This year’s series of I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here will give viewers the chance to mess with the campmates before they've even entered the jungle in a new twist.

Show bosses have announced that fans will have more power than ever as they'll be able to choose who the contestants are paired with for their entrance to camp.

The new feature was revealed via the I’m A Celebrity Instagram account, with a video of the celebs discussing the personality they’d least like to be paired with.

The post read: “This year, YOU have the power to pair up the Celebrities for their journey into Camp! All it takes is a few taps on our app. Search ‘I’m A Celebrity’ in your app store to get started!”

In the clip, boxer Amir Khan said he hoped not to be teamed with someone ‘arrogant’ or ‘stuck up’

While Rebekah Vardy commented: “My worst nightmare would be to be paired with someone that doesn’t get stuck in, that just moans.”

Dennis Wise, on the other hand, reckoned he could handle whoever the voters match him with.

“I can deal with big personalities, I’ve had Vinnie Jones as best man at my wedding,” he joked.

I’m A Celeb fans can vote for their preferred celeb pairs by downloading the show’s app.

It’s just a few days until the group head into the jungle, but their entrance into camp won’t be a case of simply walking in and choosing their bunk.

The campmates usually have to earn their I’m A Celeb stripes by launching themselves out of a helicopter, so those who are afraid of heights will be hoping they’re paired with someone sympathetic.

I’m A Celebrity begins Sunday, November 19 at 9pm on ITV.
