Helen Flanagan, who finished seventh in the last series of I'm A Celebrity, has admitted that she would never date the show's current favourite Joey Essex.

Why? Because she thinks that the TOWIE lad is "too thick" for her.

Ouch.

The ex-Corrie babe, 23, appearing on ITV2 spin-off show I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here Now!, said: "Opposites attract so I wouldn't really go for Joey."

However that "opposites attract" may not be a viable excuse for too long, as the Lancashire lass has since told the Daily Star that she wants to head back to school and sit her A-levels.

She said: "I'm all into bettering myself. Intelligence is sexy."

"I felt too immature at 17 to do my A-Levels and regret not doing them.

"And it's always good to have a back-up plan. I'm an actress and that's my main priority but I can juggle things well."

Helen apparently wants to study psychology, English, media studies and history, subjects she is passionate about.
