Simon Webbe: 'I'm afraid of everything'

Simon Webbe has confessed that he is "afraid of everything" ahead of his stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!.

The former Blue singer admitted that he is unsure why he is taking part in the reality show as he does not like heights, water or creepy-crawlies.

"I'm afraid of everything, to be honest. I'm not ashamed to say it, maybe when I was younger I would turn around and say 'I'm not afraid of anything', but I'm a 30-year-old man so I can't be bothered with that anymore," he said.

Webbe also revealed that he thinks his songwriting skills will help him get on with his fellow contestants.

"I study human beings; that's my job, that's why I write songs. So for me I'm just an observer. I've been an observer for a long time and I'll make my mind up once I get there," he said.
