He admitted before going on the show that he hadn't watched previous series, and was unsure as to what being in the jungle entailed.
But The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air star Alfonso Ribeiro, famous for playing the spoilt Carlton on the hit show, very quickly found out just how tough things can get on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! as he was thrown into his first Bushtucker Trial just seconds after entering the camp.
The 42-year-old was left in tears after the Rotten Roulette challenge, which saw him locked in a glass box and covered with scorpions.
Don't cry, Carlton! Alfonso Ribeiro was left in tears following his very first Bushtucker Trial on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, to be aired on Sunday night
Hold still: Alfonso tried to stay calm as he was covered in scorpions during the Rotten Roulette trial
Returning to his campmates afterwards, Alfonso said: 'That was tougher than I thought!'
The trial saw half of the celebrities split into two teams – the yellow team versus the red team – to win food for dinner and more importantly, a better camp.
The winners would spend their first few days in the relative luxury of Croc Creek where the losing side would be in the smaller Snake Rock which resembled an abandoned camp.
No rest for the wicked: No sooner did they land did the four camp mates have to take part in their first Bush Tucker Trial - Rotten Roulette
Unfazed: Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter barely flinched as lizards fan all over her
Each round involved one celebrity from each team lying in a glass coffin and having to complete a star shaped jigsaw puzzle.
However, being I’m A Celebrity , they were joined by various creepy crawlies and they had to hold their nerve to focus on completing the star puzzle before their opponent.
And for every time they completed a puzzle, they would receive a meal for their team.

Team work: Steve also got close to nature as he shared space with some scorpions
Reality star Joey Essex and Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter were joined by lizards and while Lucy didn’t appear fazed by the reptiles, Joey was less keen.
‘It’s scratching the hell out of me,’ he said of one of the lizards.
‘He’s biting me,’ he later said as one crept towards his manhood.
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! starts on ITV1 on Sunday night at 9pm.
