Three star down!
Oti has succeeded in getting three out of three stars so far!
But viewers can’t help but think that her questions are more difficult than Dean’s, with even Ant and Dec admitting they didn’t know the answer to Mariah Carey’s Prince of Egypt hit.
Are you getting the answers right?
The Mummy Returns!
Oti is straight to volunteer for the The Sinister Sarcophagus: The Mummy Returns, after Dean previously quit the trial early.
But she is quick to regret her decision as she mutters: ‘What have I done?’
However, her campmates are behind her and the dancer says: ‘I’m hoping to face my fears and do my best!’
As she joins Ant and Dec, Oti vows she won’t say I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! no matter what happens.
But will she manage to keep to her word?
Bye Tulisa!
The celebrities have to say goodbye to Tulisa, as Alan calls her his original ‘wife’ in the jungle and Danny calls her an ‘amazing campmate’.
However, it’s time to get straight on with the chores and Danny decides to tackle the dunny solo, much to the delight of Melvin.
It’s time!
As Oti gears up to take on The Sinister Sarcophagus: The Mummy Returns, the Jungle Arms re-opens its doors and another celebrity will have to pack their bags…
I’m A Celeb’s iconic fan favourite trial Celebrity Cyclone ‘set to get a spin-off series’ on ITV
I’m A Celebrity’s iconic fan favourite trial Celebrity Cyclone is reportedly set to get it’s own spin off series – and the public may have the chance to get involved.
The legendary challenge, which comes when there are just four campmates left in the jungle, sees the contestants battle wind, water, and obstacles as they make their way up a huge slip and slide.
They carry giant yellow stars up the hill one by one while dressed up as superheroes, making for a much more fun trial than the others.
As the years have gone on, Celebrity Cyclone has become a beloved tradition of the show that most campmates want to make it far enough to take on.
It’s so popular that it could become a full series and a ‘stand alone show,’ reports The Sun.
Fans go wild after hearing ‘adorable’ story of how Danny met his wife
I’m A Celeb fans went wild after hearing Danny Jones share the ‘adorable’ story of how he met his wife Georgia during Monday night’s show – including how he chased her for a whole year to get her to agree to a date.
The couple have been married for a decade after the McFly singer, 38, proposed while on holiday in Cyprus in 2013, and they also share a six-year-old son called Cooper.
Former Miss England winner Georgia, 37, and their son are both due to fly out to Australia in support of the star.
Lifting the lid on how he met the blonde beauty, Danny told his campmates that he met her at an event and was immediately smitten with her and her Northern accent.
He recalled: ‘It took me a year to get her because I invited her out for a roast. It was just like clubbing, we couldn’t talk.
‘I was like “do you wanna go to the pub tomorrow?” and she was like “Yeah”. I text her in the morning and she was like “Sorry, I can’t make it”.’
Watch: Oti Mabuse faces her fears as she’s sealed in a bug-filled sarcophagus
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Oti Mabuse faced her fear of tight spaces during the latest BushTucker Trial.
During Tuesday’s instalment of the ITV show, the professional dancer, 34, is chosen by the public to face The Sinister Sarcophagus: The Mummy Returns.
Ahead of the trial, Oti is greeted by hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, both 49, and they introduce her to the Sarcophagus, a coffin which features a small compartment inside for her to place her head.
As the rangers reveal the inside of the coffin, Declan mysteriously says: ‘The second time it’s been opened, in 2,000 years.’
Upon seeing the small compartment, Oti looks horrified and proceeds to put her face in her hands as Ant says: ‘Okay so you said you’re not great with tight spaces, as you can see it’s gonna be pretty tight in there.’

Watch: Maura Higgins’ mum squirms as she’s grilled over Pete Wicks rumours
Maura Higgins’ mum squirmed as she was grilled by Lorraine about her daughter’s rumoured romance with Pete Wicks.
Sharon Higgins appeared on Tuesday’s episode of the ITV chat show to talk about Maura’s time in the I’m A Celebrity jungle.
She remained relatively tight-lipped about whether her daughter, 34, was really dating the Strictly star – but confirmed the pair are ‘great friends’.
‘I can only say what she has told me, she did tell me that they were great friends and that she’s single and she’s dating,’ she said. ‘So I don’t know much after that like, she didn’t really expand on that. So I don’t know what’s happening.
‘Maura and Pete were always friends but like the way Maura is, she at the moment – she was concentrating on herself.’

Watch: Tulisa accuses camp mates of being ‘pally for the camera’
Following her exit, the N-Dubz singer, 36, has talked about her co-stars played up to the cameras, as well revealing who her favourite campmate was amid rumours of a romance between her and Coronation Street’s Alan Halsall.
Speaking to Lorraine on Monday after her exit, Tulisa said that she wants former Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse to be the next Queen of the Jungle.
‘I don’t know who will win but I would love to see Oti win,’ she said, before gushing over her other friendships in the jungle. ‘Oti, Alan, Melvin, Maura – they were like my soul family in there.’
But while she said she had found ‘friendships for life’, Tulisa admitted the ‘real test starts when you’re out’.
She said: ‘You know, people for the cameras are all pally pally but it’s – will you send those text messages, will you do the four-hour drive – and so the test of the friendships begin now, or in a week’s time.’
I’m A Celeb viewers accuse show bosses of ‘fixing’ the results
There was outrage across social media on Monday evening as Tulisa Contostavlos became the third star to be voted off I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.
The N-Dubz singer, widely tipped to reach the latter stages of this year’s competition, was a surprise choice for elimination ahead of bookies favourites Barry McGuigan, Alan Halsall and Melvin Odoom.
But while Tulisa, 36, took it well, her army of fans reacted poorly to the decision as they took to social media platform X, formerly Twitter, shortly after her name was announced.
In a series of furious tweets viewers blasted the show, with some accusing ITV producers of orchestrating her exit to allow others a better chance of winning.
‘This is beyond fixed… our Tulisa is braver than the marines omg I am fuming at this!!!!!!’ raged one. ‘She deserved to win out of everyone in there it’s bloody cruel.’
A second added: ‘What’s wrong with the public? Tulisa should still be in there
