I'm a Celebrity star Fleur East says she won't be making the trip to Rotterdam in May.

Fans of the former X Factor star have been actively campaigning on social media for the 'Sax' singer to represent the UK this spring at the Eurovision Song Contest.

Fleur seems like she would be a natural fit for Eurovision, but she sadly revealed on The One Show on Friday (January 31) that she actually hasn't been approached by the UK selection committee.

"I don't know where this has come from," she admitted. "My Twitter has just exploded! It's very flattering that people want me to go and rep the UK, but it's actually not happening. No, sadly."

One Show co-presenter Amol Rajan then asked the all-important follow-up question of whether Fleur would be keen on the job of representing the UK at Eurovision, if asked.

"I'd be up for it," she revealed.

We'd suggest the UK selection committee get in touch with Fleur because she'd almost certainly improve on Michael Rice's last-place finish at last year's Eurovision Song Contest.

It has been a rough few years for the UK entries, with SuRie's performance of 'Storm' being marred by a stage invader in Lisbon in 2018 and The X Factor's Lucie Jones managing a 15th place finish in 2017 with 'Never Give Up on You'.

The latter performance at 15th from Jones was actually the UK's best placement since 2011 – which should be all the more reason why we need Fleur East representing us in Rotterdam in May!

The Eurovision Song Contest 2020 finals will be held at the Rotterdam Ahoy on May 16, with Graham Norton presenting live coverage on BBC One.
