The YouTube star won the last series of the ITV jungle show

I’m A Celebrity’s Angry Ginge has reportedly swapped the jungle for the glamour of the BRITs – and he might even have the chance to present an award to his idol Taylor Swift.

The 24-year-old YouTube sensation, who confessed in the jungle that he’s a ‘Swiftie’, will reportedly be presenting an award at the upcoming awards ceremony, reports the Mirror.

With Taylor thought to be a likely nominee for best international artist, there is a chance that the star could be the one to present her with the award if she ends up winning on the night.

Angry Ginge was crowned the winner of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! last year, and ITV chiefs are apparently banking on his fans being equally eager to see their Jungle King at the BRITs.

The awards show is usually held in London but is relocating to Manchester for the first time in its nearly 50-year history.

A source was quoted as saying: “Organisers jumped at the chance to sign up Ginge, who is a proud local lad, and who obviously went down a storm in the jungle.

“The show is also on ITV, and the execs there love him following his heroics Down Under, and they really want to continue working with him.

“Ginge brings with him a huge audience, which awards bosses love, and so they jumped at the chance for Ginge to present an award. The place will go mad when he walks out.”

Comedian Jack Whitehall, a Manchester University alumnus, is set to host the awards for the sixth time when they take place on February 28 at the Co-op Live arena.

Expressing his excitement, he said: “The city I started my comedy career in, it feels like a real full circle moment returning to host this historic night at the Co-op Live, a venue that is only a stone’s throw away from the comedy club I did my first 10-minute set in all those years ago.

Hopefully, I get a few more laughs than I did that night. I cannot wait.”
