I’m A Celeb Fans Outraged Over ‘Rigged’ Trial as Immunity Sparks Cheating Row

The latest I’m A Celeb trial triggers a cheating scandal as fans say rules were ignored when Vogue won immunity despite throwing up.

Fans of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! erupted online after last night’s stomach-churning drinking trial, dubbing it the “most rigged episode ever.”

The challenge, which saw contestants gulp down revolting cocktail-style concoctions, quickly became the centre of controversy, with viewers accusing producers of unfair rule changes and questionable outcomes.

The trial, dubbed Cocktails of Cruelty, pitted members of rival camps against each other, with winners securing immunity from the looming first public vote.

Losers, meanwhile, were left vulnerable to elimination. However, it was the handling of the challenge that sparked the outrage. Many viewers were particularly critical of podcaster Vogue Williams, who faced off against model Kelly Brook in a contest that fans described as “unfair” and “rule-changing.”

Although Vogue managed to down the foul-tasting drink, she immediately threw it back up—yet immunity was still awarded to her. Social media was flooded with complaints from viewers who felt the rules were inconsistently applied.

One fan wrote: “Biggest rigged episode ever. Aitch won that drinking challenge. Ginge had loads left. Ruby and Tom spilt loads. Vogue threw up but nothing happened to them.

” Another added: “Vogue should’ve been disqualified as she immediately threw her drink back up the moment she put the glass on the table. She did not confirm that her mouth was empty once finishing the drink.”

Other fans questioned the integrity of the challenge. “Wait, but Vogue threw it all up and Kelly finished hers?? I thought if it comes back up then it doesn’t count,” commented one viewer, while another added: “Vogue didn’t confirm that she had finished her drink and immediately threw it all back up. If you threw up the trial right after, doesn’t that mean you lost?”

The controversy didn’t stop there. Rapper Aitch went head-to-head with YouTuber Angry Ginge, with both contestants disqualified after spilling the majority of their foul-smelling drinks.

Fans also speculated that Aitch may have lost the trial deliberately, amid growing jungle romance speculation with EastEnders star Shona McGarty.

The pair have been openly flirting in the camp, with fellow contestants suggesting they could make a good couple after both recently split from their partners.

Amid the chaos of the trial, viewers are now bracing for the next public vote. Presenters Ant and Dec confirmed that seven contestants are facing elimination this week.

Those up for eviction include former footballer Alex Scott, comedian Ruby Wax, model Kelly Brook, Jack Osbourne, Martin Kemp, and the two contestants involved in last night’s controversy, Aitch and Angry Ginge.

The trial has reignited ongoing debates about fairness in the I’m A Celeb jungle, with fans calling for clearer rules and consistency in the challenges.

Social media users have suggested that producers may be manipulating outcomes to heighten drama, particularly in high-profile challenges with immunity at stake.

Despite the uproar, the jungle continues to captivate viewers with its mix of extreme trials, celebrity drama, and budding romances. With the first public vote looming, tensions are high both in the camp and among viewers, making it one of the most talked-about episodes of the series so far.
