Former I’m A Celebrity stars Phil Tufnell and Dean Gaffney have backed Barry McGuigan to be crowned King of the Jungle this year. Tufnell – who won the second series of the show back in 2003 – said former boxer Barry McGuigan could win this year's series - as he says it would be 'great' if a fellow sportsman won. Speaking with Betway, he said: “You just don’t know. One of the appeals of the show is that the winner could be anyone. There are some very familiar faces, but some who you don’t quite know.

You never really know who people are and how they’ll get on. They gradually start settling in and discovering new things about themselves. Barry McGuigan would be great to win, I’ve also met Danny [Jones] and he’s a great guy. I’ve also met Oti Mabuse a couple of times. But the winner could be someone you’re least expecting.” And while Dean Gaffney reckons Coleen Rooney will win the show, he thinks McGuigan is the “dark horse”. “Coleen Rooney is my pick to win the series,” he told Heart Bingo. “I think she’s come across really well so far. She was obviously asked about the Wagatha Christie situation early on in the series by Dean McCullough, but she handled it well and didn’t escalate the situation. She’s done well to not bring it up herself I think – it seems to be quite deliberate. He said: “My dark horse to win the series? I’d probably go with Barry McGuigan. He probably wasn’t very well known to a lot of the viewers at the start – I’m looking at the current cast and there’s YouTube and social media stars in camp, so the general audience for the series will definitely be younger than when I was on, for example. “I however think he’s come across really well in the first few episodes. He seems to be well-liked in camp and some of the older viewers – people from my generation and older who watch the show – will already know him well and respect his achievements. “If he’s not voted off in the first few rounds, then I reckon he’s got more support behind him than people think – he could easily go very far in the series.” The Eastenders star also spoke about new arrival Maura Higgins , who he thinks having joined the camp late may not have much time to bed in and make friends. “You obviously want to spend your first few days in camp making friends and not causing any problems, but late arrivals like Maura Higgins won’t really have time to do that,” said Gaffney. “She’s coming in after less than a week since the start of the show, but people seem to forget how quickly campmates start getting voted off. “She was a big personality on Love Island who caused a few stirs, but this is a totally different environment. However, she’ll need to get her personality across to the viewers quickly because the nature of the voting means you can’t just fade into the background. “If people were voting to kick you off, then you’d be fine, but they’re voting to save you so you need to stand out and give them a reason to do that.” Join the Irish Mirror’s breaking news service on WhatsApp. Click this link to receive breaking news and the latest headlines direct to your phone.

I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here viewers have demanded Richard Coles and Loose Women star GK Barry work together again after the show. The pair have bonded during their time in the jungle and fans of the show are sure they would make a fantastic double act when they are back in the real world. @ImaCelebriTea posted an image of the pair and insisted: "Put them on Celebrity Gogglebox the moment they leave because their stories are unbelievable!! #ImaCeleb #imacelebrity2024 #ImaCelebrity." @xxncisaddictxx commented: "Can't deny GK and Richard are an hilarious duo #imacelebrity #ImACeleb."@RoslynMoore96 pleaded: "Can GK Barry have Reverend Richard on her podcast please and thank you #ImACeleb #imacelebrity." @Peter_H_Todd thought the duo would work well with fellow campmate Maura Higgins writing: "For me, @ITV needs to sign the rights for a new era of Generation Game & sign GK Barry / Maura and Rev. Richard as hosts. Those three would be absolutely perfect as game show hosts." Meanwhile @TVpsychologist pondered: "The relationship between GK Barry and Rev Richard is just a joy. Under any other circumstances they would never even meet, let alone connect so brilliantly. We all have the capacity for this, we just need the opportunities #ImACelebrity." One of their funniest moments on the latest edition of the show (December 3) came when GK confessed she used to be a goth and showed off the pose she had used for her social media sites. This led Richard to hilariously ask what was the difference between a goth and an emu - confusing the bird with the emo subculture. He also later appeared to forget the words to his own hit song as the campmates performed karaoke in the Jungle Arms. As the group all sang along to his band The Communards' number one smash hit Don't Leave Me This Way he seemed to be uncertain of the lyrics. Richard has become a fan favourite and is creeping up on Danny Jones and Coleen Rooney in the betting. Coleen is currently the second favourite to win at 13/8, while McFly's Danny Jones remains the favourite at 11/8, according to betting giants Ladbrokes. However Richard is now at 4/1 to take home the crown. He is the only other contestant with a price shorter than 20/1. DJ Melvin Odoom became the latest celebrity eliminated on tonight's show leaving just eight contestants to battle it out to win. I'm a Celebrity ...Get Me Out Of Here is on iTV and ITVX nightly at 9pm.

Buckle up: Western icon Judy Wagner stars in new documentaryTech billionaire Elon Musk faced accusations of censorship Friday from fellow conservatives after several prominent right-wing accounts who had criticized Musk’s views on immigration said that they subsequently lost access to premium features on Musk’s social media app, X. At least 14 conservative accounts said late Thursday or Friday that X had revoked their blue verification badge, cutting them off from a variety of premium features, including the ability to monetize their accounts through subscriptions and advertising revenue-sharing, according to a review conducted by NBC News . Some accounts said the number of those affected was far higher. The accounts were all still active Friday, but without access to monetization features; some of them said they worried about their ability to keep posting. Some conservatives said they considered X’s actions to be a betrayal by Musk, who purchased the service then known as Twitter in 2022 in part because he said it had unfairly limited conservative speech . Musk has since called himself a free-expression advocate, even as he calls for jailing some of his critics . Musk and X did not respond to requests for comment on Friday. But on Thursday night, about an hour before some conservatives started complaining about losing access to X’s premium features, Musk posted what he called “a reminder” on X. He wrote that the site’s algorithm automatically reduces the reach of a user if they’re frequently blocked or muted by other, credible users. “If far more credible, verified subscriber accounts (not bots) mute/block your account compared to those who like your posts, your reach will decline significantly,” Musk posted . But rather than satisfying people complaining about censorship, the post elicited even more accusations that Musk was shadowbanning his conservative critics, or reducing engagement on their posts without officially disclosing such actions to affected accounts. The actions by X came in the middle of a heated online debate on the subject of future immigration policy under President-elect Donald Trump, with anti-immigration MAGA loyalists denouncing the influence of pro-immigration tech executives and investors such as Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. Many of the affected accounts said they were affiliated with one media brand in particular, ConservativeOG. Preston Parra, a 23-year-old influencer and head of ConservativeOG, said he considered the actions by X to be a “political takedown” in retaliation for publicly disagreeing with Musk’s pro-immigration views. He said he plans to keep fighting Musk, not only to get his premium features restored but also to ensure that Trump pursues restrictionist immigration policies. “If anyone thinks for one minute the REAL backbone of the right wing and MAGA is gonna stand idly by while these big tech gillionaire Silicon Valley dweebs who didn’t get bullied enough in high school, steal our country, they’re mistaken,” Parra said in a text message. He said he believes Musk to be a “Trojan horse” in the Trump camp. Trump announced that Musk and Ramaswamy would lead a new “Department of Government Efficiency,” to much fanfare, shortly after the Nov. 5 election. But in recent days, after venture capitalist Sriram Krishnan was announced as a White House adviser on AI policy, Trump’s tech-world allies — including Musk and Ramaswamy — have come under deeper scrutiny and criticism from the far-right for their previous statements about or involvement with legal immigration. Musk is an immigrant, having been born and raised in South Africa. He became a U.S. citizen in 2002. This story first appeared on NBCNews.com. More from NBC News:

Philadelphia news 24/7: Watch NBC10 free wherever you are In a Thursday interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer , E.l.f. Beauty CEO Tarang Amin denied recent accusations from a high-profile short seller who said the cosmetics company has been overstating its revenue, calling the report "absolute nonsense." "The facts are, we just finished our 23 rd consecutive quarter of net sales and market share growth, and our company's extremely healthy, has terrific controls on inventory, on revenue recognition and is very well-run," Amin said. "This is a short seller trying to manipulate the stock down at the expense of other shareholders." Hedge fund Muddy Waters said Wednesday that it had shorted shares of E.l.f., alleging that the cosmetics company had overstated its inventory numbers. Amin said E.l.f. asked the U.S. Customs and Border Protection in February to keep its import data confidential for "competitive reasons," so Muddy Waters' claims don't hold weight. E.l.f. has seen growth even as peers in the beauty industry struggle with an inflated consumer landscape. Amin has said previously that his company's low prices draw in consumers who feel stretched and highlighted the viral success of some of its digital marketing campaigns. But Muddy Waters claimed its proof of deceit goes beyond import data. "In addition to the import data, Muddy Waters confirmed with three of E.l.f.'s four major suppliers that E.l.f.'s purchases have declined this calendar year," Muddy Waters founder Carson Block told CNBC in a statement. "One of the suppliers stated E.l.f.'s purchases were down due to E.l.f. working down its inventory balance. It's telling that E.l.f's response failed to address our finding that E.l.f.'s inventory increase could not have been due to a sourcing process change." Amin dismissed these allegations, citing net sales growth from the previous quarter and consumer data outlets that show E.l.f. gaining market share. "If you look at our consumption on Nielson and Circana, it's extremely strong," he said. "In fact, we built up inventory to be able to meet the strong demand that we're seeing not only in the U.S., but also internationally, our international business was up 91% last quarter."
