I'm A Celeb's first-ever show 'legend' has outlined her desire to enter politics just days after winning the all-star edition of the show.
The ITV programme ended on Friday night with Myleene Klass, Jordan Banjo and Fatima Whitbread as the last three contestants.
Myleene Klass, who became famous as a singer with Hear'Say, has revealed her desire to become an MP at some point in the future.
When asked by the Sunday Telegraph, the radio presenter and businesswoman said that she had been approached by both the Conservatives and Labour Party.

The star, who first appeared on I'm A Celeb all the way back in 2006, added: “I haven’t refused every time, “It’s on my list. I’ve surprised myself.
“Where I stand with my politics is that there are some things that genuinely affect everybody. I’m very passionate about the things I’m passionate about.”
Myleene Klass has been a strong advocate for women's health with her undergoing the "utterly painful" process of helping to reform the Women’s Health Strategy in Parliament.
One of these changes includes calls to change the need for three miscarriages before receiving help.
The Hear'Say singer said: “Having been through this – I’ve been pregnant seven times, I had three babies, so you can do the maths – it’s heartbreaking, but you have to turn your pain into power,” she said. “I don’t want my daughters to experience this.”
Recently, she told the MP responsible for this, Maria Caulfield, to push through change but refuses to say how she votes, adding: "I’m a fan of people who get things done.”
In 2014, she slammed then-opposition leader Ed Milliband for a proposed Mansion Tax, seeing Prime Minister David Cameron remark that he had taken “a pasting from a pop star”.

Myleene Klass crowned first 'legend' on I'm A Celeb... South Africa.
After winning I'm A Celeb...South Africa, she said: "I feel so happy. Honestly, it was really hard to come away from your family... I'm a mum but with that, you get a superpower because you have three little sets of eyes watching you."
Final two campmates Jordan Banjo and Myleene Klass competed in a challenging eating trial with nine rounds, as the rest of the former cast watched.
They both had to write down how much of each food they would eat before getting stuck into some questionable grub with a five-minute time limit for each round.
During one part of the trial, Myleene chose to eat 60 mice tails in two minutes.
Watching from the side, Phil Tufnell jumped up and exclaimed: "60! We haven't got enough mice for 60!"
