I’m A Celebrity South Africa fans took aim at Gemma Collins during last night’s episode (Wednesday, April 8) over her “diva” behaviour.

Gemma is one of several familiar faces giving the show a second shot in South Africa – and she’s already got viewers talking.

Last night saw Gemma and Craig Charles’ Bushtucker trial take place.

Fighting for a place in the main camp, or the…rather sparse…Savannah Scrub.

In the trial, Gemma and Craig had to eat and drink Fish Eye Pie, Terror-rine, Brain Freeze, and Bloody Moory Shots.

The player who committed to the highest number of servings had to eat or drink the entire pledged amount in a bid to win a point for their team.

Gemma struggled to stomach some of the dishes, but made it to the final round, where she and Craig had to drink the shots.

Craig drank a whole tray of the shots, booking his place in the main camp, and condemning Gemma to the Savannah Scrub.

Gemma’s moaning

Later, in the Savannah Scrub, whilst lying on her basic wooden bed, Gemma moaned, “This is so bad. I want someone to call my agent if they’re listening because this is not acceptable!”

“Are you regretting coming back?” the star was asked.

“Yeah,” she replied. “What have I done in my life to deserve this?” she then asked, before describing the conditions as “rancid”.

“It is just hell basically,” she declared.

Describing her new surroundings, she said: “This is taking redemption to whole new levels. I’ve walked in, it’s like something out of Bedrock, The Flintstones.

“It is just awful. There’s a strange toilet, there’s a very strange shower. Oh, honey, I’m telling you now, I ain’t showering!” she said.

Gemma Collins slammed by I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers

Fans of the show weren’t impressed by Gemma’s moaning during last night’s show.

“Nothing worse than someone going on I’m a celebrity and moaning the whole time. I’m not a fan of Gemma Collins, and after 30 minutes tonight, I like her even less. Stop [bleeping] moaning, you spoiled brat,” one fan fumed.

“‘I don’t know what I’ve done in my life to deserve this’. so absolutely nothing to do with the big fat [bleep] off £ signs in your eyes, right Gemma?” another wrote.

“Obsessed with Gemma complaining when she knows what she’s signed up for,” a third wrote.

“Is Gemma forgetting that she signed up for this?” another asked.

“No one forced you to go in,” a fifth said.
