I'm A Celebrity star Tony Bellew triumphed on Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? Celebrity Special on Sunday night, despite self-deprecatingly calling himself "stupid" in front of the audience.

On Sunday's episode, Tony occupied the hot seat following former Coronation Street actress Julie Hesmondhalgh's £64,000 charity win.The ex-boxer expressed his determination to host Jeremy Clarkson to outdo his boxing ring rival David Haye's previous £8,000 win.After securing £2,000, Jeremy queried if Tony wished to set a safety net at £4,000, to which Tony replied: "I can't do that yet.

You know what, I'm not going to lie I think I shouldn't really tell you my thinking process out loud because it lets everyone know how stupid I really am."Nevertheless, Tony humorously retorted to the audience, saying: "I've got an excuse for being stupid, I've been punched in the face for 25 years.

You lot have got no excuse like that. You can't get away with it. I've got a great excuse, you haven't. I'm just not the brightest, I'm not the sharpest."Despite his claims of lacking intelligence, Tony impressively bagged £64,000 for Alder Hey Children's Hospital, correctly answering his final question without any remaining lifelines.Eventually, with Jeremy's assistance, he established his safety net at £16,000.After phoning a friend on the £32,000 question, Tony faced the critical £64,000 moment alone.
