With the 2024 series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! now just months away, rumours are heating up nicely about which celebs will head over to the famous Australian jungle, with Jeremy Clarkson now heavily tipped!

According to betideas.com, the Clarkson's Farm star is rumoured for a number of reality shows following the final episode of The Grand Tour, including I'm A Celeb, Strictly Come Dancing, Dancing On Ice, and Celebrity Big Brother, but I'm A Celeb comes out on top in the odds.

A spokesperson said: “Following the final episode of The Grand Tour, people are wondering where Jeremy Clarkson will appear on our screens next, and a stint in the Jungle on I’m a Celebrity looks a likely destination.

“Clarkson has been on plenty of excursions through deserts and jungles, hence why he’s as short as 3/1 to appear in the upcoming series of I’m a Celebrity later this year. The TV presenter is also 7/1 to make a return to the BBC in any capacity, with features on Celebrity Big Brother 2025 (8/1), Strictly Come Dancing 2025 (14/1) and next year’s Dancing on Ice (16/1) all potential avenues for Clarkson.”

Check out which other celebs are rumoured for I'm A Celeb 2024:

Coleen Rooney

According to reports in October, Coleen Rooney has signed up for this year's series for a 'record breaking fee'. Coleen is a huge fan of the show, so bosses are reportedly buzzing that she's signed the dotted line.

Ally McCoist

Scottish football legend Ally McCoist is reportedly in 'advanced talks' with bosses to appear on the 2024 series. The pundit has turned down the show twice in the past, so could 2024 be his year?

Tom Daley

After winning his fifth Olympic medal during the Paris 2024 Olympics, diver Tom Daley announced his retirement from the sport after the games, and now bosses are reportedly keen to sign him up for I'm A Celeb!

Tulisa

According to reports, N-Dubz star Tulisa is 'in talks' with I'm A Celeb bosses in an attempt to kickstart her TV career back up.

Jeremy Clarkson

Following the last ever series of The Grand Tour, rumours are rife that Jeremy Clarkson is in demand with reality TV shows, with I'm A Celeb reportedly top of the list!

Tommy Fury

Following his shock split from Love Island fiancée Molly-Mae Hague in August, bookies were tipping Tommy Fury to sign up for the 2024 series! Ladbrokes said: "Reality TV chiefs will surely be queuing up to snap up Molly-Mae or Tommy following their shock split, and the odds suggest the latter could well be jungle-bound later this year."

However, just weeks before the start date, reports are rife that Tommy has pulled out of the show after getting a better offer for a rematch against KSI.

Maura Higgins

With the news that Tommy has now pulled out of the show, rumours are rife that his fellow Love Island star Maura Higgins will replace him!

Mick McCarthy

After departing his managerial position at Blackpool FC last year, Mick McCarthy is now being tipped to head into the jungle!

Reverend Richard Coles

He's no stranger to reality TV having appeared on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2017, but now it sounds like Reverend Richard Coles could be about to swap his dancing shoes for the jungle. According to reports, Richard has signed up for this year's series.

Giovanni Pernice

Following his removal from Strictly Come Dancing, ITV/STV bosses are reportedly keen to sign up Giovanni Pernice for the 2024 series, with Mail Online suggesting they are ready to splash out ÂŁ100,000 to sign him.

Jane Moore

According to reports by Mail Online, I'm A Celeb bosses have signed Loose Women star Jane Moore, following her split from her husband of 20 years, Gary Farrow. According to the reports, Jane would like to join the show to conquer new tasks.

Alan Halsall

Coronation Street star Alan Halsall has been in the rumour mill for a number of years now and it's understood he was due to appear in 2023, before picking up a nasty ACL injury which resulted in him needing major surgery. It's now being reported that bosses are keen to sign Alan for the 2024 show.

Oti Mabuse

Having appeared on both Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing On Ice, professional dancer Oti Mabuse is no stranger to TV, and if reports are to be believed, she could be adding I'm A Celeb to her CV. Rumours are rife that Oti has signed up for the show, with bosses 'over the moon' to land her signature.

Olivia Attwood

As fans will know, reality star Olivia Attwood was forced to quit the 2022 series due to medical reasons, leaving her gutted. Olivia later hinted she could return for the 2023 series, admitting she'd had chats with bosses during an appearance on Loose Women.


However, after Olivia didn't appear in the 2023 series, could she feature on the 2024 line-up?

Alex Beresford

Good Morning Britain weather reporter Alex Beresford has recently expressed interest in appearing on I'm A Celeb. He told the Mirror: "Out of all the shows I would love to do, I would love to do the jungle."


Alex recently appeared on BBC One's Celebrity Race Across The World.

Danny Dyer

Since Danny Dyer left his iconic role as Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on EastEnders last year, he's been heavily rumoured for I'm A Celeb.


Of course, his family are no strangers to reality TV, with Danny's daughter Dani winning Love Island back in 2018.

Denise van Outen

The lovely Denise van Outen is no stranger to reality shows, having appeared on the likes of Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Gogglebox in recent years.


Denise has previously admitted she turned down the offer in 2021, so will 2024 be her year?

The Vivienne

RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner The Vivienne recently admitted she would love to appear on I'm A Celeb during a chat with Lorraine.


She said: "Do you know what, I've never thought about it but what an absolutely amazing opportunity that would be."

Phil Taylor

Ever since he admitted he'd 'love' to appear on the show a number of years ago, darts legend Phil Taylor has been heavily rumoured every year. As he's not yet entered the jungle, could 2024 be his year?

Will Mellor

Following his stint on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, it seems actor Will Mellor has the reality TV bug, as he's admitted to his friend and former co-star Ralf Little he'd fancy appearing on I'm A Celeb. Could 2024 be his year?

Richard Arnold

Good Morning Britain's entertainment presenter Richard Arnold is usually the one travelling over to Australia to report on the cast, but if rumours are to be believed, he could be taking part this year!

Harry Clark

The Traitors series two winner Harry Clark is reportedly being lined-up for the 2024 series. At the beginning of July, Harry appeared on Lorraine where he confessed he'd love to take part! Will we see him in the jungle?

ITV/STV bosses are yet to confirm any names above.

Of course, Jeremy Clarkson is no stranger to being on TV. The petrol head presented Top Gear between 1988 and 2015 on the BBC, featuring in a huge 399 episodes, before taking his own version of the show, The Grand Tour, over to Prime Video alongside Richard Hammond and James May.

As well as presenting Who Wants To Be A Millionare? in the last few years, Jezza has also won over the nation on his Prime Video show Clarkson's Farm, which documents him working alongside Kaleb Cooper in an attempt to run his Diddly Squat Farm.

Following three successful series of the show, filming is now taking place for series four, with Jeremy hinting it could land next May.

In recent weeks, Jeremy has opened his very own pub The Farmer's Dog in the Cotswolds.
