We're all clearly itching to find out how this year's celebs fare Down Under now that the eagerly-anticipated latest season of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! is finally just around the corner.
ITV viewers will be treated to this year's line-up of stars heading into the jungle to take on a bunch of gruesome Bushtucker Trials, endure some camp side drama and handle all the shenanigans that Ant and Dec are certain to throw their way.
This year's campmates include: Coleen Rooney, McFly guitarist Danny Jones, Strictly Come Dancing legend Oti Mabuse, Loose Women panellist Jane Moore, Radio 1's Dean McCullough, boxing promoter Barry McGuigan, Radio DJ Melvin Odoom, Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall, and TikToker GK Barry.
And among her nine other celebrity cast mates is none other than N-Dubz star Tulisa and it seems like her fans couldn't get over her age after finding out how old she really is.

Last year, the 'Girls' singer posted a video on Instagram eating cake to announce a milestone birthday with the caption reading: "BIRTHDAY GIRRRRRLLLL!! #cake."
Fans couldn't wait to rush into her comments to share their shock over her turning 35, with one praising: "You don’t look a day over 21."
Another quipped: "No way are you 35!"
Tulisa, who is now 36, recently opened up about being diagnosed with Bell’s palsy back in 2020 which the NHS describes as a 'temporary weakness or lack of movement that usually affects one side of the face'.
Symptoms include; not being able to move one side of your face which usually happens over a few days, a drooping eyelid or corner of your mouth, drooling, dry mouth, loss of taste and a dry or watering eye.
Speaking on Olivia Attwood's So Wrong It's Right podcast earlier this month, she shared: "I've no idea what they were caused by, they weren't filler, they were just self-occurring, but I came out of the operation and instantly my face was less swollen.
"There's some still there so I still have the inflammation but it's way less. In the next two months [the doctor’s] going to go in to get those ones."
Tulisa also opened up on some symptoms she experienced during the N-Dubz reunion in 2022, saying: "I would have like tingling sensations like little ants crawling in my face.
"I started seeing doctors all around the UK - 'something's wrong with me, what's wrong with my face' - it was so scary. This went all the way up until this year it was horrific.
"I constantly felt like my cheek was on fire. I'd have good days and bad days and on some days, I'd take steroids, which would bring it down."
She continued: "When I was doing that N-Dubz run it was at its worst, so you might see an interview, I look normal. And then you see another interview, it's like, what the hell is going on with my face?
"And I’ve had all these health problems for years - sarcoidosis, immune disorders - and this explains all the symptoms that I was getting and could have been causing Bell’s palsy because in total there was, I think, six of them.
"They could have been growing over the years, actually triggering the Bell’s."
Tulisa also cleared up exactly what cosmetic work she's had done, adding: "Right now, I only have filler in my lips.
"There's no filler anywhere else in my face and I've never spoken about this publicly as I only discovered what was really going on this year."
I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! is set to hit our screens this Sunday (17 November).
