Former Page Three girl Samantha Fox has reportedly signed up for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The model and singer will join ex-snooker champion Jimmy White in the new series, which kicks off on 15 November.

Sam is no stranger to reality TV and  has already appeared on Wife Swap and The Club, in which she memorably rowed with one of the other contestants while dressed as a vampire.

An I'm A Celebrity insider told The Sun: "Sam is a Page Three icon and will be the show's glamour girl.

"She's no pushover and will speak her mind. She'll be a strong contestant and viewers will be interestd to see what she's up to."

However, she may face some competition in the glamour stakes if the rumours are true that the show's bosses are trying to lure Katie Price back to the jungle.

The Daily Mail reports that Katie has been offered £450,000 to return to the series.

Katie's appearance in the 2004 show was a turning point in her career and she went on to feature in her own reality TV series and launch a string of successful books. She also met her now ex-husband Peter Andre on the programme.

It's feared that Katie's work commitments in the US could mean she isn't available for the start of the show, however, producers are keen for her to make a dramatic late entrance to unsettle the other contestants.

Other names linked to the new series include ex-footballer Vinnie Jones, Amy Winehouse's father Mitch, former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, Emmerdale's Lisa Riley, Corrie's Bruce Jones and actor Brian Blessed!

What are your thoughts on this year's line-up so far? Should Katie go back to the jungle for another bite at the Bushtucker Trials? Let us know what you think...

    Where are the hot men?! No way Katie will go back, she thinks she is too good for it now. Z Listers and even non-celebrities (Mitch Winehouse), I hope this isn't the final list!

    Couldn't care less. Get this trash of our tv's. Make something good, or give the money to charity not to these sad sacks.
