I’M A Celebrity hasn’t even started yet and already some believe that music legend Boy George will be crowned this year’s jungle champion.
While there are definitely some fan favourites forming before its even begun, there’s one person who seems primed to come out on top.
ITV viewers have predicted the Karma Chameleon star, 61, will come out on top with the support of his loyal fans.
One wrote: “He has to be favourite to win with his strong character and favourite to be first to walk off hope he stays the distance #BoyGeorge #ImACeleb”
Another posted: “I predict Boy George to win and Hancock to be first out.”
A third echoed: “So it’s Boy George to win for me and it’s not too difficult to guess who will be first out if there’s any justice.”

It comes after Boy George revealed his fears at annoying his campmates with a special night-time routine.
The singer told The Sun that he “chants” every night before going to bed.
He admitted he doesn’t sleep a lot because he finds sleep a “bit of a hindrance” because he can’t get things done.
Instead of bickering over the I’m A Celeb firepit, George revealed that he intends to take himself away from the other stars, who include Love Island’s Olivia Attwood and politician Matt Hancock.
The hitmaker eplained: “I’m going to obviously do yoga and I chant and I know that will annoy some people — so I can hopefully find a space where I can do that because I think that will keep me more sane.”
George, who is this year’s oldest campmate, said he signed up for the show only after being persuaded by hosts Ant and Dec.
He said: “I went on Saturday Night Takeaway a while back and I feel like I was set up by Ant and Dec because they asked me, ‘What does Karma Chameleon mean?’
“And I was like, ‘Never having to do I’m A Celebrity’, as a kind of joke. And then they said to me, ‘What would make you do it?’
“I said, ‘If you did like a vegan or vegetarian one’. I think I said vegan, but I am not vegan, I am vegetarian. And they said, ‘We can!’ And I thought, ‘Oh sh**!’”
Odds experts CasinoAlpha believe comedian Babatunde Aleshe and music legend Boy George will be in the running, but the chances are Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner will go home as the champion.

According to historical data of previous I’m A Celebrity winners, 90% of jungle champions are in the original line-up, with late additions coming in at a massive disadvantage.
So that rules out comedian Seann Walsh, and former Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who is already been lined-up for a series of bushtucker trials by viewers.
I’m A Celebrity starts Sunday at 9pm on ITV.
