David Gest, riding high on his success in the I’m A Celebrity jungle, has just been offered his own fly on the wall style show with ITV.

It will be a behind the scenes look at the life of the man who counts Michael Jackson as one of his best friends.

“This is just the kind of show I wanted to do. It’s going to be an absolute blast.

“I really can’t wait for everyone to meet Vaginica,” said Gest, 53.

The David Gest Show will be made by the same team behind I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.

He said: “I have been astounded by the incredible reaction and the thousands upon thousands of letters I have received since leaving the jungle.

“It has been mind-boggling and I want to thank the public for their overwhelming support.”

The show will be screened later this year.

Layla Smith, ITV1’s controller of alternative programmes, said: “He was the star of I’m A Celebrity - an absolute revelation and completely captivating.

“We can’t wait to go behind the scenes with the man himself - the nation want to see it and we are delighted he has chosen ITV for what is sure to be a fascinating series.”
