CHICAGO - Illinois' former first lady won't be queen of the jungle.
Patti Blagojevich on Tuesday was voted off NBC's reality series "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" She lasted 23 days in the Costa Rican jungle as a replacement for her husband, who was barred by a judge from leaving the state amid his pending corruption charges.
Patti Blagojevich said during Tuesday's episode that her favorite moments on the series include being tossed into a river and making her way out, and speaking to her family over the Internet.
Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich has pleaded not guilty to wide-ranging federal charges, including attempting to sell an appointment to Barack Obama's Senate seat.
Patti Blagojevich has said she did the show because of her family's finances.
