I’m A Celeb 2022: Boy George crosses paths with Matt Hancock’s starstruck girlfriend

One could be forgiven for guessing the topic of conversation as Boy George crossed path’s with jungle nemesis Matt Hancock’s girlfriend following his departure from I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

The Culture Club singer was the fourth star to exit the purpose built camp on Tuesday evening, just hours after entertaining the camp with a karaoke version of his biggest hit – Karma Chameleon. 

And he was promptly whisked off to the Gold Coast’s lavish JW Marriott Resort & Spa, where he was serenaded with the track by former campmates Scarlette Douglas, Sue Cleaver and Charlene White before meeting businesswoman Gina Coladangelo for the first time. 

Fancy meeting you here! Boy George crossed path’s with Matt Hancock’s girlfriend on Tuesday following his departure from I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

George, 61 – reduced to tears following Hancock’s late arrival in camp – appeared to hit it off with the MP’s girlfriend as they crossed paths outside their luxurious temporary accommodation. 

Coladangelo looked starstruck while chatting to the pop icon as he received a congratulatory round of applause after emerging from his chauffeur driven car. 

Just hours earlier George led the stars in a singalong of Culture Club’s hit single Karma Chameleon during a trip to the camp’s legendary Jungle Arms pub. 

Going out on a high note: The Culture Club singer was the fourth star to exit the camp on Tuesday evening, after serenading the camp with his biggest hit – Karma Chameleon.

Greetings: George appeared to hit it off with the MP’s girlfriend (L) as they crossed paths outside their luxurious temporary accommodation, where Scarlette Douglas (R) was waiting 

Pals: Scarlette beamed as she hugged George outside the luxurious JW Marriott Resort & Spa on Australia’s Gold Coast 

After missing out on the chance to hear the result of England’s World Cup match against Iran, the camp were thrilled to have a surprise treat, and even took part in a game of Beer Pong to win crisps and snacks.

Each of the celebrities then took it in turns on the karaoke, and getting all of the group singing together Boy George led a sing-along to Culture Club’s 1983 hit. 

There was also a jukebox in the Jungle Arms and so Babatúndé led the campmates in the ‘Candy/ Electric Slide’ dance for Scarlette.

Jill Scott said: ‘I love the Jungle Arms, it’s my favourite pub!’

Here he comes: The singer was clearly delighted to be leaving the show’s jungle camp 

Well done George: He was given a warm round of applause after emerging from the rear of his car on Tuesday 

But viewers were left cringing after watching Matt Hancock belt out Queen song I Want To Break Free during the ensuing karaoke session. 

In October 2017, Matt delivered an enthusiastic rendition of Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now at the Tory party conference alongside Therese Coffey and Anne Milton.

And on Tuesday night’s episode of I’m A Celebrity, Matt once again belted out a Queen hit, with viewers taking to Twitter to share their very honest opinions on his performance.

Earlier in the episode, Hollyoaks star Owen Warner struggled to hide his devastation, after missing out on the chance to hear the score from England’s opening World Cup match.

The Three Lions earned an impressive 6-2 victory over Group B rivals Iran in their first match at the tournament in Qatar, but this year’s celebrities are still clueless after once again failing to answer the Deals On Wheels question correctly.

For the latest challenge, Owen and Chris Moyles were tasked with completing a puzzle based on their fellow campmates playing charades, but despite earning the Dingo Dollars they missed out on the coveted prize.

Farewell: George greets photographers after making his exit from the jungle 

Explaining the rules, Chris said: ’16 numbers on the board, a load of clues on the floor and a TV where we can see our campmates acting out charades.’

Boy George acted out ‘Happy worm’, and this then earned them a puzzle piece to put on the board. The pair needed to complete the full puzzle to earn the Dingo Dollars.

Jill acted out sick fish, and of Matt Hancock’s efforts, Owen said: ‘When Matt Hancock’s acting you just have to soak it in.’

Family affair: The star posed with his sister Siobhan after his sibling jetted out to Australia to meet George as he departed the camp

Owen got him to keep acting out ‘relaxed pigeon’ over and over despite already having guessed what it was.

Once they finally earned the Dingo Dollars, Chris and Owen paid a visit to Kev, where they learned the treat up for grabs was an envelope with the England vs Iran score in it and chocolate brownies.

Struggling to hide his excitement at hearing England’s result, Owen said: ‘You seen that?! Come on!’

Competitive: The camp were thrilled to have a surprise treat, and even took part in a game of Beer Pong to win crisps and snacks

Nasty! For the task, the celebrities had to carry glasses of drink using their mouths over to the correct pots to win the bar snacks

Yum! The stars couldn’t hide their excitement as they were rewarded with crisps, chips and pizza after completing the beer pong challenge

Referring to the campmates needing to get the question right, Owen said: ‘If they’ve not got this…’

Chris then clocked that the envelope was in there and shouted: ‘Oh my god have you seen what it says! I thought you just meant the brownies!’

The camp was asked: Which of these had the largest UK viewing figures: The Men’s Euro 2020 final,the Women’s Euro 2022 final, or the Queen’s Funeral?

While Owen and Chris said: ‘Got to be the Queen’s funeral’, which was the answer the camp chose, it turns out more viewers tuned into for England’s Euro 2020 final.

Chris yelled: ‘No!’

A devastated Owen added: ‘I need a moment, honestly. That’s actually devastating. Ah mate, I’m gutted.’

So much food! For many of the stars it was a welcome sight to be greeted with glasses of booze after completing the beer pong challenge

Sing it out! Each of the celebrities then took it in turns on the karaoke, and getting all of the group singing together Boy George led a sing-along to Culture Club’s Karma Chameleon

What a performance! The celebrities showed off their singing skills as they took to the stage after enjoying the food in the Jungle Arms

Final farewell! The night was Boy George’s last in the camp, as later in the show he became the fourth celebrity to be voted off

Speaking after his exit, George told hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly: ‘I have looked at myself for two-and-a-half weeks and it is horrifying. I had to forget who I was and let it go, it was quite interesting to get over it.

‘I am in the jungle with no control. I am looking forward to being back in control.’ 

On how he managed to keep himself sane in the camp, he said: ‘I had to forget who I was the whole time I was in here, I had to let it go. I just had to get over it.

‘I just had to say, “I’m in the jungle, I’ve had no control.”‘

A hard one! For the latest challenge, Owen and Chris Moyles were tasked with completing a puzzle based on their fellow campmates playing charades

What a prize! Once they finally earned the Dingo Dollars, Chris and Owen paid a visit to Kev, where they learned the treat up for grabs was an envelope with the England vs Iran score in it

He added: ‘Being really honest, I am happy to go today. It’s not something I thought I would ever do but it’s a lot tougher than I thought. I think it really makes you appreciate what you have and the people that you love.’

The singer said he would like to see former rugby player Mike Tindall or ex footballer Jill Scott win.

Of Mike, he said: ‘He’s been the most stoic, he’s done the most. I think he’s much wilder than he lets on,’ before concluding: ‘I think Mike or even Jill.’

George’s departure prompted a mixed reaction from fans, with many taking to social media to express their opinion.

Agreeing with the public vote for George to leave, one person wrote on Twitter: ‘Hilarious! He’s out because he’s been relentlessly spiteful and nasty. It’s not complicated.’

Referring to politician Matt Hancock remaining on the reality show longer than George, another person tweeted: ‘Boy George learns he’s LESS popular than the Health Secretary after a major pandemic! Hilarious.’

Another viewer who was pleased to see George go wrote: ‘I am glad that boy George is out. I believe in kindness and I want to see people being kind to Matt Hancock.’

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues on Wednesday November 23, ITV1 at 9:00pm.
