By PajibaMuñiz may have been complaining about the assistant directors on set.
“Commercials can be surprising or horrendous,” he said in I’m a celebrity. “There’s not much in between. Your job is to keep production on schedule. So when a department like electrical, hair, makeup or sound needs more time to do something right, the account manager often doesn’t want to hear it.”
He continued: “Some are uptight idiots who start yelling and screaming like Gordon Ramsey because when the day is over and they have to feed the crew for the third time and start paying double and lose the child actors, it all falls on their shoulders. “It is an extremely stressful position and I would say most people are not cut out for it.”

He added that he “hated Los Angeles” and noted that living there was “a miserable experience.”
