Former Governor Blagojevich To Star In NBC’s I’M A CELEBRITY … GET ME OUT OF HERE??

I am – Hercules!!

Rod Blagojevich has found a way to spend a month of what may be his final days as a free man.

The former Illinois governor, indicted April 1 on federal corruption charges, has signed a deal to star on NBC’s “I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here,” pending the court approval that will allow him to travel to the show’s Costa Rica location.

Blagojevich follows in the footsteps of Criss Judd, Alana Stewart, Melissa Rivers, Nikki Ziering, John Melendez, Robin Leach, Maria Conchita Alonso, Tyson Beckford and Downtown Julie Brown, all of whom starred in ABC’s 2003 version of the series.
