I'm a Celebrity winner Angry Ginge has landed his first post-jungle job, set to present an award at next month's Brit Awards. The 24-year-old YouTuber, who revealed in the jungle he is a secret Taylor Swift fan, could hand the award to his idol if she wins Best International Artist.
Ginge, whose real name is not disclosed, won the ITV reality show last month, breaking voting records with his huge fanbase. ITV bosses hope his popularity will draw viewers to the Brits, which is moving to Manchester for the first time in its nearly 50-year history.
The King of the Jungle grew up in Eccles, Salford, and supports Manchester United, making him a local star for the relocated ceremony. A show source said: 'Organisers jumped at the chance to sign up Ginge, who is a proud local lad. He brings a huge audience, and the place will go mad when he walks out.'
Comedian Jack Whitehall, who studied at Manchester University, will host the awards for the sixth time on February 28 at the Co-op Live arena. Ginge was recently at Alexandra Palace to support his friend Luke Littler to a second PDC world darts title.
