No More
'Celebrity' For Patti Blagojevich
(AP) — Illinois' former first lady won't be
queen of the jungle. Patti Blagojevich was
voted off NBC's reality series "I'm a
Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" on
Tuesday.
She lasted 23 days in the Costa Rican jungle
as a replacement for her husband, who was
barred by a judge from leaving the country
amid his pending corruption charges.
Patti Blagojevich said during Tuesday's
episode that her favorite moments on the
series include being tossed into a river and
making her way out, and speaking to her
family over the Internet.
Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich has pleaded not
guilty to wide-ranging federal charges,
including attempting to sell an appointment
to Barack Obama's Senate seat.
Patti Blagojevich has said she did the show
because of her family's finances.
The reality show broadcast live from Costa
Rica comes to a close on Thursday.
