Seann Walsh's 'Africa' lyric blunder shocks jungle campmates
14 Apr
Summary
- Seann Walsh incorrectly answered a Toto lyric during a jungle trial.
- The comedian confused the song's location, saying 'Spain' instead of 'Africa'.
- His mistake led to him cutting his own rope, causing his team to fall.
During a recent episode of I'm A Celebrity... South Africa, comedian Seann Walsh participated in the challenging 'Cut Throat Cliff' Bushtucker Trial. The trial required celebrities to lean over a high cliff, answering general knowledge questions while suspended by ropes. Correct answers allowed contestants to cut an opponent's rope, while incorrect answers meant cutting their own.
Walsh faced a question about the lyrics to Toto's 1982 hit song, 'I bless the rain down in...'. In a moment of confusion, he incorrectly buzzed in and declared 'Spain!' The presenters, Ant and Dec, were left in stitches by the response, highlighting that the correct answer was 'Africa.'
As a consequence of his lyrical error, Walsh was forced to cut his own rope, leading to a fall. His campmates, including Beverley Callard and Sinitta, later recounted the incident with amusement, with newcomer Jimmy Bullard erupting in laughter upon hearing the story. The segment aired on Tuesday's episode of the ITV show.
