Stacey Solomon as she hits an Oz beach in a bid to be this year's I'm A Celebrity bikini babe

The former X Factor finalist, 21, hopes to follow the example of Myleene Klass, who became an instant sex symbol after taking jungle showers in tiny swimsuits in the 2006 show.

Mum-of-one Stacey said: "I’ve picked out all my favourite bikinis and I love them.

"I’m going to take showers in the jungle but I don’t know if I’ll do it as well as Myleene!"

The Essex girl is already the bookies’ 9/4 favourite to win the ITV series and become the new Queen of the Jungle.
