I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! hosts Ant and Dec have called out claims Snoochie Shy had cheated in a dig on live TV.
After recent episodes, some viewers noticed that contestants seemed to be wearing make-up on the show, pointing out Snoochie, Frankie Bridge, Kadeena Cox and Louise Minchin specifically. Snoochie was also targeted for wearing large hoop earrings.
In Thursday's episode (December 2), the presenter duo joked about Snoochie's earrings, and insisted that the stars didn't actually break the rules of the camp.

"Eagle-eyed viewers will have noticed Snoochie's earrings," Dec noted. "Did you see them?"

Ant responded: "Yes, you couldn't miss them, Declan!"
"We asked about this," Dec continued, "and apparently the rule is they can bring in jewellery as long as they're not expensive or they don't have any sentimental value."
"So if you bought her those earrings, sorry and sorry!" Ant joked.
But, fans still questioned this on Twitter, with one person writing: "Snoochie has decorated her ears for Christmas… they're impressive."
Another wrote: "How does that Snoochie lass have a different pair of hoops every ep???"

While Snoochie has felt the fans' wrath for allegedly skirting the rules, another campmate actually did go against the official rule book.
Coronation Street star Simon Gregson admitted in the same episode that he'd smuggled salt and pepper into the camp after the contestants had to evacuate during Storm Arwen. He revealed he had managed to sneak it in in a toothpaste tube, blaming his "miniscule crime" on the "god-awful" food.
Similarly to their Snoochie reaction, Ant and Dec just joked about the transgression. "We'll be charging them as… salt and peppery," the pair laughed.
