I’m A Celebrity… South Africa viewers saw tensions rise as the two camps finally joined together.
Tensions were at an all-time high during the latest episode of I’m A Celebrity… South Africa.
On Thursday night (April 9), ITV fans saw the two camps finally reunite as Gemma Collins, Adam Thomas, Seann Walsh, Beverley Callard left Savannah Scrub.
However, as they were joined with the other celebrities, Sinitta wasted no time in letting her feelings known to Gemma.
She said: “What happened with Chicago? You were supposed to follow me as Mama Morton in Chicago, it was announced and everything.”
Gemma explained that she had a ‘terrible’ injury, telling Sinitta is was something to do with the insurance. However, Sinitta confessed that when it was announced Gemma was joining the cast, they thought it was a joke.
Unimpressed, Gemma added: “Not a joke, Sinitta, I auditioned for it and got it fair and square. Did all the training and everything. Had the voice coach.”
Sinitta continued: “I’m sorry, but I’m going to admit it, that when I heard, I thought it was a joke announcement, I was like, ‘Yeah right’.
Clearly unimpressed, Gemma asked why she thought that it wouldn’t be real, as Sinitta highlighted her fall while presenting at an awards show, stating she felt more like a comedian.
Meanwhile, some of the other campmates watched on awkwardly as Scarlett Moffatt hid in her hammock, mouthing to Seann Walsh, ‘What is happening?’
Comparing her to Zsa Zsa Gabor, Sinitta added: “Very camp, very glamorous. But I thought you were that girl. Like, you don’t really do anything, you make a great entrance, and you make everybody laugh. But, I didn’t know you could actually sing, dance and all of that, and all that jazz.”
Biting back, Gemma said: “I don’t think you’d get casted as Mama Morton in Chicago if you didn’t pass the audition.”
In the Bush Telegraph, Gemma explained she was taken aback by Sinitta’s comments, stating she’s not a joke.
It wasn’t long before people watching took to X to share their thoughts on what happened, with many unimpressed by Sinitta’s comments.
One person said: “How rude of sinitta!” Another commented: “Sinitta to go as well.”
Someone else wrote: “Get Sinitta and David Haye OUT.” While one viewer added: “I think Sinitta feels a bit threatened by the possibility of loss of screen time since Gemma Collins joined main camp.”
Another fan commented: “Sinitta thinking she better than Gemma.” While someone else wrote: “Sinitta calling the GC a joke?? Like really??”
I’m A Celebrity…South Africa airs weekdays at 9pm on ITV, ITVX, STV and STV Player.
