If there’s one thing that I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here does every single year, is breathe life into the careers of some of Australia’s most well-known celebrities from back-in-the-day.
This year, the multi-talented Toni Pearen has joined the cast and if you didn’t remember who she was (how could you forget though?), you’re about to get an exceptional reminder.
After being bitten by a snake on Tuesday’s episode, the 48-year-old’s 1992 hit In Your Room casually went viral on social media – and, does she ever age?
Fans took to the video to send well-wishes to the star, who rose to fame on Home and Away, E Street and Out of the Blue.

Pearen is already a fan favourite and had the Australian public on her side during the particularly “distressing challenge”, where the former Funniest Home Videos host had to stick her head into a box filled with non-venomous snakes.
While inside, Pearen was struck five times by a black and yellow mangrove snake and left bleeding. Once the challenge was over, she was visibly shaken.
Of course, host Julia Morris reminded her that she could leave the show for good if she wanted to escape and must choose between the snakebite and staying in the competition.
I’m a Celeb is not the first reality show Pearen has competed in. She also appeared on the eighth season of Dancing With the Stars and had a guest spot on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
During this appearance in 2003, Pearen said she was aiming to revive her music career in the near future. Well, we say, there’s no time like the present!
As for her personal life, Pearen is married to Will Osmond and they have two children Lucky, 11, and daughter Ever, 8 and we’re sure they are proud as punch!
