I'M A Celeb has given us its fair share of sexy scenes over the years, from naked showers, sensual massages and jungle romances.

But now the iconic waterfall wash might be getting chucked on the scrap heap if celebs decide to cover up.

Producer Olly Nash told The Sun: “It’s funny, they (celebs) have all asked about that this year, but most people just cover themselves up.

“And it’s absolutely changed. I think the whole world has changed, hasn’t it a lot over the years?

“People are less likely to get in there and want to flaunt themselves.”

The shower isn’t the only chance celebs take to get a little bit steamy in the hot jungle.

From boxer David Haye's bum cheeks to Katie Price, 46, and Peter Andre, 51, falling in love through a rather intimate massage, we look back at some of the show's sexiest moments.

Myleene's white bikini

Where Myleene Klass went first, every other celeb followed.

The former Hear’Say singer, 46, set the tone for I'm A Celeb's shower scenes back in 2006 when she flaunted her amazing figure in a small white bikini and became an instant hit with viewers.

It was so iconic that viewers began looking out for "Myleene moments" in every series afterwards. And they weren't disappointed, with everyone from Helen Flanagan, 34, to Melanie Sykes, 54, enjoying their own waterfall moments.

The radio presenter has also said it was responsible for reinvigorating her showbiz career.

She previously told The Mirror: "If it wasn’t for that bikini, I’d have probably retrained as a midwife."

The Katie and Peter show

It was the love story that we all watched unfold live on TV

Model Katie and singer Peter quickly developed an attraction in the 2004 series and couldn’t keep their hands off each other.

The cameras often captured them getting touchy-feely in hammocks and enjoying romantic cuddles by the campfire.

In one scene, the former glamour model, 46, mysteriously lost her bra while getting a back massage from Peter, 51, forcing her to cover her modesty with her hands.

The pair married a year after leaving the jungle and had children Junior and Princess. But the jungle love story didn't end well, as they divorced in 2012.

Mark’s model rub down

Mark Wright, 37, recreated the massage moment when he offered to give Australian model Emily Scott, 41, a back rub on the 2011 edition of the ITV show.

After completing a Bushtucker Trial, Mark offered to give her a massage and asked if he could undo her bikini top.

After she happily agreed, the former TOWIE star straddled her and proceeded to give her a rubdown.

And it wasn't the pair's only raunchy moment on the show. Mark – who admitted to fancying Emily when he was younger – gave the model a complete eyeful as he stripped completely naked in front of her.

He enjoyed a solo shower before clambering out and standing stark naked right before the Aussie model.

Former heavyweight champion David Haye gave the nation a cheeky glimpse at his bum as he stripped completely naked to shower during his stint on the show in 2012.

Speaking about the moment, he said: "Sorry if I offended anybody at home with my buttocks, but there comes a time when you’ve gotta have a shower."

The boxing champ, 44, didn’t seem fazed despite knowing all eyes and cameras were on him.

He proudly showed off his rear to passing wallabies and Ashley Roberts, 43 – who was next up to use the shower.

Joel’s six pack

Stand-up comedian Joel, 39, got everyone hot under the collar within hours of entering the I’m A Celeb camp in 2016. 

He took on the famous waterfall shower for a seriously sexy moment in the first episode. 

Stripping off, he revealed his VERY impressive six pack.

Twitter fans went mad as they said: "Joel is literally gorgeous!!”

“No social life for the next three weeks!" one fan wrote, while another said: "I have the biggest crush on Joel already." 

When Amy met Joey

Joey Essex, 34, brought a tear to our eyes when he admitted to camp mate Amy Willerton that he couldn't tell the time.

He opened up to model Amy saying it was just so much easier to look at his phone than work out a clock face.

That led Amy to teach Joey the ancient art of time-telling – and their 2013 jungle love story blossomed from there, with the couple even showering together and sharing massages.

Sadly, their romance fizzled just a few weeks after leaving the jungle, with Amy recently telling us she felt pressured into a ‘showmance’.

Carol twerks it out

She's been named rear of the year twice, so it is no wonder she will happily shake her famous booty.

Carol Vorderman, 63, and her fellow 2016 camp mates were in a celebratory mood after winning a jungle challenge and being treated to a party with music and snacks in the Jungle Arms.

She and Ola Jordan, 42, Sam Quek, 36, and Scarlett Moffatt, 34, wasted no time in hitting the campfire dance floor when Beyonce's Crazy in Love blasted through the Jungle Jukebox.

All four ladies strutted their stuff and showed off their impressive twerking skills.

Marc and Cerys’ controversial flirting

Only in the jungle could EastEnders lothario Gianni di Marco romance a Welsh rock star in a dirty old hammock.

But that's what happened when Marc Bannerman, 51, and Catatonia front woman Cerys Matthews, 55, bonded in the jungle in 2007 with tender caresses and lingering glances.

Their romance blossomed around the campfire in front of millions of TV viewers – including Bannerman's girlfriend, Footballers' Wives actress Sarah Matravers, who dumped him over his jungle behaviour.

But the jungle fling didn't last, and Cerys ditched the EastEnders star a few months later.

Spencer and Vicky’s jungle chemistry

It was the collab between Made in Chelsea and Geordie Shore that nobody knew we needed.

Despite the fact that Spencer was only in the jungle for three days the chemistry between him and Vicky around the campfire was electric.

The pair ended up dating for seven months after flying home from Australia, before Vicky claimed Spencer dumped her because he couldn't understand her accent.

I'm A Celebrity 2024

As the hit ITV show enters into its 24th series, a brand new batch of famous faces look set to enter the Aussie jungle once again to face terrifying Bushtucker Trials and living amongst the critters in camp in order to come out on top and be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle. The Sun's Jake Penkethman takes a look at the stars heading Down Under this year...

  • Coleen Rooney – Arguably the most famous name heading into the camp, the leading WAG, known for her marriage to Wayne Rooney, will be making a grand return to TV as she looks to put the Wagatha Christie scandal behind her. The Sun revealed the mum-of-four had bagged an eye-watering deal worth over £1.5million to head into the camp this year making her the highest-paid contestant ever.
  • Tulisa – The popstar and former X Factor judge looks set to be making a triumphant TV comeback by signing up to this year’s I’m A Celeb after shunning TV shows for many years.

  • Alan Halsall – The actor, known for playing the long-running role of Tyrone Dobbs on ITV soap opera Coronation Street, was originally signed up to head Down Under last year but an operation threw his scheduled appearance off-course. Now he will be hoping to become the latest Corrie star to win over both the viewers and his fellow celebrities when he gets into camp.
  • Melvin Odoom – The Radio DJ has become a regular face on TV screens after rising to fame with presenting roles on Kiss FM, BBC Radio 1 and 4Music. He has already been for a spin on the Strictly dancefloor and co-hosted The Xtra Factor with Rochelle Humes in 2015 but now he is facing up to his biggest challenge yet – the Aussie jungle.

He is also considered a rising star on ITV as he’s now one of the mentors on their Saturday night talent show, The Voice, along with bandmate Tom. A jungle insider said: “As well as bringing some of the star appeal of the group with him, he’ll be supplying some serious guy candy for the campmates and viewers at home.”

Since then, she has competed on Dancing On Ice as well as hosting the Irish version of the beauty contest, Glow Up.
