The Saturdays singer can't wait to see her former band mate in the Australian jungle later this year because she's convinced she'll throw herself head first into the gruelling challenges as she's not scared of much.

Speaking to Dan Wootton on his Facebook page, Mollie said: "I would love to see her in there [the jungle].

"She would be so good because she's not that scared of much so I reckon she would be in there with the trials. Oh gosh, that would be so good."

Although the brunette beauty is yet to sign on the dotted line, it's believed she's keen to take part in the show following her split from her boyfriend Gary Salter earlier this year following six years of dating.

A source said recently: "Vanessa is a stunning girl from a massive girl band so she's an exciting first signing for 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' The bosses are super keen to have her.

"She's still focussing on her music career but is up for the challenge since being newly single."

It comes after the show's bosses silenced rumours Mike Thalassitis will take part in this year's show.

The 'Love Island' hunk and his fellow reality star pal Johnny Mitchell were recently believed to be in the line-up to star in the upcoming series of the popular programme, which is presented by comedy duo Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, but it's thought neither have been recruited because they will add "nothing new" to the forthcoming season.

An insider said: "We accept that some of the stars of 'Love Island' have now become celebrities thanks to the show - but they're not for us. Viewers have only just recently seen them for seven weeks in a reality show - they'd add nothing new to our show."

Other stars who have been tipped to fight for the title of king or queen of the jungle include Ryan Thomas, after his brother Adam came in the top three during last year's show, Rebekah Vardy, Craig Charles, and former 'The Only Way is Essex' star Danielle Armstrong.
