Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo almost turned down I’m A Celeb

Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo almost turned down ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’.
The ‘Made in Chelsea’ star has been very open about her battle with acne since she left the jungle last year but she has admitted she almost rejected the chance because she was worried that people would clock on to her skin condition while on the show.
Speaking to Star magazine, she said: "Yeah, it was really close.
"What would be the point in going on the UK’s biggest show being all upset and self-conscious? I am only me with my foundation."
And, although it’s something that bothers her, the 23-year-old beauty is keen to use her level of fame to help others by launching a self-confidence campaign on ‘This Morning’.
She explained: "We’re launching this big self-confidence campaign on ‘This Morning’. I’ve been overwhelmed by the response. I’ve had people find pictures of me that they’ll upload on to social media. They’ll tag me and say: ‘Oh my God, look at Georgia’s skin.’ I don’t respond, I just ignore it. But I don’t block anyone. I think the haters should be embarrassed about what they’ve said."
Toff is currently going through her third round of Roaccutane – a medication primarily used to treat severe acne – in a bid to get rid of her pimples but she has admitted there are days when she looks at her skin and bursts into tears.
She said recently "It’s a mask that I put on. The thing with confidence is that it can be masked really well. I’m so jolly all of the time and I’m really an extrovert but deep down you can be hiding a few insecurities. So sometimes I shout loudest to cover it up.
"I cry all the time about it (my spots). Some days I have a little cry and I tell myself to pull myself together. Some people have it a lot worse than I do."
