Lou Diamond
Phillips Crowned Costa Rica's King Of The
Jungle
The three weeks of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me
Out of Here just flew by, and the whole
ordeal is over at last. There's plenty of
time to reminisce, but this is a moment for
celebration. Actor Lou Diamond Phillips is
indeed the winner of the season, and now has
claim to the title "King of the Jungle."
There were three finalists going head to
head on the last episodes of the competition
- Torrie Wilson, John Salley, and Lou
Diamond Phillips. The final challenge they
had to put up with was truly disgusting,
like it was pulled straight out of a Fear
Factor clip. It seemed like regurgitated
food is what's cooking in Costa Rica.
Don't Miss
The three had to deal with a trial of
endurance, exposing various body parts to a
plague of frogs, roaches and spiders.
There's also the epic "cheese vomit" that
was far difficult to stomach. Still, they
survived and even won a gourmet feast. It
was to be their last meal in the jungle, and
they truly deserved all that.
While they were eating their share of pizza,
fried chicken and a tofu burger for the
vegan John, they discussed how they felt
about being the last to leave the jungle.
During elimination, it was ex-NBA star John
Salley who was called out first. He made it
to third place, while former pro-wrestler
Torrie Wilson came in second.
Finally, the 47-year-old actor Lou Diamond
Phillips emerged victorious in what was said
to be an "incredibly close" vote. While he
bested Torrie for the title, he also won
quite a share of the donation money for his
chosen charity. Phillips chose Art Has
Heart, a non-profit organization aimed at
providing college scholarships to high
school students in need.
As for the rest of the cast, all except for
Frangela were reunited on the Wednesday
episode of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of
Here. Everyone remembered their "happy"
times in Costa Rica, even though there were
a few.
Never the type to miss out on appearances,
The Hills stars Spencer and Heidi Pratt were
there. Heidi even talked about the
hospitalization she experienced for being in
the wild. She said she was going to do all
right as long as she keeps herself away from
the jungle.
Not a lot of fans really care about the
state of Heidi's stomach, so let's just move
on and congratulate Lou Diamond Phillips for
being crowned the winner of this season's
I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.
