I’m A Celebrity star Jessica Plummer reveals real reason she showered naked in castle

She had a cunning plan!

Jessica Plummer says she almost always showered naked in the I’m A Celebrity shower for a very good reason.

The former EastEnders actress, 28, mostly showered in the buff.

While the other I’m A Celeb campmates typically showered in their underwear or swimwear.

But Jessica says she deliberately didn’t want to create a sexy scene that would be repeated again and again on television.

As it did for Myleene Klass when her showering moment went viral after competing on 2006 on I’m A Celebrity.

What did Jess say about her shower scenes?

And she quickly realised that if she showered nude, the cameras wouldn’t zoom in.

Speaking to The Sun she explained: “Just get naked and have your shower and don’t worry, they cannot show it.”

Before adding: “So I was like, ‘Sod this, they’re not going to put my naked bottom on the show, I’m just going to take it all off’.

“And then the cameras just went ‘zoom’ and they then turned away and I was like, ‘Perfect. Every time!'”

Jessica exited the Welsh Castle on Tuesday night along with opera singer Russell Watson.

Jessica said: “Right now I’m just really looking forward to spending Christmas with my family, and eating some good food — and having long baths.”

Meanwhile, viewers were furious that Jess left. With many taking to Twitter to fume over her eviction.

Some even argued that they believe AJ Pritchard should have been evicted over her.

One viewer tweeted: “Who’s voting out all our great women #jess I’m gutted for you, you sweetheart.”

While another viewer vented: “Right. Who’s voting for AJ? Over Jess for gods sake?!”
