OHMYGOSSIP — Fred Sirieix’s friend Gordon Ramsay told him not to “take any s***” on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.
The ‘First Dates’ star is taking part in the tough jungle survival show and ahead of him going into camp, he got a call with some blunt advice from his straight-talking pal – who he appeared with alongside Gino D’Acampo on their ‘Road Trip’ series – and he’s planning to take it on board.
He told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: “Gordon called me. He told me, ‘Fred don’t take any s***’. That’s what he said.
“I am a very honest and truthful person and I think that’s the way to go and that’s the way I live my life. I think that dealing with conflict is something that’s difficult for any human being and people are not so sometimes prepared to deal with conflict.”
Fred will be joined in camp by the likes of Nigel Farage, Nella Rose, Jamie Lynn Spears and Grace Dent and while the 51-year-old star has “no idea” what it will be like spending so much time with a group of strangers, he’s ready for anything.
He said: “I have no idea of what it’s going to be like to live with these people, what they’re going to be like, but I am very ready mentally and physically. I cannot be more ready than I am. You don’t know what he’s going to be like until you get there.”
And the Frenchman is in it to win it.
He said: “I’d never undertake anything without wanting to win I am naturally very competitive.
“Of course you want to win and you want to win in the right way and have fun while you’re doing it. And you do your best and then you just go for it.”
‘I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!’ starts on ITV1 and ITVX on Sunday 19 November at 9pm.
