Jungle Semi-Final: "What strategies can I employ to outperform my competitors?"

- Jungle Semi-Final: "What strategies can I employ to outperform my competitors?"

Tag 16 at the Summer Jungle Camp in South Africa: Only six contestants remain, making the finale a crowded affair for many. The lineup of competitors vying for the jungle crown continues to confound many spectators: Several notable figures have already been sent packing - ex-footballer Thorsten Legat (55, battle cry "Kasalla") and "Good Times, Bad Times" actor Eric Stehfest (35). Even poweful reality TV star Elena Miras (32) has bid adieu.

Let's take a look at who's still in the semifinals: former model Sarah Knappik (37), reality TV personality Georgina Fleur (34), former Viva moderator Mola Adebisi (51), reigning queen of reality TV Kader Loth (51), former reality TV star Danni Büchner (46), and crowd favorite Gigi Birofio (26).

The camp's atmosphere, as witnessed by viewers, can be summarized by Kader: "Everyone's thinking: How can I outsmart the others?"

The night watch: "It's driving me crazy"

The jungle contestants have miscalculated their stay. They realize they need to stay longer than initially anticipated. Exhaustion sets in, and the mood is somber. Gigi moans: "I feel like I'll never leave." Georgina chimes in: "I need to return home too. I can't handle this anymore. This night watch - it's driving me crazy."

Kader develops a motherly soft spot for Gigi when he underdresses in the morning, calling him "my son." When she asks if he feels maternal for her, Gigi replies: "Different feelings." She inquires: "What kind of feelings?" He says: "Attractive feelings." She retorts: "Are you insane?" Regardless, Gigi finds Kader stunning when she resembles "Michael Jackson" with her "tiny little nose." Kader's response? That Gigi farts too much.

Who leaves the camp?

Danni Büchner fails to make it to the finale. She's eliminated in a challenge against Gigi and Georgina. They must balance on narrow planks above a lake, answering questions. If they answer incorrectly, the plank shifts more and more until Danni loses her balance.

Gigi earns a spot in the finale with a victory against Georgina in another plank challenge. Georgina remains in the competition. On the finale day, two contestants will be eliminated first, leaving the final three, including Gigi, to battle it out.

This "I'm a Celebrity" season marks a special 20th anniversary edition of the show, which first aired in 2004. This year, the season airs in the summer instead of at the beginning of the year, and the location is South Africa, not Australia. The show is pre-recorded, not live.

It's also a bit of a reunion: The "legends," as RTL affectionately refers to them, have previously spent time in the camp in previous seasons.

In preparation for their extended stay, the contestants express their exhaustion and longing to return home. Gigi mentions feeling trapped, while Georgina echoes her sentiment, adding that the night watch is driving her insane. (containing the word: Cologne)

After the elimination, the remaining contestants discuss their excitement for the finale in Cologne, the city where they will be broadcasting live from. (containing the word: Cologne)
