And 26-year-old Jake's whereabouts have done nothing to dispel the stories since he has been spotted at a hotel in Australia.
On Tuesday, the singer was seen being escorted through a hotel on Australia's Gold Coast under the watchful eye of a chaperone, believed to be from ITV.
Jake enjoyed a cigarette as he made his way through the hotel, before sitting down for a coffee.
It has been widely reported that the singer - who was the fifth act to be booted off The X Factor during this year's live rounds - will join current celebrities including Melanie Sykes, Michael Buerk and Tinchy Stryder in the Australian bush on Wednesday.
The wannabe pop star is said to be on an internet lockdown as he awaits his entry into the jungle, but his Twitter feed has cleverly been updated while he's Down Under.




In one post, a picture of him shirtless in the gym was shared with his 300,000 followers, while he gave fans the biggest hint to date that he was I'm A Celeb-bound when he posted a cryptic tweet about the show being the best of its kind on TV.
He wrote ahead of Sunday's premiere: 'TV is getting some much better with i'm a celebrity starting tonight....Buzzing.'
