I’M A Celebrity faces a new fix row after fans claimed last night’s Bushtucker trial was HARDER on Frankie Bridge than Naughty Boy.
The singer and Naughty Boy were picked by the public to do Scary-oke, which saw them covered in gunge and downing vile drinks.
Frankie burst into tears and was seen shaking following the gruelling task, which saw her gulping blended deer testicles and pork.
Naughty boy, who can only eat Halal meat owing to his Muslim religion, got a concoction of fermented beans, eggs, and blended rotten fruit.
Though the drinks were just as gross and gave off a revolting stench, viewers were convinced Naughty got an easier ride.
One said: “I swear #ImACeleb is setting naughty boy up to do well so he can’t leave…
such a fix.
”
Another moaned: “What’s with Naughty boy getting all the easy drinks in last night’s trial??? He gets fruit, egg, fish eyes?? Franki gets blended penis, goat brain, testicles?? There is seriously something dodgy going on here??”
However, others defended him and one person reasoned: “I’m sure naughty boy is Muslim, so therefore can’t do some of the drinks that Frankie had to do.
“However I definitely wouldn’t want to drink blended vomit fruit
so I don’t really think he had it easier tbf”
Frankie thanked Naughty Boy for being her “saviour” during the trial as the pair had to be covered in blankets and were seen violently shaking from the cold.
The move prompted those watching at home to say ITV bosses had ‘gone too far’.
One person wrote: “Never thought I’d say it but this was to disturbing to watch. Seeing Frankie suffer and shiver as she did was too much. There is no reason to put anyone thru that. Borderline brutality. I could not watch! Shame on you.”
Once she got back to camp, Frankie – who had held it together – broke down in tears.
Frankie told Louise Minchin: “It was absolute nightmare. We had to drink stuff and it was so hard.

“I wanted to quit after the third drink, the thing that kept me going was Naughty who had won lots of trials. This might have been a push too far though.
“I just wanted to come back and give you a hug I really did.’
She added: “Coming back to camp and having to say that you hadn’t won that many [wasn’t an option].
“And that’s what we came on here for, to push ourselves to do things.”
It comes after viewers claimed the show is being fixed for some stars to get more airtime and go on to win the series.
