Channel 10 has shared the first teaser for the upcoming season of The Amazing Race Australia: Celebrity Edition, featuring 11 teams made up of Aussie stars and their loved ones.

The new season, which is hosted by Beau Ryan, will see the cast travel to India, Malaysia, Cambodia and Borneo to try and win $100,000 for their chosen charity.

“Celebrities racing around the world, what could possibly go wrong?” Beau says in the trailer.

The teaser shows model Bec Judd and her sister Kate Twigley being scared by a woman apparently asking for money while sitting in the back of a tuk-tuk, and Australian Survivor fan-favourite George Mladenov encouraging his sister Pam to “vomit and get up”.

Former Real Housewives star Jackie Gillies is also heard saying she’s “scared of heights” before parasailing with her husband, Silverchair drummer Ben Gillies

One of the most dramatic moments in the trailer is popular TV host Grant Denyer dramatically collapsing on the floor and requiring urgent medical attention while his wife Chezzi stands over him.

“Can we get the medic? He’s shaking, he’s shivering,” a voice is heard saying.

The Gold Logie winner is shown lying on his side with his head resting on a pile of clothes surrounded by empty bottles of water and cans of Red Bull.
