was very close to it. What you are doing to all the kids in England is condoning stealing.

'You don’t steal, you don’t lie, even in a game show. It is selfishness and I can’t condone it.'


We weren't to know: The pair tried to explain to Willie that they didn't know that he would be punished for what they did

But his anger soon turned into a different kind of emotion as Crissy brought in the packages that Antony and Dougie had won for her and Willie from their loved ones.

Crissy was presented with a photo of her friend, some chocolate and her yin and yan balls, while Willie opened a picture of his wife Elaine.

'The emotion gets to you,' he said as he wiped away a tear.

But this seemed to annoy Antony as he felt Willie didn't appreciate what they had done in order for him to get his precious photograph.


No apology: Willie didn't apologise to the pair even though he also received a present from his loved one

'Morals come and go don’t they? He’s not even had the good grace to apologise.

'The horrible thing is we never did anything but they did say those things and they did react that way,' he added.

'You can’t take that away, it’s a horrible feeling. You can forgive and forget but can’t take it away.'

But Mark Wright defended Crissy and Willie, saying: 'You can understand why they thought like that.'

'I will never understand that because I would not react like that,' Antony snapped back.

'Not with people I have lived with for two weeks.'

However, Crissy didn't seem to hold a grudge against the pair and was kind enough to share her chocolate with the group.

'It’s your birthday please take a bar,' she told Dougie as she sang Happy Birthday to him.

'No hard feelings, we’ve got over it now,' she added as she also handed some to Antony and Mark.

'It wasn’t what you did, it was the way we were treated, it’s not your fault,' she said and then hugged Dougie.

'All I’ll say is you make good spies.'

But the negative vibes in the camp hadn't completely disappeared as Antony continued his feud with Fatima.

Speaking to Dougie - following his attempt at the Bushtucker trial - the Coronation Street star was still talking about Willie's reaction that morning but soon managed to bring Fatima's mood into the equation.

'You get someone like Fatima who in this environment isn’t how she is normally but in here she is like empowering whilst also undercutting, it makes me furious,' he said.

'When you had trial doubts earlier she was straight in there under cutting you, she more than anyone was putting doubt in your mind.


'Undercutting': Antony was annoyed with Fatima as he felt she tried to persuade birthday boy Dougie not to do the trial

'All the time trying to tell you how to empower yourself, I can see it, he added. 'You did it so well done you but you nearly didn’t.'

However, Dougie wasn't bothered as he was celebrating turning 24 and received a surprise in the form of celebrity guest - Peter Andre.

The former I'm A Celebrity contestant spent the day in camp and certainly made an impact on them all.

The former pop star was on hand to give Mark some love advice after he met his ex-wife, Katie Price, during his time in the jungle.

As Mark was sat on his own contemplating his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Lauren Goodger, Peter decided to join him.

'I don’t know how you feel, or felt, but I’m finding things hard with my ex, but I know it’s not right, Mark said to him.

'I loved Katie more than I loved anyone in my life, we had kids, a marriage and you never loose that,' he replied.

'Why can’t you find a different way?' he added referring to Lauren.

'We tried so many times,' said Mark and then asked Peter how he got over Katie.

'However I look at the situation, it’s not what I wanted,' he answered.

He then pointed to his heart and said: 'I think this has moved on, but this hasn’t,' and pointed to his head.

'My heart has moved on, I’m ready to meet someone and all that but seriously, it’s your mind, it’s always there.'

'But I think my head has moved on as I want to be with someone else but my heart won’t move on,' said Mark.

'Then I’m sorry to say it, you’re gonna hate me but you’re not ready to.

'If she means something to you then there has got to be another way,' added Peter.

The pair then moved down to the creek to have some privacy and their conversation continued.

'For years, it’s gone on and on and I know it’s not right,' Mark then told him.

'Ten years is a long time,' remarked Peter.


Make it work: Peter told Mark that if he still has feelings in his heart then he should give it another go with Lauren Goodger

'If this experience has made you clearer in the mind, then great, but it sounds to me that there’s still something there, I can’t imagine her not doing anything to make it right.'

'I know she would,' finished Mark.

Later that day, Peter had a different kind of conversation with another male camp mate as he enjoyed some time in a hot tub.

The camp had been split into two teams for a general knowledge quiz, with Antony, Willie and Dougie playing against Mark, Fatima and Crissy.

The three men were triumphant and their prize was a hot tub party with Peter.

'My hot tub parties usually rock but I’m not in control of this one so anything could happen,' Peter said.

As the group enjoyed some champagne and sang happy birthday to Dougie, Willie accidentally touched Peter’s penis with his toe.

'I didn’t expect at the end of the day to be sharing a hot tub with three guys and Willie has just touched my willy, he gave me a willy wonka,' the star commented.

Willie almost disappeared under the water until he found a high seat.

'I could swim around here if you lot get out!' he said.

The group returned to the camp feeling a little bit tipsy, and then the group had to wave Peter goodbye.

Before leaving he said: 'Being here this evening changed everything - it brought back every beautiful memory, the sounds, the smell - it just reminded me how I felt in every way.'

'Hungry, in love, hungry, in love and hungry.

'These guys were given an extra meal tonight for me but I’m not going to eat it as it’s a bit of extra food for them will mean so much.'

'He gave me a willy wonka!' Peter Andre gets more than he bargained for as he spends time in the hot tub during his day in the I'm A Celeb jungle




By Kirsty Mccormack

Last updated at 7:49 AM on 1st December 2011


He might have found romance the last time he stepped foot in the jungle but this time Peter Andre got another unexpected treat.

The former pop star arrived in the jungle yesterday after the camp mates correctly guessed the name of five songs that were played into the jungle.

The 38-year-old star spent the day with the other celebrities and it ended with a party in the hot tub where Willie Carson accidentally touched him where he shouldn't.

'I didn’t expect at the end of the day to be sharing a hot tub with three guys and Willie has just touched my willy, he gave me a willy wonka,' Peter said.

He shared the hot tub and champagne with the former jockey, Antony and Dougie after the trio won the camp quiz.

Earlier on in the day the celebrities were told they had to write their own jungle song using bongos, tambourines and a guitar.


They had only one hour to write the track and then performed the song in order to win a treat.


The task was one close to the heart of Peter as he wrote the catchy song Insania during his time in the bush.

He released the track once he left the jungle and it reached number three in the charts.

However, he counted himself out of this singing task saying: 'I’ve already sung once here, I ain't going to do it again. There are some things I regret in my life and that was one of them.'

Dougie had hoped they would write together though, saying: 'Finally the stars have aligned and McFly are collaborating with Peter Andre!'

He then named the jungle band The Leeches because he said: 'We suck!'


Male fun: The guys won the treat after they were the winners of the camp quiz

The lyrics to the song they'd written were: 'Here in the jungle in our final days, smiles as big as Andre’s, strumming guitar our Dougie plays, awesome in so many ways, not forgetting Fatima who is always moaning for tea, the Prince and Princess locked in a cell, we’re ready for home you can tell, left in the jungle.'

After an enthusiastic performance from the group, Dougie decided to smash up the guitar that he had been using.

'I couldn’t have written that song by myself,' he said. 'As it would have been a song all about boobs and food.'

'It’s gone from being a dark morning to a glorious day,' Antony added.


'Spooky': The singer said it felt weird to be back in the jungle but was enjoying his time there

And although Mark Wright missed out on some hot tub fun with the lads, he did get the chance to spend some quality time with Peter as the two discussed their love lives with one another.

'I loved Katie more than I loved anyone in my life, we had kids, a marriage,' he told the TOWIE star.

'You never lose that, yeah, being here is spooking me out.'

Mark then went on to open up about his feelings for his ex-girlfriend, Lauren Goodger, who he was with for ten years.

'I think my head has moved on as I want to be with someone else but my heart won’t move on,' he said.

'Then I’m sorry to say it, you’re gonna hate me but you’re not ready to,' Peter replied.

'If she means something to you then there has got to be another way.'

'For years, it’s gone on and on and I know it’s not right,' Mark added.

But Peter needn't worry about not getting any female attention as Crissy and Fatima were besotted with him as soon as he walked out of the mystery box.

Fatima laid on her hammock gazing at the British-born Australian, and Crissy managed to persuade him to give her his number when she left the jungle so that she could arrange to come to one of his future concerts.

The Mysterious Girl singer seemed a bit overwhelmed to be back in the jungle after so many years and looked happy as he reminisced about his blossoming romance with Katie Price, and told the group how he got close to her.


He tweeted about his anticipation before entering the jungle yesterday, saying: 'I'm about to go in .:) wow this feels strange.'


Big hug: Fatima appeared to be gazing at Peter whilst he was in the jungle and spent time with the group

But as he left the group after letting them have his dinner because he knew how hungry they must have been, the father-of-two looked pleased that he had spent the day there.

'Being here this evening changed everything - it brought back every beautiful memories, the sounds, the smell - it just reminded me how I felt in every way,' he said.

'Hungry, in love, hungry, in love and hungry. These guys were given an extra meal tonight for me but I didn't eat it as it’s a bit of extra food for them that will mean so much.'

What a way to spend your birthday: I'm A Celeb's Dougie celebrates turning 24 by completing a Bushtucker trial



By Kirsty Mccormack

Last updated at 9:24 AM on 1st December 2011



Most people spend their birthday eating cake and opening presents but not Dougie Poynter.

The I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here star spent his 24th birthday in the Australian jungle but he wasn't sitting around bored.

The McFly star agreed to complete the latest Bushtucker trial after Mark suggested he should do it on his special day.


Birthday boy: Dougie Poynter turned 24 by doing a Bushtucker trial

But Dougie wasn't so sure about doing it at first.

'Fatima will nail this Bush Tucker Trial but I’m happy to give it a go,' he told the group.

'I have to do relatively well as everyone is bumming out today.'

The group were not so enthusiastic for Willie to take part as he told them: 'I will get the stars and then I’ll drop them.'

As Dougie arrived at the trial, hosts Ant and Dec attempted to sing Happy Birthday to the star but he asked them to stop while laughing.


Race Around The Clock: The 24-year-old had to lay down on a giant clock and move his way around it

The pair then asked him if he was looking forward to doing the trial.

'I knew they would make me do it as it was my birthday and because I was a naughty traitor,' Dougie answered.

Race Around The Clock saw Dougie lay down on a giant clock where he pulled himself around it and put his face into several boxes that were placed at different numbers on the clock.

Inside each box was a different jungle critter and the musician had only ten minutes to release all six stars.


Time to go: Dougie wasn't phased by the various jungle critters that he faced in the trial

Giggling nervously, Dougie began the trial and turned himself round to two o’clock.

As he put his head in the box, stick insects fell on his head but he managed to release the star from the hoop using his teeth.

At four o’clock, he faced lots of snakes, but he wiggled the star around several bends and finally released it.

Two hours later on the clock, Dougie was smothered in fly pupae but the star kept his cool and got his third star.

When Ant and Dec asked him what the fly pupae tasted like, he replied: 'Soup!'


Tastes like soup: The McFly star told Ant and Dec that the fly pupae tasted like soup

Dougie was covered in slime at eight o'clock as hundreds of meal worms and cockroaches poured over his head but he managed to pull the string with his teeth and retrieve the next reward.

At ten o’clock, Dougie faced rats but as they ran around his head he pulled down the fifth star.

The final box was filled with huge spiders but Dougie pressed ahead and won the sixth and final star.

'You smashed it with three minutes still to go,' Dec told him. 'Now you can go back with a peace offering and hopefully improve the mood in camp.'


Grabbing the stars: Dougie was only allowed to use his mouth to collect the yellow objects

Dougie then told the hosts that the first thing he wanted to do was go back and have a wash.

'I set myself my own personal challenge of seeing how long I could go without a wash,' he told them.

'I’ve gone four days without washing but the smell was so bad I’ll have to now wash.'

As he made his way back to camp he expressed his happiness at successfully completing the trial.


'I did it': Dougie was so pleased that he completed the trial and decided to jump on Mark on his return to the camp

'The mood in camp at the moment is extremely bummed so I hope this might cheer them up a bit.'

And when he arrived the first thing he did was shout: 'I did it!'

Dougie then ran towards Mark and wrapped his legs around him whilst he lifted him up and cheered.

The group were really pleased that Dougie had completed the challenge, not only because they would be eating a proper dinner but also because it was his birthday and it meant that the mood would be lifted on his special day.

Misha B, Little Mix , Marcus Collins and Amelia Lily at X Factor secret gig

Taking the Gaga look too far! Misha B steals the show for all the wrong reasons in an ill-advised jumpsuit at X Factor secret gig

She was hailed as a dream to work with by the X Factor styling team thanks to the fact she was willing to experiment when it comes to fashion.

But tonight Misha B took her eccentric way of dressing a bit too far as she arrived for the X Factor secret gig wearing a bizarre black jumpsuit which did little to flatter her womanly curves.

The odd outfit featured a black corseted top, with attached hotpants and cut-out panels down the legs, filled in with black paisley-print material.

Misha teamed the all-in-one with a black suede jacket, which featured pointed shoulders, and a pair of platform trainers that would have looked out of place on one of the Spice Girls during their heyday.

The overall look proved unflattering on 19-year-old singer Misha, who will be fighting to keep her place on The X Factor on the show's semi-finals this weekend.

Mischa's direct competitor, Amelia Lily, also went all out for the performance at the Talk Talk Soho store in London, teaming a pair of animal-print leggings with glittery boots and a sheer black blouse.

The duo - the last remaining two in Kelly's girls category - were joined by fellow semi-finalists Marcus Collins and Little Mix for the top-secret gig.

While Marcus went for a casual look in a black top and jeans, Little Mix looked glamorous as they posed for photographers at the event.

Jade decided to recycle her specially-created House of Holland for Pretty Polly personalised tights, which feature the letters of their band name scattered randomly across the black mesh, while Leigh-Anne opted to copy her bandmate in the legwear department.

Meanwhile, blonde beauty Perrie donned a pair of black trousers, braces and white shirt, while Jesy also went for a monochrome look in a striped black and white blouse with shiny black trousers.

The remaining four acts will no doubt be working as hard as they can in a bid to stay in the competition during this weekend's live shows.

It has been suggested that the final four have been given the opportunity to choose their own songs for the semi-finals, allowing them the chance to perform to the very best of their abilities.

But Misha said she thinks she will be going home this weekend, because the public will have been influenced by reports that she was bullying other contestants earlier this month.

She explained in a recent interview: 'Two Sundays ago I was ­preparing to go home. I said to the guys goodbye, I said to ­everyone (the staff) goodbye and thanks for now.

'That was it, I’m going home. But when my name was called it was amazing, absolutely amazing, mind-blowing.

'My name was called out first and I was in a state of shock for the rest of the day. I’m grateful for that ­experience though, and I know what to expect in the future. It will help me develop.'

The X Factor is on ITV1 this Saturday and Sunday nights at 8pm.

X Factor heaven: Little Mix's Perrie Edwards dating One Direction's Zayn Malik

A match made in X Factor heaven! Little Mix's Perrie Edwards 'dating One Direction's Zayn Malik'



By Sarah Bull

It's a match made in reality television heaven - Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards has apparently started dating One Direction heartthrob Zayn Malik.

The pair are said to have started seeing each other after sharing a steamy encounter following One Direction's performance on The X Factor last month.

They were also spotted cuddling up when One Direction and Little Mix both filmed the video to the show's charity single last weekend.

However, news of Zayn, 18, and Perrie's relationship is unlikely to please his bandmate Niall Horan, who has also reportedly been flirting with Perrie.

A source told The Sun: 'Zayn has got in there first but Niall is obsessed with her too.

'They met her on the video shoot and have both been trying to win her over.'

But Zayn and Perrie, 18, are said to be keen to keep their relationship as private as possible for now, with the source added: 'They plan to come out as a couple after The X Factor has finished.'

In an interview with Look magazine earlier this week, Perrie remained quiet about her current relationship status, but did reveal: 'I broke up with my boyfriend after The X Factor started. I think I did the right thing.'

Zayn is no stranger to dating a fellow X Factor contestant, having split from last year's runner-up Rebecca Ferguson earlier this year.

Rebecca had faced much criticism for dating Zayn, who, at 18, was six years her junior.

But the reason behind the split is said to be their careers and they are both rumoured to have realised being unattached would be better at this point in time.

She was made over with hot pink hair when she began her journey on The X Factor earlier this year.

But now Amelia Lily has ditched her pink locks for a more grown-up blonde 'do ahead of the semi-finals of the talent show this weekend.

The 17-year-old singer debuted her lighter locks as she performed at an X Factor secret gig alongside her fellow semi-finalists.

Amelia, who was given a second chance and brought back into the competition after Frankie Cocozza was sent home, teamed the blonde hair with a pair of animal-print leggings, glittery boots and a sheer blouse.

Meanwhile, the show finalists have spoken of their delight that their charity single is looking set to get to number one.

The four remaining acts - Amelia, Misha B, Little Mix, and Marcus Collins - collaborated on a cover version of Wishing On A Star to raise money for Together for Short Lives, which provides support for children unlikely to reach adulthood, as well as their families.

The single also features the other finalists on the ITV1 show along with previous contestants JLS and One Direction.

The release has been outselling its nearest competitor Olly Murs' Dance With Me Tonight this week by more than two copies to one, according to the Official Charts Company.

Speaking ahead of their performance, Little Mix's Jesy said: 'It would be amazing if we got to number one.

'It would be an overwhelming feeling knowing that we're helping so many kids.'

Bandmate Perrie added: 'It's such a good cause. When you meet these children you realise how privileged you are to have your health.'

Speaking of being the girl band to have reached the furthest stage in any series of the X Factor, she added: 'We are overwhelmed. We can't believe we've made it so far.

'We were favourite to go in the beginning and now we're here in the semi-final. It's just unbelievable.'

How to spot counterfeit money


How to spot counterfeit money
How to spot counterfeit money, There Are Some Different Way To The holidays and down economies are prime times for counterfeiters. Now the time to under stand it.......

Millions in fake currency
There's no shortage of cash circulating throughout the economy -- about $824 billion, according to a University of Wisconsin study. But a good chunk of that cash (how much?) may not be on the up and up.

Counterfeit currency is a problem that just won't go away, despite the increased use of credit (which cards are the best?) and debit cards and e-payment technologies. Whether it's a street hustler passing off bogus $10 bills or professional counterfeiters dealing in stacks of $50 and $100 bills, fake currency has the full attention of the U.S. Treasury Department, the FBI and the Secret Service. (Find out the penalties for counterfeiting.)

But, as the Secret Service points out, the American public has a significant role to play in uncovering counterfeit currency. Small-business owners and retail cashiers should be trained to examine and identify phony bills -- but the truth is that anyone can learn to spot a piece of counterfeit cash.

Following are some tips on how to get a handle on bogus bills. They're relatively easy to learn and can turn you into a sharp-eyed spotter of counterfeit currency.
Light it up
The Secret Service advises taking any questionable large bill and holding it up to bright lighting. If it's a good bill, you'll see a hologram on the face-up side of the bill. Ideally, both of the images should match up perfectly. Looking through the light should reveal a thin vertical strip that tells you more. In the photo here, a genuine $100 bill is held above a counterfeit one.
Look for changes in color
The U.S. Treasury offers this tip. Take any $10, $20 or $50 note and move it back and forth (ideally tilting it as you do). You should notice a number in the lower right-hand corner. If the bill's good, you should be able to see a shift in these colors.
Go ultraviolet
An easy way to tell if a bill is authentic is to hold it up to ultraviolet light. Each denomination glows in its own color. Find out what they are:


$5 bills
$10 bills
$20 bills
$50 bills
$100 bills


If the bill doesn't appear as described above, you're holding a phony one.
Play the numbers
An authentic bill has serial numbers that are cleanly spaced and printed in the same color ink as the Treasury Seal (photos). With a fake piece of currency, the numbers may not appear as evenly spaced and may have a color different from that of the Treasury Seal.
What to do
The U.S. Treasury has some advice if you encounter a phony bill:

1. Keep the bill in your possession but get a good description of who gave it to you and where. (How to describe a suspect.)

2. Write down the license or any other available identification number of the passer of the bill, if possible.

3. Contact your local police department or the Secret Service. (How to report fake money.)

4. Place the counterfeit bill in a safe packet or envelope.

5. Do not accuse or otherwise engage the bill passer. Leave that to the authorities.

If you own your own business or handle cash as part of your job, it's a smart move to buy an ultraviolet light (shop for one) or counterfeit detection devices (shop for one). Most business supply stores carry them; you can also buy them online.

Handling counterfeit cash isn't a game. If you suspect you possess a bad bill, take into account the person who gave it to you and call the authorities. Let the law enforcement professionals handle the rest.
