VICTORIA’S Secret model Leomie Anderson says she wants to spend the whole time in her bikini during I’m A Celebrity.
said she cannot wait to have her waterfall shower moment — following in the footsteps of in her famous white bikini in 2006.
Leomie told The Sun: “Honestly, if I could just not wear the top and wear my bikini — that’s kind of going to be my uniform. I love the hat. I want to wear it all the time.”
She added: “I’ve packed many a bikini for that waterfall and we are going to be best friends.
“I don’t know about anyone else, but I will be in that shower regularly.”
Asked if she will be treating the camp as her catwalk, Leomie said: “Every day is a runway, whether I’m walking through a trial, across a bridge, through fish guts — every opportunity.”
She walked in her first fashion show in 2015, but said she is more nervous of the jungle.
She explained: “When you are walking a Victoria’s Secret show it is nerve-racking, but it is a walk.
“With this, you don’t know whether you will be jumping out of a plane or doing something crazy.”
Leomie became the first black British Victoria’s Secret Angel in 2019 and now hopes to break the stereotype of in the camp.
She said: “People have this idea that models are vapid or don’t want to get their hands dirty. This is my opportunity to show people that not just models, women in general actually, should not be underestimated.”
Leomie, from South London, said she will be thinking of her dad, who died of cancer on Day in 2022, when she steps into camp.
She said: “He didn’t know half of the things that I did. He didn’t know the designers, the magazines, but this show, he knew it through and through.
“So I know he’d be super proud of me. My dad would say: ‘Go on darling, smash it.’
“People often call me a , which I love, because I do love dressing up and looking glamorous.
“That’s not my entire personality and I wouldn’t say that my value is within my appearance.”
Comedian has joked he will be representing the “dad bod” community in the camp.
The social media star, 38, said he does not expect to have the “jungle hunk” title while using the waterfall shower.
He told The Sun: “I’m doing it for the dad bods out there.”
Ex-carpet fitter and dad-of-two Jack, who is also from South London, shot to fame posting skits on social media in the 2020 lockdown.
He said he is still getting his head around being on the show, saying: “It doesn’t feel real.”
