Ricky Wilson Says Festival Toilets Have Prepared Him for I’m A Celebrity Jungle Dunny

Ricky Wilson I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Digi Mart USA News: Ricky Wilson says festival toilets have left him well prepared for the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

dunny.

The Kaiser Chiefs frontman is set to compete in this year’s edition of the ITV reality series. He claims that being on the road with the band has prepared him for some of the less pleasant aspects of life in the Australian jungle.

Speaking to The Sun at the Children With Cancer UK Christmas Gala, Wilson said: “I’ve been in a band for 20 years. The thing about festivals, backstage, you think it’s all nice, but they usually have one toilet.

Predominantly the road crew are men, and they provide one toilet for like 200 men. You have to get up pretty early in the morning for it not to be a horrific experience.”

Wilson insists that he has “never camped anywhere” in his life. He recalled watching from the comfort of the bath when the Kaiser Chiefs played at Glastonbury in the past.

The 48-year-old singer said: “I’ve never actually camped anywhere in my life. But show me where to sleep and I’ll sleep there.

At Glastonbury, I was staying in a really nice hotel. I went back to the hotel every night.

I watched the headliners in the bath. And I actually ate a Flake when I was doing it.”

Wilson joked that he is more concerned about interacting with fellow celebrities than encountering critters during his time in the jungle. He explained: “If you found a spider in your wardrobe, you’d go, ‘Argh, I’ve got a spider’ – out of context.

If someone were to chuck 40 spiders at you as part of a television game show, you’d go, ‘Oh, I know what’s happening.’ People have asked me what I’m most frightened of, and I think it’s celebrities. That would be challenging.”

Wilson has also warned viewers not to expect him to replicate his stage persona on the show. He said: “Everyone expects me to be more fun, because I’ve been fun on stage for 20 years.

I’m not like that. If I was like that, I’d be exhausted.”
