Perez Hilton is about to enter the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Australia jungle as an intruder – and he’s sure to shake things up.

The celebrity gossip blogger, 41, will make his debut on the next episode of the show, as he revealed the news on his Twitter account.

He shared a video of him in the full outfit and told his followers: ‘@ImACelebrityAU – don’t get me out of here!! Vote for me to enter every trial!!

‘You can vote regardless of where you live! All you have to do is share #CelebPerez across your socials!!! And watch all the action on YouTube! Episode are being uploaded there in full! Let’s do this!’

Perez told Sunday Confidential what he hopes to achieve in the jungle: ‘My dream scenario would be to get out of the jungle and hear that I am Australia’s new sweetheart, that would be delightful.

‘But I am also realistic. More important to me than leaving the celeb experience and being Australia’s sweetheart is leaving and knowing that I got a lot more people to tune in and watch.

‘Hopefully I am able to help with ratings and hopefully I am able to help with social.’

Perez had initially been pegged to star in the show last year, but it didn’t work out as they picked rival gossip reporter Richard Reid instead.

He added: ‘They reached out to me last year about doing it and asked me if I was interested and I said “I am interested, let’s talk” and then they went cold on me.

‘Then they ended up casting someone who was very similar to me. So now it is my turn.’

Perez also added that he wants to steal some of Charlotte Crosby and Ryan Gallagher’s thunder, as their on-off jungle romance has been the focus of most of the headlines from this series.

He added: ‘I feel like Charlotte and Ryan have been sucking way too much of the oxygen in the room and stealing way too much on-air time. That is to the detriment to some of the other camp mates.’

He’s sure to cause quite a stir when he arrives – and we can’t wait to see it.
