I’m A Celebrity Star Upset by Ungrateful Campmates, Fans React

Viewers of the reality show “I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!” have expressed their dissatisfaction with the campmates’ response to Martin Kemp’s recent achievement. This reaction followed the December 4 episode, during which Kemp and co-star Tom Read Wilson successfully completed a challenging Bushtucker Trial.

Martin Kemp’s Bushtucker Trial Performance

In the latest episode, Martin Kemp, a pop legend, teamed up with Tom Read Wilson. They entered a makeshift library in the jungle, where Tom had to find books based on Martin’s clues. The challenge was completed with various creepy critters being dropped on Martin, adding to the tension of the trial.

The duo managed to secure five out of seven stars, which translated into five meals for the entire camp. However, their campmates did not respond with the enthusiasm one might expect.

Campmates’ Reaction

When Martin and Tom shared their success with the group, the response was noticeably lukewarm. Rapper Aitch remarked on the Bush Telegraph that he “expected more from Tom.” Other campmates minimized the achievement by noting they still had rice available, which left Martin feeling somewhat disheartened.

Later, Martin expressed his disappointment in the Bush Telegraph, noting, “It was a more mixed reaction than I thought.” He highlighted the passive-aggressive nature of the comments regarding their rice supply.

Viewer Reactions and Support for Martin Kemp

Fans took to social media to voice their support for Martin and Tom, condemning the camp for their ungratefulness. Many viewers felt that five stars should be recognized as a significant victory, not dismissed.

  • One fan tweeted, “Aww poor Martin – didn’t like that reaction! 5/7 is basically 8.5/12.”
  • Another stated, “Aw saying at least they got rice is making Martin not feel 100% how is 5/7 not good?”
  • Several viewers pointed out the inconsistency in the campmates’ reactions, noting that their success should be acknowledged given the small group size.
  • Supportive comments included, “Well done Martin and Tom. Take no notice of those whingers.”

Overall, viewer reactions highlight a growing frustration with the dynamics within the camp, particularly in light of Martin and Tom’s commendable performance. As the season progresses, the audience continues to rally behind the duo, advocating for greater appreciation of their efforts.

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! is available for streaming on ITVX, where fans can follow the latest developments in the camp.
