I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! fans are worried about Tulisa Contostavlos as she failed to show up on spin-off show Unpakced.
The N-Dubz icon, 36, was something of a fan favourite while appearing as a contestant on the long-running ITV reality show’s 2024 season. On Monday night, viewers were sad to see her bid farewell to the camp as she was voted off the show.
However, fans were alarmed to learn she would not appear on Tuesday night’s instalment of spin-off series Unpacked on Tuesday night. The abrupt news came just hours after the singer erased all evidence she had been on I’m A Celeb from her social media accounts – and reports suggested she had been left “raging” over her time on the show.
Fans were confused to see her seemingly turn on the show after she had been filmed having a great time in the jungle. Viewers watched her bond with her fellow contestants, excel at trials, and win praise for her warm and nurturing nature.

But the singer has seemingly turned her back on her jungle experience – and fans grew more worried when Unpacked host Joel Dommett revealed she would not be on the spin-off show on Tuesday night. Addressing the cameras, Joel revealed: “Unfortunately we don’t have Tulisa on the show today.” A show source told the Mirror her absence was due to “personal reasons”.
His comments sparked a frenzy of speculation on social media – with many questioning where the N-Dubz icon was. One wrote on X: “Where’s Tulisa? Exclusive interview elsewhere? #ImaCeleb #unpacked.” And others questioned if there was a link between her absence and the sudden erasure of all the I’m A Celeb related posts that had been added to her Instagram page by her team while she was in the jungle.
One fan wrote: “Tulisa removed everything off her instagram to due with the show and now a no show for unpacked…something has pissed her off! #imaceleb.” And another asked: “Oh, what’ s up with Tulisa I wonder?*” #ImACeleb.” While a further viewer wrote: “Is Tulisa having a strop? Going on this show is a publicity move.. don’t f*ck it up. #ImACelebity #ImaCeleb.”
Tulisa reportedly doesn’t follow boxer Barry McGuigan, who is the only campmate she doesn’t have on social media. “Tulisa was in high spirits when she left the set, but something appears to have happened that’s left her raging,” a source told the Sun. “She wasn’t in a great mood for her post-show interviews and appears to be already distancing herself from the programme. It’s all a bit of a mystery at the moment.”
During her exit interview on Monday, Tulisa said: “You’re just going to be more grateful for everything. The food you eat, the people that you love… you don’t realise how good you’ve got it.” She also said it was “testing” in there, but she stayed true to herself. She appeared on ITV’s Lorraine on Tuesday morning, where she shared more details of her time in the I’m A Celebrity jungle as she hinted that not all of her famous friends were being as authentic as she had been.
