Viewers of I'm A Celebrity believe Angry Ginge has a genius tactic to propel his way to victory in the jungle.
Ginge and Jack Osbourne are both contestants on the hit ITV show, but they had a disagreement over the quality of Taylor Swift’s music.
The dispute all started after rapper Aitch asked if anyone liked the 35-year-old’s music.
“No, not really,” replied Osbourne, who is the son of the Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away in July 2025.

“You know what I like about it? It is vanilla ice cream.
“You could put it on for anyone, and they would be like, ‘yeah, it is alright’.”
Swift is one of the best-selling artists of all time and currently holds the record for the biggest first-week debut for an album this year following the release of 'The Life of a Showgirl'.
Angry Ginge took exception to Osbourne’s comments, immediately jumping to the Love Story singer’s defence.
“Is he taking the p***,” said Angry Ginge.
“Don’t ever disrespect Taylor Swift like that ever again."
Osbourne emphasised that he meant no offence, insinuating that he meant the phrase ‘vanilla ice cream’ as a compliment.
“What I’m not,” replied
“I’m saying she is vanilla ice cream.”
However, the streaming sensation emphasised that Swift was far more than that.
“Taylor Swift is not vanilla ice cream; she is mint chocolate with sprinkles and marshmallows," Ginge said. "Don’t disrespect Taylor Swift.
“Yeah, she’s alright.”
Later, Angry Ginge admitted he was a ‘Swiftie’, the name given to particularly passionate fans of Swift’s music.
“I was on the defence, I am a Swiftie,” he added. "Unbelievable, she is.
“Her music is incredible, she’s incredible, I’ve never met her. She’s also an aesthetically pleasing lady; she is very beautiful.”
Some viewers believe that Ginge has played a blinder by expressing his support for Swift as her army of 'Swifties' could now be rooting for him to win the show
Swifties are notoriously support of Swift and their fellow fans, as some fans pointed out in the replies to a preview for the episode on social media.
“Loooool he knows what he’s doing,” read one reply.
“Ginge is a genius here... Swifties = votes,” replied another.
“Swifties alone could carry him to the final,” added a third.
The final will take place on Sunday, December 6.
