Lauren booted out of the jungle

Lauren Booth: evicted from the jungle
5 April 2012

Lauren Booth has become the fourth contestant to be booted off I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!.

The sister-in-law of Prime Minister Tony Blair lost in the public vote after being told by presenters Ant and Dec that it could be her or Malandra Burrows for the chop.

The journalist, who managed 15 days in the jungle, shouted "Yes" as the decision was announced.

In her post-eviction interview last night, the 39-year-old mother-of-two, who listed spiders as her phobia, told the presenters how the lack of food made the situation "tough".

She said: "Jungle life, the cooking outdoors, the being together was all as I expected, but the being half-starved, that made it tough."

The half sister of Cherie Blair and daughter to actor, Tony Booth, paid tribute to Jan Leeming.
She said the former newsreader was "amazing" but admitted she had lost her temper with her.

She added: "I have got so much respect for her."

Asked who she tipped to win, she plumped for either Jason Donovan or Myleene Klass.

On Saturday, comedienne Faith Brown was the third celebrity to get the boot.

Myleene was hailed "Wonder Woman" after she brought a full complement of nine stars back to camp in her first Bushtucker Trial - Tomb of Torment.

Standing trapped in a vertical coffin plunged in darkness, the challenge was to stay confined for nine minutes as the coffin slowly filled with water and eels.

Lauren said: "She is a little pocket of energy and everything good in a small package - she is Wonder Woman!"

David Gest revealed his excitement on his wedding kiss with Liza Minnelli.

He said: "I was so exited and so in love that when I took my tongue it looked like I was eating a part of her because I went all the way through her mouth over and over - it looked like I was a shark going in and I took every part of her mouth out with my tongue."

He spoke fondly of his ex to pals, saying: "If people ask me about Liza, if they ask: 'Did you love her?' I will answer absolutely.

"If they ask: 'Were there great times?' I will answer: 'Absolutely'."

He also told the others about a hotel he knew of for albinos, which he believed was named "Albino Heights".

Meanwhile, Dean Gaffney and Malandra were relegated to a torturous jungle pit - rife with jungle critters including rats, huntsman spiders and snakes.

The unlucky pair came face to face with their fate when they accepted a challenge in order to win breakfast for the camp.

Malandra told Dean to think of all the people "like Nelson Mandela".

Dean began to panic when he heard strange noises and became convinced that there was a rat in the pit.

Malandra told him: "I always wanted a pet rat".
