I'm a Celeb fans stunned by Roman's secret talent - but cringe over name dropping

I'm a Celebrity viewers fell further in love with Roman Kemp tonight when they found out the radio presenter also has a great singing voice.

Roman was singing Ed Sheeran songs with the other campmates, and James Haskell noticed that Roman was talented.

Jacqueline Jossa added: “Roman is one of those annoying people who can do everything, one of those kids who when you were younger you wouldn’t have wanted to be friends with because they are too good at everything.”

The public also noticed Roman's singing voice, with one tweeting: "Roman can sing ... that boy gets fitter every night".

"Oh my god Roman has an amazing voice I never knew he could sing", said another.

"So roman looks good when he wakes up, when he is covered in dirt, grease etc. Eating animal parts and he can sing. What can't this man do", gushed a third.

However, the conversation then moved on to celebrity phone contacts the campmates had, and Roman couldn't resist a name drop.

He revealed he had Ed Sheeran's email, and Justin Bieber's phone number - then told a story about being at Justin Bieber's house party with a famous footballer and comedian.

There was a sectioned off area for about ten people and all of a sudden I felt someone pulling on my shirt and it’s Mesut Ozil", he said.

"I knew him because he used to host a lot of football stuff.

"He came up to me and went 'Roman, can you introduce me?' So I went over to Justin and said let me introduce you to a footballer he’s really good, plays for a team I like.

"And then Justin said to Mesut ‘he tells me you are the greatest,’ and Mesut said ‘I like to think so.’

"Then I cheers’d Justin with a shot of tequila and I looked over and just sat on his own with a drink was Jimmy Carr!”

Viewers took to Twitter to eye roll in their droves at Roman's name drops.

One laughed: "Roman loves a name drop lol".

"I don’t think Roman even means to name drop, it just happens, but I love the stories so I’m okay with it", said another.

"Did roman kemp just name drop harry styles lol", pondered a third.

"Roman hates a name drop eh", added a fourth, alongside an eye roll emoji.
