Janet Street Porter’s celebrity supporter, Elton John, has sympathy for the other contestants who will have to share their jungle adventure with the outspoken writer and broadcaster!
When Janet told him she was taking part in the show he was more worried about the other celebrities than he was his own friend.
Janet says: “When I told Elton that I was going he just p***ed himself laughing and he said ‘I feel sorry for the other people, I don’t care who they are, I feel the utmost sympathy.’
“It’s true, and I said: ‘What about me? I’ve got to cope.’ He replied: ‘Janet think of what it is going to be like for them!’”
But, despite her concerns, Janet is very well prepared for the experience - she has done an eight-day trek in the Australian desert and walked through a tropical rain forest in New Zealand.
She has some thoughts though on the show’s presenters Ant and Dec: “I would describe Ant and Dec as two boiled eggs on sticks and the reason is those huge foreheads!
“Now Ant and Dec, don’t be too mad at me, but you do look a little but like those Mekons from the Eagle comic way back in the 1960s.”
Now, that’s not really the way to get on the right side of people is it, Janet… |
