Stats show who is most likely to win I'm A Celeb this year
McFly star Danny Jones has emerged as a frontrunner for the I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here crown, according to a Supercomputer.The BonusCodeBets.co.uk Supercomputer analysed the traits of all previous 23 Kings and Queens of the Jungle, finding that the most likely winner is a 36-year-old male musician or actor.
And out of this year’s crop, Jones almost perfectly matches that of a typical winner, being a male musician, and only two years older than the ideal age for a campmate.The lead guitarist will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of boyband champions including Westlife’s Kian Egan, Busted’s Matt Willis, and even fellow bandmate Dougie Poynter, who took home the crown in 2011.
Elsewhere, N-Dubz singer Tulisa might also fancy her chances of being ‘Number 1’ by matching the age and profession of our typical winner – but she doesn’t match with the right gender. Women have 10 victories to their name across the 23 series, while a King has been crowned on 13 occasions.

Former Love Island star Maura Higgins will be attempting to make it two wins in a row for reality TV stars – following on from Sam Thompson’s success last year – while Dancing on Ice judge Oti Mabuse will be looking to buck a trend by becoming the first international Queen of the Jungle, as well as the first dancer to win the show.
The bookies also seem to agree with the Supercomputer, making Danny Jones the 11/4 favourite, with YouTuber GK Barry (6/1) and ex-Love Islander Maura Higgins (13/2) close behind.
A spokesperson for BonusCodeBets.co.uk said: “Danny Jones ticks all the boxes of a classic I’m A Celebrity winner – he’s got the right profession, is the right gender and is only a couple years older than the ideal campmate.
“With the bookmakers and our Supercomputer both picking Danny to win, will the McFly star really go on to claim the crown? Well, as his band might say… Obviously.”
