Naughty Boy threatens to quit 'I'm A Celebrity'...again
Naughty Boy has threatened to leave the I'm A Celebrity camp again, but changed his mind after winning all 11 stars in his bushtucker trial.
The music producer, who originally said he was going to quit over being in trial losers' camp The Clink for the first few days and complaining that the winning camp had nominated him for challenges, announced his intention to leave again in Friday's episode.

He told Snoochie Shy, Matty Lee and Danny Miller: “I want to make tonight a special night, as I will be leaving in the morning.”
The fed up contestant added: “I just think my time here is done.”
But Shy said: “I feel like your journey’s only just begun. If I had handcuffs I’d chain you to a chair, but I don’t.”
Naughty Boy replied: “At some point you do have to do what’s best for you.”
Speaking to camera in the Telegraph, he said: “I’m still planning to leave tomorrow. I feel like my journey here in the camp has come to an end. I can’t go against my spirit.”

The star told campmates: “I genuinely feel good about it. I don’t feel sad, I don’t feel like… I wouldn’t be leaving if I knew I haven’t challenged myself or overcome any fears because what’s the point of being here in the first place?
“It’ll be sad for me to go, honestly, I love all of you.”

However, Naughty Boy changed his mind once again after bagging the full 11 stars in his solo trial Creepy Closets, which saw him face his greatest fear - snakes.
As he told the camp he'd won them dinner, he said: "I was thinking of departing but I'm so glad I didn't.
“I hope my mum’s going to watch this and sees me do something sick and say, ‘That’s my son.’”
Naughty Boy lives with his mum, who has dementia, and has said he wanted to do I'm A Celebrity to raise awareness of the condition.
He said of his trial success: "I feel like this camp for the first time needed me as well and I didn't expect that."
However, Ant and Dec joked about his changing feelings, saying: "We've got the notes for tomorrow night's show...it says 'Naughty Boy is leaving camp'."
