Kerry may have been dubbed the whinger, but she could be called the winner after bookies William Hll have said that she stands ’a far greater chance of being Queen of the Jungle’; and have given her odds of 7/2.

Go Girls! - 2 Feb 04
Kerry and Jordan had the ’eating the bugs’ trial, and both did astoundingly well chowing down live cockroaches and the like.

The bushtuckers trial was the infamous ’Bite for Bite’, and the celebs chosen were fearless Jordan and Kerry, the blonde babe who gets freaked out by any sort of creepie crawlie. Good choice fella’s. Anyway, the girls dressed up for the occasion, with Jordan selecting to wear just her bikini bottoms with her top - leading John Lydon to snigger that at least they were dressed for the camera’s as they set off hand in hand.

Ant and Dec, grinning from ear to ear like evil pixies, served up dishes consisting of live bugs to the two girls, who looked grimly determined, even Kerry. They ate a handful of green ants, and wriggly mealworms, but both women quailed before the scuttling cockroaches. However, Jordan managed to eat the required two, and a bit (bite) later so did Kerry. Hats off to you both, there’s not many viewers who would have done that, believe me. The biggest challenge in more ways than one was eating the large witchety grub. That looked bloody awful, pulsating slowly across the plate, and neither celebs were comforted by being told they tasted like ’peanut yoghurt’. Kerry tried her hardest; she managed to pick one up and bite into it, but had to throw it away in disgust. Jordan however, managed to bite down, and had to stretch the thing between her teeth in order to get its head off, before swallowing the rest of the three inch bug. Respect.

The one thing both girls couldn’t do were the fish eyes. Kerry took a hasty closer look and declared hers had ’conjunctivitis’, and Jordan managed to put it in her mouth and bite, but it splurted blood everywhere, so she spat it out.

Between them they managed seven meals for the celebs, and went back to camp telling tall fishy tales of shark eyes ’two-and-a-half inches wide’!

Kerry was so poor she had to sell pet parrot - 30 Jan 04
Before she joined Atomic Kitten, Kerry said she was so poor she had to sell her pet parrot to get money to buy tampons.

She said ’Three weeks before I got into Atomic Kitten, I had to sell my parrot for 20 quid to buy Tampax - that’s how bad it was. He was called Alfie and I used to sing Rockin’ Robin to him and he’d nod his head along."

She later confessed to being in love with Ant and Dec, but that her heart belongs to hubby Brian. ’Nobody compares to my Brian, nobody, if I was in a room on my own with Colin Farrell and he said to me you and me now, no-one need know about it, without a doubt I would definitely say no and I mean that. My Brian’s my life, he is my rock and my strength. I love him, I love him, I love him!"

Calm down girl, we get the picture.

Kerry’s trial - 29 Jan 04
It shows what a sadistic viewing lot we are - we watched Kerry having problems walking through the jungle and promptly vote for her to face a challenge.

Kerry was sick when she realized she was chosen to do the Jungle Houdini challenge. She tried to get out of the task by offering free Westlife tickets to the producers, who strangley enough were unmoved. However, when it was her turn to meet Ant and Dec she looked determined and wore a bright turquoise bikini top, which was brighter than her face by the time she got a look at her task.
