We had such an amazing time at Hits Live this weekend - taking Hits Live on the road to Liverpool on Friday 15th November, to Birmingham on Saturday 16th November and to Manchester on Sunday 17th November.

With an incredible line-up at all three events, we were honoured to have a sit down and a catch up with the wonderful performers - and you can read up on all our Hits Live interviews here.

As our Sunday gig coincided with the first episode of this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, we just had to ask our interviewees all about the show - and whether they'd ever go on it...

Hits Live artists: Who would go on I'm A Celebrity?

Lewis Capaldi

Everyone's favourite Scotsman told us he'd be well up for a stint in the I'm A Celeb jungle, "Sure, absolutely, I mean I'm not in it for the awards, I'm in this for cash. I tell you what, Caitlin Jenner is getting paid a mint for going on that show!"

James Arthur

Former X Factor star James Arthur umm-ed and ahh-ed over the prospect, "I know I'm a celebrity, I wouldn't say no to it. I don't know if I could put a spider in my mouth though... Just putting like a kangaroo's piece in my mouth or something like, I don't know.

"It's just I actually don't agree with a few of the things that they do. I'm not going to get too like animal rights on it, but some of it just makes me a bit uncomfortable. So we'd have to see.

"Biggest fear I reckon like being covered in rats or something or covered in like snakes something like that. I'd be alright; I'd get through it because I would be very much for the camp."

Craig David

Craig revealed he's got a friend in the jungle from whom he can get a couple of tips, "Do you know what I've got a lot of respect for the people who go in there, like James Haskell is a close friend, so seeing him go in...

"I'd like to tip for him to be the person that wins because he's so funny, the banter he has and he's going through UFC now, but as a rugby player just how much he achieved in his career as well. So he is going to bring such a good vibe to that camp.

"I think it's one of those things that I kind of have respect for, I don't think it's necessarily something that I would want to do, but it's like I generally say, 'Wow. for you to go and do those challenges, kudos to you', do you know what I mean? I know James is putting himself through it this time."

Jax Jones

Superstar DJ Jax Jones was straight up with the fact that he is not into I'm A Celeb whatsoever, "I don't watch because it's proper gross. If my career was in the absolute bin, i don't think I could go on it."

Jonas Blue

Jonas Blue was pretty relaxed about the whole idea, "Erm, yeah i think maybe somewhere down the line. Never say never. I'd have a problem with rats, nothing else just rats."
