Gazza is going in the jungle!
Thursday 14 May 2009
Football legend Paul Gascoigne has signed up for the next series of I'm A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here!
Gazza, who is battling an addiction to alcohol and drugs, said he is "very excited" about taking part in the show and "can't wait" to tough it out in the Australian bush.
The fallen soccer ace revealed that he had been approached by ITV before but they were never able to strike a deal. But now Gazza seems to think the time is right to get stuck in Bushtucker trials and scary jungle challenges!
"I’m feeling great. Everything’s going really well.", the 41-year-old said of his battle against alcoholism. But he also revealed that he nearly died three times when his heart stopped beating in rehab.
Gazza has been off the drugs for 15 months and not had a drink for four months, but whether it is a good idea to put him under such stressful conditions - physically and emotionally - remains to be seen.
What do you think? Will I'm A Celebrity be the life-changing experience for Gazza or is it a crazy idea?
