I’M A Celeb’s two big personalities are on a collision course after Boy George reacted to Matt Hancock being voted camp leader.
Sunday night’s instalment of the ITV show saw the former Health Secretary get appointed as boss of the jungle.
Matt, 44, went head-to-head against rugby ace Mike Tindall for the top spot, who had help from Coronation Street’s Sue Cleaver.
But it was the MP and ITV News reader Charlene White who won the challenge.
However pop icon Boy George made it very clear that he won’t follow any of his rules.
He said: “Ultimately, neither of them will have any power over me.
“If I don’t want to do something, I won’t do it.”
The teams each had a wall of lights in front of them and were tasked with having to turn them all off.
Mike and Matt, who were blindfolded, had to turn them all on, while Charlene and Sue gave them directions.
After he was given position of camp leader, Matt said: “Obviously, it’s a great honour and privilege to be camp leader. I want to thank everybody who voted for me.”
There have long been tensions between the two (well, George towards Matt).
Sources have told us that Boy George walked away from Matt’s Covid grilling in case he “flipped his lid”.
Campmates laid into the disgraced ex-Health Secretary who broke his own lockdown rules by snogging an aide last year.
A show source said: “George walked away just before things started getting heated.
“He would’ve flipped his lid if he was sitting there listening to Matt’s frankly pathetic excuses.”
Tension is said to be rising between them, with our source saying the singer “really doesn’t like” him.
Boy George isn’t the only one who has had a pop at Matt.
As they began to settle on the camp rules and which people would be taking up which roles, footballer Jill Scott could not resist having a little dig at Matt.
As Matt read out what he and Charlene had agreed, Jill quipped: “Just to be clear, are these guidance or rules?”
