McFly: 'Dougie Poynter doing I'm a Celebrity could end our careers'

McFly have admitted that they are worried Dougie Poynter's stint on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! could end their music careers.

Fellow bandmates Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones revealed that they have warned Poynter to behave himself while in the jungle.

"The only advice we gave Dougie before he went in was to keep his mouth shut," Fletcher told the Daily Star. "We watch it nervously. I don't trust his mouth. He could say something controversial. We're just waiting for him to say something stupid and career-ending.

"We do think he can win. Mark Wright is the favourite and they're both heartthrobs, but Dougie is just a normal guy and he has a kind heart so hopefully that will come across. I just hope he doesn't upset anyone. By, like, slapping them across the face with a fish or anything."

Jones added: "We don't know whether to vote for him to do the challenges or not, it's confusing. Obviously we want to see him do them so we can laugh. It's so funny for us."

Earlier this week, I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! bosses were said to be "livid" after discovering that Poynter and Mark Wright are secretly communicating with their loved ones.
