It doesn’t look like hell-raiser Daniel Baldwin is about to replace Heidi and Spencer Pratt on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here. Various outlets had reported Tuesday that Daniel, 48, was about to join his younger brother Stephen Baldwin, 43, on the Costa Rican island but his rep told RadarOnline.com that the story isn’t true.

His publicist John McGaillard told RadarOnline.com that the swap was “news to him” and that his client was still in California attending business meetings.
The brothers have a notorious ‘love-hate’ relationship and sparks would most certainly fly if the pair hooked-up on the show. Daniel – whose other brothers are actors Alec and Billy Baldwin – is trying to get his career back-on-track after several drug busts in recent times. But with his wife Joanne about to give birth to their second child later this summer the timing may not be right.
Although NBC are remaining tight-lipped about Heidi and Spencer’s departure they are understood to be scrambling around to find replacements. It’s understood that they have reached out to several members from The Hills to see if they will step in to replace the husband and wife who went AWOL after only one episode of the jungle reality show.

Now that a judge has barred Rod Blagojevich from filming I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here in Costa Rica, is looks like his wife Patti will be taking his place RadarOnline.com has confirmed.
"Patti is definitely thinking about it for the obvious financial reasons," Rod's attorney Sheldon Sorosky said. "Patti is not involved in any
of the legal proceedings about her husband so there is nothing to prevent her from going."
The former governor of Illinois was signed on to appear on the reality show alongside Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Janice Dickinson and other notorious celebs until a judge nixed his plans. (The ousted politico is still facing federal fraud charges.)
Blagojevich was indicted last month on a host of Federal corruption charges, which is what led Judge Zagel to bar him from leaving the country. "If the show was shooting in the Florida Everglades, he could have gone," Sorosky added.
Sorosky declined to confirm if Mrs. B is Costa Rica-bound, but RadarOnline.com has learned she was spotted at the Federal building in Chicago on Monday applying for an expedited passport. "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here"
