And all because she doesn't like bugs.

Talk about drama.

The new series of I’m A Celebrity was reportedly left in chaos after one of the celebrities pulled out just hours before she was due to get on a flight to Australia.

Tulisa Contostavlos was reportedly signed up for the show but backed out last minute because of her fear of bugs. Luckily, ex-Strictly Come Dancing star Ola Jordan signed up last minute to replace her.

According to The Daily Star, an insider said that Tulisa is, “everything you would want from a jungle babe. She has the looks, the glamour and she would be great in the jungle shower.

“She’s also incredibly opinionated. She’s no wallflower and she wouldn’t have been scared to voice her thoughts. She would’ve been sensational as a celebrity contestant. It would’ve been television gold but she pulled out at the last minute.”

However, a rep for the star to The Mirror that the reports are false saying, “This story is complete lies. Tulisa never signed up for I’m A Celebrity this year. She didn’t even had a meeting with the show this year.”

The series begins on Sunday, 13th November.
