Joseph Ellis Pasquale (born 20 August 1961) is an English comedian, actor and television presenter, known for being crowned "King of the Jungle", in the fourth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! in 2004.
In January 2013, Pasquale became one of twelve celebrities participating in the eighth series of Dancing on Ice, with skating partner Vicky Ogden. The following year Pasquale participated in the show again in an All Stars series. This time he was partnered with Robin Johnstone.
Pasquale is known for the naturally high pitch of his voice which he uses to heighten the comic value of his jokes.
He has also hosted the revived version of the game show The Price is Right.
Pasquale attended Torells Comprehensive School, Grays, Essex. He then worked for the Civil Service's Department of Transport before joining the Smithfield meat market. The hours at the meat market became too much for a young Pasquale, so he left to work at a building site and as a spot welder at the Ford factory in Dagenham.
For a few years, Pasquale worked as an entertainer at holiday camps across the UK and became entertainment manager at Warner Holidays in Corton in Suffolk. Later, he became entertainment manager at Torquay. His big break arrived when he entered and came second in the New Faces competition in 1987.
Pasquale's live shows include Live And Squeaky (1996), Twin Squeaks (1997), The Crazy World Of Joe Pasquale (1998), Bubble And Squeak (2000), The Everything I Have Ever Done & The First Of Many Goodbye Tours (2004), Does He Really Talk Like That? The Live Show (2005) and Return Of The Love Monkey (2006).
