EVERY year I'm A Celebrity hits out TV screens with more antics from the campmates, and gruesome Bushtucker Trials.<\/p>\n
But there can also be only one winner, and some viewers may wonder what the King or Queen of the Jungle gets as a prize.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Every year, I'm A Celebrity sees the campmates undertake extreme living conditions in the Aussie jungle, minimum food rations, and disgusting Bushtucker Trials.<\/p>\n
After being whittled down over a few weeks, only three celebrities get to compete in the final.<\/p>\n
Now you'd think after undergoing such horrible conditions, the winner would get a HUGE prize – but that is not the case.<\/p>\n
The winner gets given a crown and a ceremonial staff,\u00a0and gets to sit on a specially made throne.<\/p>\n
But let's not forget they get the prestigious title of King or Queen of the Jungle, after being voted for by the public.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, for the I'm A Celebrity… South Africa spin-off all stars series, winner Myleene Klass was awarded a different title, as the viewers don't get to vote.<\/p>\n She was crowned the\u00a0first-ever legend of the ITV show.<\/p>\n Speaking to\u00a0ITV's Lorraine, hosts\u00a0Ant and Dec previously explained more about how it worked.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Ant\u00a0said: \u201cIt's slightly different to the show we do in Australia because they go head to head in trials and whoever loses leaves.<\/p>\n "It\u2019s quite brutal, so that\u2019s how we decided the winner.\u201d<\/p>\n Dec\u00a0added: "So, they're competing to become the first ever I'm A Celebrity<\/span> \u2018Legend of the Savanna\u2019… It\u2019s very special.\u201d<\/p>\n The celebs agree a pay package before they enter the camp which can be anywhere between \u00a330,000 and \u00a3000,000. <\/p>\n Unlike Strictly where all the stars get the same amount of money to take part, campmates on I'm A Celebrity can demand a fee.<\/p>\n Olympian Mo Farah was reported to have pocketed a whopping \u00a3300,000 for appearing on the show while professional dancer AJ Pritchard was estimated to have banked a lower fee of \u00a350,000. <\/p>\n Caitlyn Jenner also reportedly banked \u00a3500,000.<\/p>\n However, being crowned winner of I'm A Celebrity also brings with it a lot of clout.<\/p>\n Many of the show's kings and queens have gone onto huge success, which has seen their bank balance increase massively.<\/p>\n Radio DJ Tony Blackburn won the first series of I'm a Celebrity in 2002. <\/p>\n He defeated the late socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson and author Christine Hamilton<\/span> to pick up the gong of King of the Jungle. <\/p>\n A firm favourite from the start, Tony and Tara both managed to remain safe from the public vote throughout their two week stay.<\/p>\n He took part in three trials during his time in the jungle – the Sneaky Snake Run (winning 2\/6 stars), the spider web (winning 3\/4) and the final trial with Tara, which he completed successfully.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/picture>GOD SAVE THE KINGS & QUEENS <\/span><\/p>\n
