I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! attracted the ire of fans across Australia on Monday as the series teased Rachael 'Raygun' Gunn as one of the 2025 contestants.

The reality TV show shared a video to Instagram which hinted Raygun, 37, could be the Olympian set to join the cast in the South African jungle later this month. 

However, furious fans threatened to boycott the show if it featured the breakdancer, who made headlines at the Paris Olympics for her controversial performance. 

The video was careful not to reveal the identity of the 2025 contestant, keeping their face and hands covered with emojis as they clasped a mobile phone in hand. 

But the mystery celebrity then revealed they were an Olympian before sharing the three emojis which hinted at who they might be — a kangaroo, croissant and a cap.

Viewers need only look at Raygun's performance during the 2024 Olympics to see the emojis could easily link to her controversial breakdancing entry.

She famously hopped like a kangaroo and wore a cap during the stunt, with the croissant —a French pastry — a nod at Paris where the 2024 Olympics were held. 

Fans of the show flocked to the comments, threatening to switch their TVs off during the upcoming season, which airs on January 19, if Raygun pops up on their TV.   

'If it's Raygun, I'm not watching,' one person wrote, as another said: 'If Raygun is on I'm out and so is everyone else I know.'

'Sorry I'm A Celebrity. Like others if this is Raygun I'm not watching either… Pity I look forward to this show every year!' a third added.

Another user commented: 'OK this may confirm my worst fear that Raygun is in the cast. And for that reason I'm Out.'

'Like everybody else if its Raygun I won't watch,' yet another wrote, as others added: 'Oh please NOT Raygun' and 'Way to ruin the show.' 

It comes just days after Raygun made an appearance in Australian Lamb's summer advertisement for 2025.

While last year's theme took aim at things that were 'Un-Australian', Australian Lamb have for 2025 encouraged people to 'get out of the comments section'.

The advertisement is understood to have used real comments that people on the internet have written in relation to a variety of subjects including dog grooming, making a cup of tea and Raygun.

During the advert, the individuals highlight some of the bewildering comments that were shared online last year, before Lambassador Sam Kekovich produces a grilled lamb cutlet to unite the individuals in the clip.

Highlighting some absurd comments, a group of people are pictured in the promotion sitting in a stand which has a sign above it, reading: 'The comments section.'

During the ad, several actors begin to argue over whether you should put milk in a cup of tea before you take the tea bag out.

One exasperated character says: 'We're fighting over tea now...' While another responds: 'Could be worse...'

The camera then pans to a woman dressed in a green set of tracksuits appearing to impersonate Raygun by performing a dance on a stage in front of the group.

Several members in the stand subsequently shout out a variety of messages to the lady including: 'She's my hero,' and, 'She broke dancing.'

'I don't get it,' one added, while another hit back at the comments: 'Oh another keyboard warrior.'

'It's fake,' one was heard saying, while another added: 'Why's everyone hating?'

The woman continued to dance and roll on the floor as two individuals appeared to question why there was so much trolling.

'There's got to be something that unites us,' one said, before the screen cut to Sam who said: 'C'mon everybody, get out of the comments and get into the cutlets.'

The humorous advert intends to shine a light on the difference between how some Australians have treated people online compared to how they would in person.

Livestock Australia General Manager for Marketing, Nathan Low, said: 'When you delve into the world of online commentary, it would leave you thinking Aussies are at each other's throats, no matter how trivial the topic.

'But in real life, we don't treat each other like that.

'The Summer Lamb campaign is an irreverent reminder that Australians are always at their best when we're united, and there's no better way to bring everyone together than an epic Aussie lamb barbecue.'

It comes as Raygun was heavily trolled in the wake of her performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics but has also become somewhat of a cult hero in Australia.

The Aussie breaking sensation failed to score any points at the Olympics and had been questioned for her unique dances, with the university researcher hopping like a kangaroo.

While many have offered support and congratulated Raygun on making it to the Games, she has previously opened up on some of the horrid comments some social media users have sent her.

Raygun has defiantly vowed not to let her haters defeat her.

'People really have tried to shame me,' she said.

'It’s been so hard to process,' she told Stellar. 'My whole world has changed. My identity has changed. My relationships have changed, for better or for worse.

'It’s in times like these that you find out who your real friends are, unfortunately. And because things are still changing, it’s just impossible to wrap your head around. 

'It’s hard to predict what it’s going to be like when I leave the house.'

She added: 'I think the haters want me to be locked away in a room, ashamed and quiet.'
