I’M A LUVVY
IT’S OZ OVER AS CAMPMATES FLY HOME
BY MARK JEFFERIES reporters@dailyrecord.co.uk I’M a Celebrity’s Nick Knowles is launching an acting career next year.
But he says he won’t be doing any music gigs, despite topping the charts while he was in the jungle.
In a podcast interview from before his stint on the TV reality show, Nick mentioned trying his hand at acting.
He said: “I’m working with a studio in the US from January, so maybe mid-year there might be something. But it’s early days yet.”
During the podcast, TV presenter Nick said he had been offered acting parts many times in the past but had turned them down.
He added that he dreamed of one day making a film retracing Elvis’s steps.
While he was in the I’m a Celeb camp, viewers saw another side to Nick as he discussed his music album.
His cover version of Bob Dylan’s Make You Feel My Love went on to top the single charts when he was in the jungle.
Nick, who presents DIY SOS, also caused a Twitter sensation when he claimed he had “jammed” with Biffy Clyro on a rooftop.
Speaking about any future plans as a musician, he said: “I honestly don’t think anyone needs to suffer with an entire gig from me.
“I really can’t take it that seriously.
“I’m definitely going to stick to the day job.”
Yesterday, I’m a Celeb contestants Fleur East, Emily Atack and Anne Hegerty arrived back in London after their stint Down Under.
On ITV’s I’m a Celebrity Coming Out show last night, former football manager Harry Redknapp, who was crowned jungle king, paid tribute to his campmates.
He said: “I feel like a football team that’s won the World Cup, where the whole team has contributed to winning it and one person is sat here as though he’s done more than the others, which I haven’t
“It was a great adventure.”
