This clue was revealed to be the legendary Peter Daicos, known as the “Magician” and “Wonder of Macedonia.”
Daicos scored an impressive 549 goals during his 15-year career, and since retiring he has been active as a speaker and commentator.
“As a former sportsman, after a career in the AFL, I couldn’t fill that void… which is actually pretty great. I’m mentally and physically prepared for what’s to come.” I’ve been trying to prepare for this. I’m looking forward to the challenge. It feels like a bit of a revelation for me. First and foremost, I think it’s a great experience and a challenge. ”
International Comedian: Stephen K. Amos
Clue: “This international comedian beloved by royalty is going to end up in the jungle. Let’s hope their stand-up works against the crocodiles.”
Widespread rumors had mentioned comedians Michael McIntyre and Jack Whitehall, but it turned out to be Stephen K. Amos. He is a BAFTA-nominated and RTS Award-winning comedian who has appeared on many panel shows and is now a celebrity.
Controversial TV Star: Michelle Bridges (eliminated)
Clue: “A controversial TV star is heading to the jungle.”
Fans wondered if this was a reference to just about everyone from “Married At First Sight,” “The Bachelor,” and even “Australian Survivor.” But it’s actually Michelle Bridges, a personal trainer and star of The Biggest Loser.
Bridges, an influential fitness personality and national health and wellness commentator, says she can’t wait to get into the jungle.
“I’m sure there are people in the audience who remember me from ‘The Biggest Loser,’ and I’m sure there are still people who think it’s ridiculous to walk into a room and ask them to start doing burpees and push-ups.” That’s not me. There is so much more to me than being a trainer. I would be happy if I could show that there is more to me than that. ”
Gold medalist: Ellie Cole
Clue: “Gold medalists are switching destinations from Paris to the jungles of Africa. That means they’re true pioneers.”
This clue has many potential answers, with people speculating everything from swimmer Ian Thorpe to runner Cathy Freeman.
But it’s Ellie Cole, Australia’s most decorated female Paralympic athlete. With 17 Paralympic medals, four Commonwealth titles, three world titles and nine Pan Pacific gold medals under her belt, she is aiming to test her mettle in the jungle.

Clue: “The rat from TV is coming to the jungle.”
Love Island Australia and Love Island Games alum Callum Hole is trading in his villa for the jungle, it has been revealed. Fortunately, he has priorities as to what to fear in the wild.
“The biggest problem for me would be not having a mirror at my disposal. I don’t have a mirror, I don’t have hairspray, I don’t have hair care products. That’s my biggest concern, Innit. There’s a lot of variation in my outfits. No! I wear beige all day, you know what I mean?
Celebrity Chef: Cain Ong
Clue: This celebrity chef has landed in the jungle and has a flair for competition and is sure to cause a stir!”
MasterChef Australia season 10 star Khaing Ong takes his cooking skills to the jungle. He has already appeared on ‘Australian Survivor’ and will be taking his survival skills to a new stage. As a gourmet, his backpack will be filled with condiments.
“I want to photograph more things than anyone has ever photographed. We’re talking about salt, but it’s inevitable. I love candy, and I love coffee. And I really want some spice. Maybe just a spice mix because that would make it interesting. If not, cumin or smoked paprika – this makes everything taste better – and of course chocolate. , I might have to dye my hair…I don’t want people to think I’m not naturally pink.”
International stage sensation: Tristan McManus
Clue: “Which international stage sensation is leaving his famous family for the jungles of Africa?”

Instead, TV and stage presenter, dancer, choreographer and former Studio 10 presenter Tristan McManus is seen exchanging family life for the wild nature. The Irishman, who has already appeared on Dancing with the Stars and Strictly Come Dancing, is no stranger to reality TV.

“They know how scared I am of everything. If I can show them what kind of person I am, and if you’re serious about something, you can crack it. If you just let them in…that it might help them overcome their fears. If mom can do that, then they can do whatever it is they’re scared of in life.”
Mega influencer: Skye Wheatley
Clue: “A huge influencer is coming to the jungle.”
Fans assumed it would be Skye Wheatley, and they were right. After winning hearts on Big Brother 2014, Wheatley has amassed a massive online following of over 1 million across his Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube channels.
“I hope people don’t think I’m a nuisance, because I cry, I scream, I get upset…I know it happens. I probably don’t think it’s hilarious. I’m more excited about my reaction because I feel like it’s going to entertain the public, but can I say I’m excited about overcoming fear?”
Hollywood child actor: Frankie Muniz (voluntary resignation)
Hint: “A Hollywood child star is heading into the jungle, but are you ready for a wild adventure?”
