November 10, 200916 yr I'm not a big crier in situations, but i don't think i'll be able to handle death of a close one. I tend to be very calm in bad situations. When my brother had a seizure, my sister got all panicy and running around. I just went out my normal morning because the last thing my mom needed was me asking questions and panicing. I cried later when she said to me, "Do you even care about him" :( If my condition took a huge turn for the worse and was told I had a few years to live, I would accept it, it wouldn't be easy but I would go down fighting and making the most of every last minute! :) That's not very nice what your mum said :( But I guess everyone deals with situations differently! :)

November 23, 200916 yr Author She's out! Katie Price quits I'm A Celebrity after being picked for seventh bushtucker trial By Simon Cable and Charlotte Spratt Last updated at 10:06 AM on 23rd November 2009 Comments (259) Add to My Stories Katie Price finally decided she had suffered enough last night and walked out of the I'm A Celebrity jungle after being asked to do yet another bushtucker trial. The glamour model has been doused in 60,000 cockroaches, made to crawl through rat-infested tunnels and eaten a ton of creepy-crawlies during her week in camp. The public has voted for her to take part in for every single trial, with varying degrees of success, but she cracked after being told she faced a seventh, along with the former boxer Joe Bugner. The 31-year-old fled to the Bush Telegraph and had a discussion with the producer of the show. A message on the ITV website later read: 'Katie Price has left the jungle.' Katie Price has quit I'm A Celebrity after being voted for her seventh bushtucker trial in a row Writing on her Twitter micro-blogging page around 6am UK time this morning, she said: 'Hey thank you for all your support!! I tried my best.' However, without any photographic evidence, it is impossible to confirm her departure. And this morning there are already suspicions that her exit had been well plotted in advance. It was widely touted before her arrival that she had agreed a deal to spend less time in the jungle than other celebs and both she and TV chiefs would have known she would be nominated for the majority of trials. Her tag on the show is 'businesswoman' and it seems unlikely she would walk out on her £350,000 fee, whatever horrors she had to endure. However, whether her spell in camp was fixed or not - she has without doubt had a punishing time. The star, flanked by TV presenters Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan, declared she was not going to take part in the bushtucker trial Last night, after winning 11 stars in her sixth trial, she learned from Ant and Dec that she had been nominated again. She told her fellow contestants she would refuse. 'Someone else has to do it. I'm just not doing it any more. The model was picked alongside Bugner for the Bad Pit trial. More... I'm A Celebrity: Katie Price retches as she eats disgusting animal body parts... and is voted for a sixth trial Marry me Katie: Alex Reid flies into the jungle to propose The sense of unfairness was increased by the fact that George Hamilton was once more ruled out of taking part because of a medical condition. Price is not the first contestant to feel victimised, John Fashanu was nominated for a host of successive trials and the record is held by former model, Janice Dickinson, who survived 10 in 2007. Her sixth trial: In Car-lamity, the model had to eat a fried bug wrapped in a bun and flies, along with a crocolate milkshake The takeout: Katie managed to eat the French Flies and a Krunch Fried Bug but passed on the milkshake Price arrived in camp proclaiming that she wanted to rehabilitate herself in the eyes of the public following her split from Peter Andre but she's been so busy chomping on kangaroo testicles, crickets and fish eyes, she's barely got a word out on the subject. And so, having complained of 'mental torture' after her fifth trial on Saturday's show, last night she had to endure more insects, being gunged and walking through cobwebs in an attempt to win food. Ahead of the challenge she said: 'I just want to go home, I'm bored. How many more can a girl possibly do? 'The public have seen me with bugs, terrified, they’ve seen me cry. 'So today I said to camp, "It will just be like me going to the office. I’ll get there, I’ll tremble, I’ll cry, I’ll moan, do the challenge come back and then I can chill for the day and me and Jimmy we can just watch and wait for our food."' Car-lamity: The star pulls up in the car to the drive-thru But she won all but one of the possible 12 after an easy task, which she accepted was actually 'quite fun'. She drove a truck to a fuel stop, where she was gunged and to a drive-through where she ate Krunchy Fried Bug and French Flies. But she refused to drink a Crocolate milkshake after tasting it. She exclaimed: 'Do you know its mentally torturing? I’m starting to feel a bit sick.' Price then had to break through a roadworks sign and had to retrieve the three stars which were entangled in cobwebs and protected by spiders. She screamed: 'Oh that's horrific! There's no easy way in. I'm petrified of spiders.' The final station was a Car Wash where she had to remove three stars while being sprayed by orange wax. Jungle fun: Katie screamed as she had to pull stars out of a cobweb that was crawling with spiders She once again pleaded with the public, wailing: 'Please don't vote me tomorrow, please, I've had enough. 'Everyone else, give them something to do. You've seen me struggle, you've seen me cry, shake, want to die. There's only certain things I can do. 'I really don't want to be doing this.' Price claimed she would sacrifice the £350,000 fee if life got much harder. Arachnophobia: She claimed she was 'petrified' of spiders She added: 'Look if I walk out, then I don't need the money. Others in there do. I don't. I've got money. I have just done a big book tour. This isn't about the money anyway.' The star's friends, make-up artist Gary Cockerill and DIY expert Phil Turner, yesterday landed in Australia to greet the star when she eventually leaves the show, but insisted she would not quit the jungle. Despite her ordeal, Phil told the Mail: 'Katie is not a quitter. Everyone would be terrified of the trials that she’s done in the jungle. They are genuinely scary challenges, but she is doing amazingly.' When asked if the pair were upset at the British public for voting Katie to do all of the Bushtucker Trials, Gary explained: 'No. I think everyone is misreading that. 'People want to Katie doing the trials because she’s the most interesting person in there. And let’s face it, there are a lot of boring people in there.' Gunge: She was covered in a black liquid at the fuel stop and had to find the stars from it to win meals Back at the camp, Kim Woodburn revealed she had a strained relationship with Aggie McKenzie - her co-presenter on How Clean Is Your House? She told fellow contestant Colin McAllister she knew she wanted to 'go it alone' after finishing the latest series and said the pair have 'no contact' when they are not filming. He said: 'That's weird. Even if you were just being polite because it's your bread and butter. Because you're a partnership.' 'Rude man': Kim Woodburn argues with boxer Joe Bugner after accusing him of patronising Stuart Manning Intervention: Katie tries to calm down the situation between the pair Kim has also been rowing with retired boxer Joe Bugner and took exception to how he had spoken to actor Stuart Manning about cooking dinner, and to Katie when he asked if she would volunteer for another trial. She even approached him saying: 'You disgust me' and then branded him a 'rude man'. Joe responded by telling her she had a 'couple of loose ones' as he tapped his head. They made up after Kim stormed off to the caravan and Justin Ryan went to comfort her. He told her not to let the 'bullier become the bullied' and brought her back by saying the 'bully would win' if she stayed there. Joe claims Kim has 'a couple (of screws) loose' Joe is making it a habit to upset his fellow camp mates The remaining camp mates in Exile were also given their last chance to win immunity from the first vote off and return to base camp. George Hamilton, Lucy Benjamin, Sam Fox and Gino D'Acampo had to sit in their own boat on a lake and simply indicate when they thought when an hour had elapsed by ringing a bell. Gino took a methodical approach to the task and counted by tapping on the side of his boat. Sam also tried to count but was interrupted by George chatting. Slow boat to nowhere: The exiled camp mates had to guess when an hour was up and ring a bell He had a more laissez-faire attitude and chatted away to Sam and Lucy. After a while he got bored and sounded off his bell closely followed by Lucy, Sam and Gino. He was then revealed as the winner, having rung his bell at 59 minutes, 58 seconds. It means that Gino, Sam and Lucy are the three celebrities facing the jungle boot in tonight’s live eviction. The three contestants will be subject to a public vote this evening and the person with the fewest votes will leave the jungle. Heart to heart: Kim tells Stuart that she did not get on with her TV presenting co-star Aggie McKenzie Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/celebrity/article-1230045/Im-A-Celebrity-Shes-Katie-Price-quits-picked-seventh-Bushtucker-trial.html#ixzz0XfyhVtJe
November 23, 200916 yr Author LAUREN BOOTH: 60,000 cockroaches, 10,000 crickets, six giant breasts... and not one belly laugh By Lauren Booth Last updated at 10:39 PM on 22nd November 2009 Comments (18) Add to My Stories One night last week, I had to ask myself why (like 11million others) I’d spent time watching pettiness, cruelty and fake belching, passed off as ‘entertainment’, on ITV1. That’s right, I’ve been watching series nine of I’m A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out Of Here! It wasn’t always like this. Since 2002, the brilliance of twinning random ‘names’ from the worlds of media and entertainment with a survival situation, then giving them challenging tasks to complete, has never been bettered in the reality genre. Not for sheer ingenuity, sheer nerve. And not for humour. Torturous: Katie Price suffers after another bushtucker trial In the first series we watched agape as society snorter Tara Palmer-Tomkinson flirted in bikini and desert boots with end-of-the-pier Lothario Darren Day. Meanwhile, back at base camp, Rhona Cameron, the lesbian comedienne, squared up to born-again boxer Nigel Benn who, clutching a Bible, questioned the right of gays to exist. Rhona came back (if I remember correctly) with a delicious salvo, along the lines of ‘that’s rich coming from a thug who smashes people’s faces in for a living. What’s God got to say about that then, eh, eh?’ Bingo! We were well and truly hooked. But hooked on what, precisely? The year I took part, I remember sitting in the camp one afternoon watching Liza Minnelli’s ex-husband, David Gest, being groomed like a giant chimp. As Jason Donovan checked David’s nose for stray hairs, Gesty entertained the rest of us with talk of a charity he was supposedly helping, called ‘Chinese Girls With Herpes’. He followed on, as Myleene Klass offered to wash his pants, with a riff about a night-time-only theme park in the US for ‘Alb-eye-nose’. Surely some of the best comic repartee ITV has aired since Auf Wiedersehen, Pet in the Eighties. Oh yeah, and in between the verbal high jinks, occasional sexual chemistry and the murderous arguments, each year there are testing bushtucker trials. Because, make no mistake (and boy, have the producers made a howler this year), it was the drama within the camp, that rich tapestry of allegiances intermingled with a caustic blend of bravado and just a small dash of insecurity, that made this show an annual attraction. It was not, as the producers have mistakenly come to believe, the thirst for ritual humiliation at the cost of human dignity that kept us glued for 18 consecutive evenings. Entertaining: David Gest was a much-loved contestant on I'm A Celebrity... Cut to the new series. New elements have been brought in, some old ones dropped. Out: quirky, lovable characters like Christopher Biggins, Tony Blackburn and Carol Thatcher. In: a handful of unrecognisable gay men and six giant breasts – attached to two former topless models and one hefty matron who presents a cleaning show. Out: the tension of that two or three-week wait for the first plate of marsupial genitalia to be put before a celebrity, someone we at home have developed a viewing relationship with. In: a first-hour trial where ‘former’ model Sam Fox (too old for the majority of viewers to recognise) and chef Gino D’Acampo (no, I don’t know either) held spiders in their mouths for 30 seconds. Worst of all has been the much hyped return of Amazonian chav Jordan. Four times Katie Price, paid £350,000 for her stint in the camp, has been chosen by the viewing public to undertake bushtucker trials. Being afraid of water, she emerged from an underground trial, of the usual insect and near-drowning kind, having a panic attack. The highly trained on-site medic, Doctor Bob, had his hands full calming her down so that a rather stunned-looking Ant and Dec could remember to laugh at her cockroach-covered breasts. It was sad. The three of them were all just that bit too ‘knowing’ to make the moment free of the cringe factor. One of the phrases Jordan most uses as she’s about to face yet another trial is: ‘I don’t want to do this any more.’ Referring, we can sense, to the whole reality industry, to her own compulsive need to stay in the public eye. Cruel: In the first hour Sam Fox had to hold a spider in her mouth for 30 seconds Meanwhile, Ant and Dec get up at 3am each morning in order to begin viewing the previous day’s tapes. They then incorporate the ‘best’ moments into that day’s script. Hard work. Harder if there is no repartee to play with, as is the case here, in a show where an Italian chef’s prosaic commentary – in an Italian waiter’s accent – warrants as much coverage as Jordan’s bikini line. The stats speak for themselves: 60,000 cockroaches, 10,000 crickets and two buckets of mealworms. All squirted, poured or tipped over Jordan so far. Here’s another stat, one that ITV should consider: ten hours of viewing devoid of a single belly laugh or a moment’s joy. Car crash TV, complete with breakdowns, was Big Brother’s speciality. The show lived, and then died, on this cruel formula. Stripped bare of the giggles that a high-level cast can provide, without the silliness of a Biggins or the danger of a Johnny Rotten, this is an increasingly explicit version of a Japanese torture show. I’m A Celebrity has become a bushtucker trial for fans like me. Katie Price retched while trying to drink ‘Beetle Juice’. The new (and if there is any justice, last) series of IACGMOOH is leaving an equally bad taste in viewers’ mouths.
