I'm A Celebrity.....!!

For the past 2 weeks or so I have been watching one of my favourite programs on TV, I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! is usually on for about 3 weeks every year, it is a program famous for gathering a bunch of celebrities hasbeens, unheard of so called celebrities and WAGs, they are all put in a jungle in Australia and are left to fend for themselves living in horrible conditions, they have to do what is called a Bush Tucker Trial daily in order to win stars which they can exchange for food items that they have to cook themselves, the less stars they win the less food they have to share.
This year alongside the hasbeens and the WAGs, 2 major stars are taking part, they are Martina Navaratilova and George Takei from the Star Trek fame.
The daily bush tucker trial usually involves one or more of the contestants having to either eat the most disgusting food which can be cockroaches, worms and grubs and delicacies such as certain bits and pieces of animals that you wouldn't eat in your worst nightmares, I don't know what it is but most people (including myself) enjoy watching other people especially if they were annoying minor celebrities being tortured this way, it just makes great TV viewing.
The contestants are then voted out one by one on daily bases by the viewing public until one is left who will be crowned the King or the Queen of the jungle, this years favourite to win is ex-EastEnders actor Joe Swash.
Here is some clips that you might enjoy or might make you run for the bucket!
This first clip shows 2 contestants eating a selection of critters and delicacies, it really was my favourite clip (2 parts) the second part of this clip is even more Yummy :o)


This next clip, called the John Trevolting suite might make you scratch a bit!!


The next clip has David Van Day screaming like a girl :o)

There are many more clips on YouTube, there will be another trial tonight, I wonder who will be doing it!! I hope I didn't spoil your lunch or dinner, it is meant for entertainment, hope you all have a nice day :o)

Remember, all people taking part in these trials, do not have to do any of it, they have the optoion of opting out.

I am really surprised of you following this type of show, it is more like watching a tabloid tv show, full of tasteless sexual jokes, nudity and con ( asking the viewer to call a premium number to vote for a contestant) no difference from BB ( Big Brother show ) your reply might be this a bit of fun, but where do you draw the line? best wishes.

First of all
مع اني شفت البرنامج لكن ما قدرتش نتبعه ممكن ما فهمتش الفكرة كويس منه لكن عادة البرامج اللي نلقى فيها فكرة مجنونة وهبال وناس تخسر وتطلع وناس تفوز اشبح كيف ما نجيش جنبها بكل،لكن بعد ما قريت هذا الادراج حنجرب نعاود التفكير في الامر ونجرب نتبعه
ممكن ليش لا

from what I written that this program is full of hasbeens and WAGs and as the clips show, what I really enjoy are the bush tucker trials where they have to face their fears, the rest can be boring, try watching the trials, you might enjoy them.
I do actually prefer watching reality TV to normal TV.

try watching the trials, these are the funny bits of this program, the rest can be full of annouying has beens :o)

Why it bothers you that he does. I do not understand people start preaching about moral values to others and assuming they are perfect.

To me you are trying hard to find faults in people and forgetting about yourself.

Since we talking about your taste of using free time :-) & we are celebrating Thanksgiving in USA.

The Wall Street Journal bashes Muslims with lies through a misleading Thanksgiving Article.

I do not think that Ahmed watched this program, I think his comment is based on what he heard from others, to put the record straight, there is hardly any nudity in there and as for sexual language, well if you watch the clips I posted you will notice all bad language is Bleeped, in fact the adult content on this program is a alot less than an average movie you might watch (western or arabic).
thanks for the crackberry video, I like it :o)

the link for the thanksgiving article did not work, I will try again.
