Rhys Nicholson reveals why he was dropped from I’m a Celebrity

Rhys Nicholson revealed he’s from I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! just two weeks before filming was scheduled to begin.

The comedian (32) revealed on the I’ve Got News For You podcast that he would appear on the Channel 10 reality show in 2018, but was thrown out and replaced by Bernard Tomic.

“I have all the needles for it … like, proper rabies needles and stuff, which by the way hurt a lot,” he said, referring to the vaccine requirements to enter South Africa.

“And two weeks before I had to leave, they bumped me.”

“That was the year Tomic went in, so I guess I was probably replaced by Tomic, and then he pissed anyway.”

Rhys further said he was ‘fairly irritated’ because he was going to be paid ‘a lot of money’ for his appearance.

“I got nothing from that money,” he added. “I kept it a secret for a long time and it’s going to change my life.”

He also revealed that he has since been asked three times to appear on I’m a Celebrity, but he refused.

Bernard stopped it after his second day in the jungle during the 2018 season.

He joined comedian Fiona O’Loughlin to undertake an air obstacle course that required him to wear glasses that made everything look upside down.

“I was pretty irritated about it because … it was a lot of money, so much money, and I got nothing from that money,” he said.

Although Fiona shouted directions for her fellow star to follow to grab the winning stars, it was all too much for Bernard.

“I’m really sick. I’m about to vomit, I’m out, I’m so sick, ‘he says while still hanging on the edge.

He revealed that he ‘has never felt so sick’, and he exclaimed those familiar words, ‘I’m a celebrity, get me out of here!’
