Myleene Klass to present US 'I'm A Celebrity...'
Wednesday, 20 May 2009
Myleene Klass is to present the US version of 'I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!'.
The British beauty - who saw her career revived after appearing as a contestant in the UK version of the show - has signed a £100,000 deal with US network NBC.
She will fly out to Costa Rica this weekend to film the three-week series which sees stars living in the jungle.
A source said: "She has been offered it but because she has got to go away for the whole month she has got to get out of her UK commitments.
"But everyone is hopeful that the people she works for will be understanding as it is a great opportunity. She doesn't want to let anyone down.
"She has been in the US having meetings with all the networks. She must have bowled them over to go in as an unknown and get this job."
The mother-of-one already presents 'Ten Years Younger' in the UK, has a film show on news network CNN and a radio show in the UK as well as modelling for high street chain Marks and Spencer.
'I'm A Celebrity...' has been aired once before in the US, which saw Jennifer Lopez's ex-husband Cris Judd crowned 'King of the Jungle'.
The show is one of the biggest ratings winners in the UK with its eighth series airing last November, which saw with former 'EastEnders' actor Joe Swash win.
