The reality star will be taken to boot camp by hard man Ant Middleton as he and former boxer Tony Bellew are said to have signed up for the Stand Up To Cancer celebrity edition of the grueling Channel 4 show.
An insider told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre TV column: "Joey is really determined to show people he's not just this glam reality star living a life of luxury. He can get his hands dirty.
"And Tony will be great value. He's a hard man, so a great test for Ant."
According to the report, Joey is a late replacement for Katie, who is said to have dropped out after just two days.
It was recently claimed the former glamour model was doing all she could to get in tip top shape for the show, which has proven to be very taxing for the contestants.
A source previously said: "Katie might be a reality telly veteran - but there's no tougher show on TV.
"Last series recruits had to fight each other, climb mountains - and get chased through the countryside - and that's just the physical side."
Any star getting involved in the new series will have to be prepared for the emotional drain of the show, as they will have to "open up" to former SAS man Ant and the rest of his team.
The insider added: "Contestants also have to open up about their lives to Ant Middleton and the team. Almost everyone broke down in tears at one point."
