Blend together 10 of the most pampered celebrities, a treacherous jungle and a handful of nerve-wrecking tasks and Voila…. the perfect recipe for television’s most exciting reality show is ready to serve! STAR World presents “I’m a Celebrity Get me Out of Here!” starting 21st July 2009 at 9pm.

I am a Celebrity,follows a group of pampered stars who are dropped into the Costa Rican jungle minus their mobile phones and other things and forced to fend for themselves. As the celebrities take part in a series of endurance-testing trials to win luxury items and avoid elimination, cameras will capture their every meltdown and mishap. US viewers will then vote on who will ultimately be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle. The last celebrity standing wins a cash prize for their favorite charity.

The celebrity cast includes brothers Daniel and Stephen Baldwin, Golden Globe nominee Lou Diamond Phillips, retired pro wrestler Torrie Wilson, comedy duo Frangela (Frances Callier and Angela V. Shelton) and one-time pro basketball player John Salley. Other cast members found their fame on reality TV, including American Idol finalist Sanjaya Malakar, former Top Model judge Janice Dickinson and The Hills’ Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.

After its first week on air, I’m a Celebrity had become the most buzzed-about show of TV’s summer season. When Montag and Pratt quit the show after just four days in the jungle, then returned to the set asking to be reinstated, it sparked headlines, feature articles and online chatter throughout the US.

I’m a Celebrity premieres first on STAR WORLD on Tue, 21 July at 9pm. Following its launch, the series will air every Mon and Tue at 9pm.
