I’m A Celebrity Fans Call for Immediate Removal of ‘Rude’ Star

Viewers of the popular reality show, *I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here*, have found themselves divided over comedian Ruby Wax’s entrance into the jungle. Following her first day, some fans are calling for her immediate removal, citing her behavior as “rude” towards fellow contestant, Angry Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle.

Comedian Ruby Wax Causes Controversy

At 72, Ruby is one of ten celebrities competing in this year’s edition of the ITV show. She entered the camp with notable contestants like TV host Alex Scott, Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley, and reality star Jack Osbourne on November 16, 2025.

Despite just a few hours in their jungle setting, reactions to Ruby’s interactions have been swift. Viewers voiced their concerns on social media after Ruby allegedly disrespected Angry Ginge. The 24-year-old YouTube personality, already a fan favorite, will participate in the first Bushtucker Trial tonight.

Punchlines or Punches?

During the premiere episode, Ruby made comments that have drawn mixed reactions. After Alex Scott asked how to address Angry Ginge, he replied with: “Ginge or Morgan.” Ruby’s response, “We’ll never call you that,” was perceived by some as dismissive. Further controversy arose when she quipped about his surname, Burtwistle, indicating a preference for his stage name.

• Ruby instructed Angry Ginge to stay out of her light, saying, “Don’t ever in this show get in my way.”
• Some viewers found her humor enjoyable, while others labeled her as the “rudest celeb” in the show’s history.
• Social media users expressed their disdain, demanding Ruby’s removal with hashtags and even humorous GIFs.

Not all fans echoed these sentiments. Supporters of Ruby defended her sharp wit, asserting that her comedic style belongs to a different era of humor that may not resonate with younger audiences. One fan hailed her as a “comedy legend,” while another remarked on the controversy as a sign of her iconic status.

Predictions for the Show

Ruby’s friend, Kathy Lette, appeared on the show *Lorraine* to discuss Ruby’s chances of winning. She believes Ruby has strong potential, suggesting that Jack Osbourne may provide her toughest competition. Lette confidently stated that Ruby is poised to be the “Queen of the Jungle.”

As the series progresses, viewers will have to wait and see how Ruby’s presence will impact the dynamics in the camp. The excitement continues tonight at 9 PM.
