I'm A Celebrity star Andy Whyment's secret singing past revealed as he wows in jungle karaoke

I'm A Celebrity star Andy Whyment wowed both his fellow campmates and millions of viewers at home with his singing as all of the contestants took part in karaoke during Tuesday night's show.

But the truth is that the Coronation Street has impressed with singing on TV before on TWO ITV shows nonethless.

On Tuesday night's I'm A Celebrity , the contestants earned themselves a night in The Jungle Arms after performing pantomime Criteralla.

And just like many of us do when we head to the pub, they did need a second invitation to partake in a sing-along, with Andy, better known to Corrie fans as Wetherfield's own Kirk Sutherland, delighting with a barnstorming rendition of The Killers' Mr Brightside, which went down a treat.

The series also featured Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter and now disgraced Celebrity Big Brother contestant Roxanne Pallett.

Andy also auditioned for The X Factor as his famous character Kirk as you can see in the above You Tube video.

With just a few days to go before this year's I'm A Celebrity final, bookies change their winner odds all the time and after Monday's show, Nadine Coyle's saw her odds slashed dramatically.

But it should come as little surprise that Andy was so good as he made it all the way to the final of Soapstar Superstar on ITV in 2006, finishing second to fellow Coronation Street actor Richard Fleeshman.
