I’m A Celebrity stars switched their jungle outfits for a much more glamorous look at this year’s Sports Personality of the Year Awards. King of the jungle Angry Ginge beamed as he hit the red carpet and was quick to admit he missed his beloved football while in the Australian camp.
In a completely black outfit, he appeared dapper. He posed while wearing a smart suit, a black shirt, and a black tie, and had his arms folded while posing cleanly.
Campmate Alex Scott – whose fortunes were much shorter lived on the ITV show – also hit the carpet with her partner Jess Glynne. Former England star Alex looked stunning as she wear a maroon figure hugging gown.

Along with her partner, Jess chose to wear a striking black suit with denim detail.
Streamer Ginger explained to journalists at the ceremony at MediaCity in Salford that his favourite sporting moment of 2025 was: “Manchester United beating Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield. Maguire is unbelievable. I love him.”
And he joked that he was looking forward to meeting up with football icon Thierry Henry at the event. He claimed that the French superstar told him he was “unbelievable at centre half” when he played in a game in Qatar.
Since 2023, the duo has been dating. The couple made their relationship public in October of that year. Before going official, they had been dating for two months.
The pair looked smitten at the same event a year later, and Alex and Jess made an appearance. They also put on another beloved display at the time, with Jess displaying her partner’s chic gown. Former football player Alex shaved her locks to create an elegant updo for the occasion.
A silver necklace and stud earrings were the only items that were included in the plunging black dress to complete the look. In a black racerneck shirt and ties, Jess also looked effortlessly chic. She paired it with a pair of bootleg trousers.
Their relationship was further thrust into the limelight during Alex’s recent stint in the I’m A Celebrity jungle. It has since been claimed the pair could turn their back on the UK. Alex has been the face of the BBC’s flagship football programme – Football Focus – and also a regular on The One Show.
Ginge, meanwhile, has been revelling in his success. Following his crowning moment in the jungle, he was quickly mobbed by fans after landing back in Manchester.

The late Dr Jane Goodall adopted a bear in dire straits the year before she died – but tragically, never made it to the country to visit her at the sanctuary she started a new life in

Dr Jane clutching a photo of rescued moon bear, Robinson – who she ‘never stopped fighting for’
Trailblazing conservationist Dr Jane Goodall, who died in October aged 91, became the guardian of a moon bear rescued from years of inhumane conditions the year before her death.
The bear, which she named Robinson in honour of her close friend Jill Robinson MBE, founder of charity Animals Asia, had spent 15 brutal years in a cage in Vietnam.
Thankfully, she was rescued last year from the bear bile farm by the charity, which Jane was a long-term supporter of – albeit deeply traumatised, missing part of her front paw and most of her hind paw.

Now, in a moving op-ed written to announce her guardianship of Robinson, due to be released while the much-loved primatologist was alive – and now revealed posthumously and exclusively by the Mirror, the beloved animal campaigner wrote poignantly of the animal’s horrific conditions – and how she never gave up on saving him.
“Imagine being ripped away from your mother as a child, spending fifteen years in a tiny metal-barred cage, and being jabbed almost every day with long needles. That is what happened to my bear Robinson”, she wrote.
“I’ve spent my life trying to speak up for animals, and I know only too well some of the terrible pain people can inflict on them. But even I was horrified when I found out what happens to bears used for bile extraction.
“These poor moon bears spend most of their lives locked in a cage where bear bile farmers painfully extract their bile to be used in traditional medicine.”
Founder of The Jane Goodall Institute and a UN Messenger of Peace, Jane – who over the course of 60 years uncovered the uncannily human world of chimpanzees, went on to explain that, trapped on one of these farms in Vietnam, Robinson was bravely rescued by the frontline team at Animals Asia.
Having arrived at the location early, they discovered a heartbreaking sight – bears lined up in cages in a cold, damp shed – no doubt bitter cold at night and unbearably hot and humid in summer.
She explained, “Robinson came to her sanctuary missing a front paw – most likely from being caught in a snare as a cub. She probably saw her mother die in front of her. Yet in spite of all that terror, she’s sassy but sweet and gentle. She has a crooked little smile and she is, as her carers describe her, a sleeping goddess.”
Goodall, who had previously become guardian of another bear, Mandala, explained that the decision to become a guardian for a rescued bile farm bear may sound small – but to her, was deeply personal. “The bear I’m now linked to is a survivor. And the woman I named her after – Jill Robinson – has done more to end this cruelty than anyone I’ve met.
“Jill founded Animals Asia because she had the courage to find out what was happening to these bears and do something about it. I first visited one of their sanctuaries years ago and kissed a bear on the nose – not the wisest move, but a moment I’ll never forget. Like me, Jill has never given up. Her whole life has been about giving these bears a second chance.”
Goodall also revealed touchingly how Robinson was slowly coming out of her shell in her new home at the Animals Asia 2-hectare sanctuary, set in the beautiful, mountainous surroundings of the Bach Ma National Park, which she shares with another bear, Manu.
“They sleep curled up in straw together, play with hessian sacks, and splash around in the pool. She takes her medicine in sweet syrup and rests on a hammock in the sun. She still lives with the after effects of her injuries, but now she is safe.”
Thanks to the tireless work of Animals Asia, she explained, bile extraction is now illegal, but many bears still remain trapped, explaining that the charity has an agreement with the Vietnamese government to rescue every remaining bear – but a legal loophole is slowing down progress, and time is running out to save the final 150 bears before they die from decades of abuse.
What gave her hope, she said, was “the determination of fearless individuals to put an end to animal cruelty, and the resilience of animals themselves. With time and care these beautiful bears can recover. For Robinson, the time for healing has come. I hope it can also come for every last bear still waiting.”
It was during a poignant conversation which took place in May 2023 between Goodall and her friend Jill Robinson about their incredible careers, that she revealed that she would name the rescued bear after her good friend.
Robinson confessed, “It makes it more special than I can say to have a bear named by Jane Goodall. I will take that and we will choose a bear appropriately. Probably the scruffiest bear that needs lots and lots of care and attention and is nearly naked and you know, isn’t the prettiest bear at all.”
Poignantly, Jane also expressed her desire to return to Vietnam and see the great work Animals Asia were doing on the ground. A delighted Robinson said, “The program is still going to be running as bear farming is winding down in the country. So please, please do come. I’m going to say a big fat yes to that and keep you to your word.”
Goodall replied, “You know, we just do what we do, don’t we? I have to do more than ever because next year I’ll be 90. I don’t know how long I have left, I’ve got to speed up and do more in the time I have left.”
Jane Goodall’s death in LA on October 1st, led to widespread mourning and tributes from across the world. Prince Harry was one of them. He met the world-famous activist in 2018, the pair reportedly “clicking” when she taught him a unique chimpanzee greeting.
That first meeting was followed by Goodall’s visit to Frogmore Cottage the following year, where she held the couple’s newborn son, Prince Archie, and showered the family with care.
Upon her passing, Harry posted a heartfelt statement on social media with wife Meghan Markle, where he remembered the icon as a “visionary humanitarian, scientist, friend to the planet, and friend to us.”
She may be gone, but Jane Goodall left a fierce legacy. As she once said, “We are the most intellectual species to walk the planet, but we’re not intelligent. If you’re intelligent you don’t destroy your only home.”

Dominic Harrison, better known as Yungblud, has explained on The Howard Stern Show his thoughts on his stage name – as he shares what he’d like to call his future children

He’s shared the stage with rock legends like Ozzy Osbourne and Steven Tyler, yet some fans are still in the dark about how Yungblud got his icionic stage name. Dominic Harrison introduced himself to the world with his debut EP, Yungblud, in 2018, followed by his full-length album, 21st Century Liability.
Just a year later, the now 28 year old released his second EP, The Underrated Youth, and his second studio album, Weird!, which ranked the top spot on the UK Albums Chart and number 75 on the US Billboard 200. He’s has taken to the stage at major festivals worldwide, including Coachella in the US, Hurricane Festival in Germany, UNTOLD Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, and even his own Bludfest, founded by Yungblud in 2024.
In July this year, he won over Black Sabbath fans with a heartfelt cover of Changes at Ozzy’s final concert, Back to the Beginning, held at Villa Park, Birmingham, UK.
During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, as seen in a YouTube clip, Dom revealed the origins of his stage name Yungblud, saying: “I thought Dominic Harrison was a bit polite for the music that I make.”
As reported by On Air with Ryan Seacrest, his management team started calling him young blood shortly after signing him, as he was the youngest artist they were representing.
Later in the show, when quizzed about what he’d name his future children, Dom responded: “If I had a girl, I’d name her Ziggy, and if I had a boy, I’d want to call him Iggy. So I’ve got Ziggy and Iggy”.
Fans have been sharing their love for Yungblud on YouTube, with one user commenting: “Absolutely love Dom’s music and the whole YB team. He’s such a kind and talented soul”.
Another fan chimed in: “He’s one of the most authentic people you’ll meet”. A third added: “It’s about time Yungblud is on the show”.

Yungblud, hailing from Doncaster, was scheduled to perform his Idols World Tour in the US last month. However, due to health concerns, he had to pull out.
In an emotional social media post, he shared: “This year has been truly unbelievable and I feel so lucky and honoured from everything that has happened”.
Vicky Pattison, the star of Strictly Come Dancing, expressed her concerns about the rise of AI-enabled sexual abuse as OpenAI revealed plans to introduce an “adult mode” feature for people over 18 years old.

In a bid to compete with Grok, Elon Musk’s explicit chatbot, ChatGPT will allow users to create porn. Companions, or sexualized avatars, can be created using Grok for both naked and sexual photos and videos.
The artificial intelligence platform ChatGPT is owned by OpenAI. A new erotica feature was announced for the software in October. Consent has become a source of concern because of sexualized AI content.
Now, Strictly Come Dancing star and TV legend Vicky Pattison is raising the alarm about the rise of AI-enabled sexual abuse. Previously, she delved into the world of fake pornographic videos for a Channel 4 documentary named Vicky Pattison: My Deepfake Sex Tape. She said that she is “deeply concerned about the direction this technology is moving in.”

Owner of ChatGPT, open AI boss Sam Altman, announced in October that users over the age of 18 must register with the site’s “erotica” generation tool.
He stated on X: “We are going to be able to safely relax the restraints in most cases now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools.” We will allow even more erotica for verified adults as part of our “treat adult users like adults” philosophy.
Altman didn’t give details on what this might look like, but given that ChatGPT can carry out conversations and generate images, the erotica could be text-based and visual. Open AI also owns Sora, the viral AI video generator that created fake short videos of Jake Paul and TikToker HSTikkyTokky, that looked so realistic they fooled many online.
Geordie Shore alum Vicky took the extreme measure of uploading a deepfake sex tape created by AI to highlight the dangers of the situation as part of her Channel 4 programme.
“Having spent the last year immersed in the realities of deepfake porn and AI-enabled sexual abuse, I’m deeply concerned about the direction this technology is moving in,” she told The Mirror. “The issue isn’t consensual adult content, it’s that powerful AI tools are being rolled out before we’ve properly addressed consent, safeguards, and misuse. Women are already disproportionately harmed by deepfake abuse, and this risks making that worse.
“I’m concerned about the message that these tools are sending about intimacy,” Patterson said. When AI is intended to flirt and act on demand, it can skew the perception of how women interact with one another, especially for younger users who are already navigating tangled lines between consent and consent.
Every new sexualized AI tool runs the risk of strengthening dangerous narratives rather than protecting people until lawmakers and tech companies catch up.
In order to improve their age prediction before releasing the new feature, Fidji Simo, OpenAI’s CEO of Applications, announced earlier this month that she anticipates “adult mode” to debut in the first quarter of 2026. The company is already testing the Simo model in some nations, according to The Verge, to see if it can identify teenagers without “mis-identifying adults.”
There will be some controls, but according to Altman, no one will be able to see or obtain erotica without getting permission. However, Tolga Bilge, a researcher on AI policy, criticizes Altman for backtracking on a statement he previously made in an interview about OpenAI’s inaction, such as creating a “sexbot avatar.”
Given the current state of AI-generated sexual content, discussion about ChatGPT’s upcoming adult content is constrained.
In February, the UK Home Office released a report as the UK became the first country in the world to create new AI sexual abuse offences. They found AI tools are being used to generate child sexual abuse images in a number of sickening ways, such as “‘nudifying’ real-life images of children or by stitching the faces of other children onto existing child sexual abuse images.
In this odious material, “Innocent survivors of traumatic abuse are being re-victimized,” the children’s voices are frequently used.
“Perpetrators are also using fake images, such as streaming live images, to intimidate kids and force victims into even more horrifying abuse.” As more children are being groomed and abused online, perpetrators are using AI tools to help them hide their initial identities.
But AI-generated sexual content has already seeped into classrooms across the world. In Spain last year, 15 boys were sentenced to a year’s probation after being convicted of using AI to produce fake naked images of their female schoolmates. Most of the girls affected were aged 14 and the youngest was 11. The images were shared on WhatsApp groups.
In Australia, 50 school students reported that “mutilated” and “incredibly graphic” images of them had been fakes and shared. One mother said her daughter was so horrified by the images that she vomited.

In the US, more than 30 female students at a school in New Jersey found deepfake sexual images had been shared among their male classmates on Snapchat.
As required by Ofcom’s Online Safety Act, OpenAI are reviewing their age verification system. User-to-user search companies are required by the Act to take appropriate precautions to reduce the likelihood of users encountering “illegal content,” including child sexual abuse material, terrorism, encouraging and assisting suicide, and other law-breaking incitement.
To prevent children from accessing pornographic content, all websites must have highly effective age assurance.
