Kitten scratches to victory
Published February 10, 2004
Well, if you put some cash of former Kitten Kerry McFadden to become Queen of the Jungle back when the bookies had here down as a 20:1 outsider then you're a little better off this morning. McFadden won the final viewer vote
yesterday - putting Peter Andre into third place and former BBC reporter
Jennie Bond into second place. McFadden's million pound prize will go to the
Variety Club in Ireland.
On winning Kerry told viewers: "Oh my god. I'm gobsmacked. It was nothing
like I expected - I didn't watch the last series - so I just thought I'd getpissed every day. I love all of the other contestants, they're fantastic; we're all winners. I didn't think I'd come this far, not after the first day when I cocked up. Jennie did that and she's the Queen to me. Never in a million years did I think I'd be sitting here. I'm numb, it doesn't feel real."
Much speculation now as to which of the celebs will be able to cash in
post-jungle. Consensus is both Jordan and Andre will be offered tabloid cash
for their respective sides of the (almost) jungle fling, and could get some more music or TV work following their time on the show. Those in the know reckon as winner McFadden should secure some more TV work and that John Lydon could cash in should he choose to (let's hope he sticks to his guns and turns it all down).
But the unsuspected winner is likely to be Lord Brocket - word is the "token toff" has already been offering a TV quiz show, an option on his life story and a cash sum to shoot a nude centrefold for a women's magazine. The only offer not on the table is to become a spokesman for the RSPCA - animal charities have hit out after Brocket dropped a goldfish into his glass of champagne after coming out of the jungle the other night.
