I’m A Celeb's GK Barry once pledged to 'outdo' star now joining her in jungle
I'm A Celeb contestant GK Barry has a hilarious link to another celebrity entering the jungle tonight.
The 25-year-old internet personality has gained a whopping 3.6 million followers on TikTok, with over 270 million likes, in just four years on the platform.
GK also has a loyal following on her YouTube channel where she uploads the Saving Grace podcast, a candid chat show centred around her interviews with other influencers and celebrities. She most recently interviewed award-winning comedian Alan Carr.
Another famous face that has been the subject of GK's content is soon-to-be I'm A Celeb rival Tulisa Contostavlos, who she referenced in a 2022 video.

Taking to TikTok to share "embarrassing" photos from her childhood, GK explained the stories behind various pictures. She started the video by revealing that she used to have Justin Bieber posters in her bedroom and explained that her haircut in the first photo, short at the back and long at the front, was inspired by Victoria Beckham but didn't live up to her expectations.
She went on to share pictures with her "pet peacock" named Fred and a snap from a tropical family holiday in Trinidad and Tobago.
Later in the video, GK shared a photo of herself wearing lime green trousers with zips halfway down the legs and divulged: "This was [taken during] my N-Dubz phase. Also, those trousers unzipped into shorts, so some could say I'm a fashion Icon. In this outfit I thought I could really outdo Tulisa."
Tulisa shot to fame as a member of the hip-hop trio N-Dubz, alongside her cousin Dappy and rapper Fazer. The group formed in the early 2000s and gained mainstream recognition between 2007 and 2010, when they won a string of MOBO Awards and were nominated for a BRIT.
At just 23 years old, Tulisa joined the panel of judges on the X-Factor, replacing Girls Aloud alum Cheryl Tweedy.
Now, GK will be living in the same jungle as the popstar, but will she let Tulisa know about her fangirl phase? Only time will tell.
I'm A Celebrity....Get Me Out Of Here returns tonight at 9pm on ITV1
