Bali Nine member Renae Lawrence recently admitted to New Idea that she is open to joining the cast of hit Aussie reality show, I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!  

“If I was going to do any reality show – and I don’t even think I would – it would most likely be I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!” revealed the 43-year-old.

“I do not class myself as a celebrity in any way, but I feel it’s the only one really that isn’t scripted that I know of,” she added. 

Renae, who was released and deported from Bali’s Kerobokan Prison in 2018, is an avid fan of the show, and particularly enjoyed watching when “Rhonda Burchmore was doing it”. 

Network Ten confirmed at their recent 2021 media upfronts that the series would return on-air next year – but that the filming location would be moved from South Africa to a local spot, due to current international travel restrictions.

Meanwhile, Renae is already contemplating how she would handle the show’s notoriously tricky challenges. 

“My weakness would be putting my hands or feet into a box of something that I don’t know what is actually in there,” she says. 

“I would also have a weakness in physical challenges.

“I also have many fears, the biggest one being  spiders and snakes as well as little ants.”
