I was on I’m a Celeb and campmates went days without washing because of horrible shower conditions, says Nicola McLean
NICOLA McLean has revealed the horrifying conditions in the I'm A Celebrity camp that forced the cast to go days without washing.
She said the celebs resisted stripping off in the jungle shower for as long as they could.
Speaking about her experience on the ITV reality TV show, the former Page 3 star explained: "Honestly, a lot of the other people in camp barely washed for days, and I get it, and I could have easily done that because of how freezing it was."
But Nicola was happy to slip into her bikini back in 2008 - knowing it would get her on camera.
"I was in there for a reason and I wanted to get the air time so I sucked it up and got right in there," she added.
The star dished on behind-the-scenes secrets from camp and revealed what she was most desperate to sneak onto the show.

She explained: “You were allowed one [luxury item]. I took my waterproof mascara but I also hid concealer and an eyebrow pencil in my bra.”
Nicola cheekily added to Daily Star: “Because let’s be honest, they’re weren’t gonna be able to find anything in there - I could probably take my whole makeup bag.”
On the show, no two people are allowed to ask for the same thing, which means they'll be battling to lay claim to the most popular items.
They are allowed to win one item of their choosing during tasks.
Previously, Nicola opened up on the racy trick she used to smuggle contraband into the jungle.
Despite telly bosses only allowing one luxury item per person in the camp, Nicola found another sneaky way.
The former glamour model would use her bra to sneak in the contraband.
