- Matinee Idol

A source told New Idea that co-host Robert Irwin’s famous connections could be great for the show, as he may be able to convince some celebrities to join the cast of I’m A Celebrity in 2025.
“Robert has travelled the world and the Irwins have more A-list celebrity phone numbers than Kris Jenner,” a source at Network 10 told the publication.
The insider added that he is “more connected than people realise.”
Rumours have swirled that the 20-year-old may be able to recruit the likes of Melissa Joan Hart, from Sabrina the Teenage Witch, as he allegedly reached out to her last year but she wasn’t able to make the scheduling work.
“Maybe he can work his magic this time. Melissa is a good retro name,” the source added.
“Ten will get their chequebook out for one or two big names but that’s where the budget will get blown.”
In addition to Melissa Joan Hart, other celebrities who are reportedly in discussions to appear on I’m A Celebrity next year include Australian actor and television host Rob Mills, actor Samuel Johnson, Neighbours star Ryan Moloney, Australian actress and model Nicky Whelan, Shane Warne’s ex-wife Simone Callahan, Australian singer Sheldon Riley, and drag queen Kween Kong.
A separate source also revealed to Yahoo Lifestyle that former MasterChef Australia judge, and current Dessert Masters host, Melissa Leong is in talks to enter the South African jungle in 2025.
The insider revealed that Dessert Masters is likely not to get renewed for a third season, but Ten still wants to maintain a relationship with Melissa.
“What has happened in the past with Channel 10’s ‘network talent’ after their flagship show gets cancelled is that they get offered a significant pay cheque to enter the jungle,” the source told the publication.
“We saw that with Tristan McManus last year after Studio 10 was axed. He was reluctant but eventually agreed as the network promised him more work if he signed up for the reality show.”
In addition, viral Olympic break-dancer Rachael ‘Raygun’ Gunn is also tipped to be appearing on the reality show next year.
A production insider told Yahoo Lifestyle that Raygun is “very close” to signing on.
“Raygun is one name at the top of the list who bosses have been working on since she went viral,” the source shared. “Initially Raygun’s team declined, but now she’s realising her window to make big money is quickly closing – and it’s unlikely she’ll ever get a six-figure sum to do a show ever again.”
