I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! fans claimed they found the moment that ‘proved’ Dean McCullough was ‘faking his tears’.
The radio presenter was chosen for the majority of the trials, much to the dismay of many angered fans who thought other stars should have the opportunity to take part in the trials. Dean recently got his personal best when he collected 10 out of 12 stars in a Jack and the Screamstalk trial.
On Tuesday night’s episode of the show, the stars boarded the Fright Bus and were covered with gross critters. The likes of N-Dubz star Tulisa and Love Island’s Maura Higgins were screaming in fear as they were showered with critters, viewers took to social media to claim Dean looked very calm.
“Was it only me but was Dean NOT screaming in the bus trial and just getting on with it?” one user said. “He forgot his act for a moment, which means he was playing for screen time.” Another viewer said: “Strange that Dean was hardly screaming on the fright bus.”
“Dean is extremely calm for someone who has spent the past week screaming during trials,” one user commented and another said: “Funny how Dean wasn’t screaming on the bus?” Dean has been dividing opinions since joining the ITV show, but one of his radio co-stars jumped to his defence.
The early morning presenter for Radio 1 has faced countless trials in his stay so far Down Under, screaming the phrase ‘ I’m a celebrity, get me out of here’ on two occasions. And as tension started to rise in camp, he also clashed with Coronation Street star Alan Halsall, who tried to wake him to do his chores.
However, his radio co-star Danni Diston has defended him and joked: “I did think in my head he’s probably having a bit of a lie in out there,” before saying he’ll be enjoying getting more rest in camp.
Dean is usually on air from 5am to entertain the early risers. And Danni continued to tell the Sun, he’s usually very cheerful. “I have never really experienced a grumpy Dean so I’m lucky in that sense. I don’t think he’s a very grumpy man. He does early breakfast and you have to be quite up and on it to do earlies.”
