Jessie J is being eyed to star on ‘I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!’.
ITV bosses are keen to get the 32-year-old pop star and ex-England footballer Paul Merson on the hit show, in a bid to create their most star-studded line-up ever.
A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "The jungle is the jewel in ITV’s crown and they’re desperate to land top talent to keep viewers hooked.
"Paul is really keen to relaunch his TV career and thinks this is the best way to do it after he’s seen what it has done for his mate Harry Redknapp, but he needs it to be worth his while and is negotiating for a top price.
"Jessie’s been offered good money but isn’t sure that the show is for her. She is keen to put her music first."
Paul, 52, has previously been open about his alcohol, cocaine and gambling addictions.
And earlier this year, the former sports star spoke candidly about his experience with depression.
He shared: "I don’t want to kill myself any more. I don’t have those thoughts. I’m not carrying the world on my shoulders. I’m not beating myself up, drinking and gambling all the time and asking why I’m doing this to myself.
"It’s only now I know. I have an illness. I have a mental illness. I’ve accepted that now. Before, I used to beat myself up all the time, but the more you talk about it, the more it takes the power out of it.
"I’m telling you this because I hope it helps someone. If even one person reads this and it helps them, then it will be worth it."
