I'm A Celeb: Boy George says he was 'ready' to leave the jungle

Boy George had the nation talking again after the pop sensation caused chaos in camp after he stole the last ration of banana in the camp.

This series of Im a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! has been putting the famous faces through as much torment as ever, with gruelling trials and extra tasks thrown in for the hungry celebs.

Mondays instalment of the hugely popular ITV show saw viewers say goodbye to Sue Cleaver after she was the third celebrity to be dumped from the Australian jungle.

But it didnt take long before all chaos ensued after the Karma Chameleon sneakily pinched the final banana in the food rationing which was initially assigned to the Coronation Street star.

The 61-year-old was spotted cheekily swiping the final piece of fruit by telly bosses before he confessed his crimes to the Bush Telegraph.

He told viewers: I had a banana last night and then obviously Sue left this morning and there was an extra one, so I took it and I ate it and I hid the skin in my pocket so I wouldnt get caught. Ha ha ha!

Despite the hit singer cleverly hiding the evidence in his jacket pocket, it didnt take long before Hollyoaks star Owen Warner caught him out just hours later.

After he and Lioness Jill noticed the banana discrepancy, the soap star soon interrogated the chart topper around the campfire.

The 23-year-old asked: You had one last night and one this morning? to which Boy George admitted: Mmm, I thought it was Sues.

Without asking? Owen pointed out as Boy George chuckled: Says the man who has had more food than anyone in this camp.

Could have asked first though, he fired back with while looking visibly annoyed.
