I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here

Wayne Bridge

Occupation: Former England footballerAge: 36Phobias: Absolutely everything! Rats, spiders, cockroaches, snakes, claustrophobia, sleeping in the Jungle...Biggest misconception you want to dispel in the Jungle: I want people to get to know me. I've not given many interviews in the past or put myself in front of the cameraRole in the Camp: The person to initiate games, fun and exerciseMiss most: Aside from my wife and children, my phone, bed, pillow and sugarDream Campmate: Floyd Mayweather

Retired footballer Wayne has played for some of the biggest clubs in the UK, but when it comes to his life in the public eye, he admits that people tend to know only two things about him.

"This whole thing is so different for me. People either say 'I am famous for playing football' or some might say 'I am famous for not shaking someone's hand' but I would like people to get to know me for who I am."

Playing in front of thousands of people each week might have been a doddle for Bridge, but taking on the Jungle? Now that's a whole new ball game. For starters, he's basically scared of everything you might come across Down Under. "My fellow footballers will be shocked I'm doing something like this." He admits. "I am bricking myself. I am so nervous and scared of everything." Don't worry Wayne, you're in good hands with us.
