Bluey! I am posing with Bluey. My year is complete.

Art director Jacqui Page and I had the privilege of hanging out with the cast of ABC’s Mystery Road (from left, Tasia Zalar, Aaron Pedersen and Wayne Blair) when they won the Silver Logie for Most Popular Drama. Photo by Tina Smigielski.

We’re on the balcony of [character] Gareth’s house in The Gloaming, and it’s a beautiful view out to Hobart. It was fantastic to spend two days on location for this eerie murder mystery and to explore this city. Photo by Bradley Patrick.

My hair is a mess, I’m a mess, but Jeff Probst is just fine! My first Survivor location in 14 years, and it’s back at my last location, Fiji (in 2006). Great to speak to a lot of contestants I’ve profiled in People and meet some new ones, plus reunite with press and PR friends. My coverage will be excerpted in TV WEEK (thank you, Nine Network).

After taking in the wonderfully award-worthy films Jojo Rabbit and Little Women, it was time for excess! Explosions! Exclamations! In other words, it was time to get Bay-ified. So Matt and I went to the premiere of 6 Underground and it was satisfying to see on a big screen.

Big movies attract local stars such as comedian and TV host Rove McManus (shielded above).

Yes, I go for big celeb appearances, like Goose here.

The future king! I chatted with Isaac Hempstead Wright about that epic third ep of the final season of Game of Thrones.

After interviewing Isaac Hempstead Wright earlier in the day, I headed to his Q&A session at this screening, but not before I took my rightful place on the as-yet-undestroyed Iron Throne.

What a pleasure to speak with Miranda Tapsell about her wonderful rom-com set in the NT!

Matt and I got our dance on before we were entertained by Aussie celebs trying to cha-cha into our hearts!

I got a chance to speak briefly with Nicole Kidman for her latest film, Destroyer, and a teaser about Big Little Lies’ second season. When she talks about supporting women in film, she is at her most focused and enthusiastic, which is great to see. Here she is before coming to our print section of the red carpet.

Netflix put on a big night under the stars to premiere its first full Australian production, the supernatural series Tidelands. The company screened the first two episodes and then hosted a chat with the principal cast, which included leading ladies Charlotte Best, Elsa Pataky and Madeleine Madden.

While I interviewed them at length on the Clunes, Victoria, set of Bloom, I did not take a photo with them (still getting used to the idea of doing that). So I caught up with Ryan Corr and Phoebe Tonkin in Sydney for a video chat thanks to streaming service Stan.

While I loved interviewing the cast of Seven’s Ms Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries, I was inspired by observing the work of a predominantly female crew. In this image are (from left) assistant editor Ariel Shaw, cinematographer Kathy Chambers, and director Fiona Banks.

Caught with my friend Deb Grunfeld and the handmaids at the SBS upfront.

All the vodka!

How to Stay Married star Lisa McCune spent the day with the TV WEEK team for some gorgeous photos to be used across the weekly and monthly editions of the magazine. Here we are in a beautiful Melbourne home on a day with some great natural light.

I’m standing in the fabulous kitchen set for Iris’s family in the ABC serial drama The Heights, which will air February 2019.

TV editor Cindy Sanz and I met up with “new TV stars” Ryan Seacrest and Simon Cowell at the Fox upfronts for the start of American Idol. It had to start somewhere!

For a feature in which we go over key scenes from each episode of season one of The Good Doctor, star Freddie Highmore provided illuminating background detail into the filming process and his insight into how he approached he moment.

In addition to catching up with hosts Jake Ellis and Megan Mark, whom I interviewed that morning, I spoke with Matthew ‘Matty J’ Johnson and Laura Byrne, whose love story I chronicled for WHO much the same way I did Trista and Ryan’s story for People. Except Matty and Laura are not married. Yet.

To launch the American Express Music Backers program in Australia, which sees money directed yearly to a worthy music-related project in the country, The Killers performed an exclusive, intimate set in a restored Selina’s.

Well of course I am going to hug a wookiee.

Catching up with Nine Network stars. From the back, took this of Kelly Rowland egging on fellow Voice coach Boy George during the more formal part of the evening.

Singer, actress and Voice Coach Delta Goodrem worked with photographer Peter Brew-Bevan and her styling team during our shoot, which happened after our interview.

Posing with Foxtel/Showcase guest James Marsden along with Nicholas Fonseca and Scott Hayes (right). Who are the hosts and who are the humans?

Network Ten brought over two cast members for the inaugural season of Bachelor in Paradise Australia—Luke McLeod (left) and Davey Lloyd—to give us an idea of what to expect.

Director Steven Spielberg and actor Tye Sheridan answered audience questions via satellite from London in a session moderated by Empire Australia editor James Jennings following the screening.

Oscar-nominated actress Margot Robbie returns to Australia to introduce the movie in which she stars and has a producing credit.

A special opportunity to hear Sam Smith perform a mini-set ahead of his Australian concerts later in the year.

Getting to walk the red carpet while it was in progress led us to linger behind Zac Efron as he was doing interviews, but it also let us take a long look at Zendaya’s amazing Moschino butterfly dress.

Hey, they provide the photo ops and we do ‘em.

My husband is ready for the movie. He has a guard.

The whole cast came out to tell stories and salute director Stephen Elliott for his nostalgic look at ‘70s culture.

Rebel Wilson (red) revelled in her homecoming as she and co-stars (from left) Ruby Rose (a fellow Aussie), Brittany Snow and Anna Camp gave premiere attendees a joke-filled intro to Pitch Perfect 3.

The List editor Deb Grunfeld and I got to meet our Season 2 Australian Survivor heroes, runner up Tara Pitt and winner Jericho Malabonga. Both continue to do charity work, using their fame wisely.

No, I am not above promo photos on premiere nights.

After interviewing the incredible Jimmy Barnes for the release of his second memoir, Working Class Man, ace photographer Peter Brew-Bevan got to work.

Two Olympians chatting. So fun.

A behind-the-scenes shot of Peter Brew-Bevan’s shoot with our cover subject, Sam Frost.

A fascinating talk about the makings of the second season of Top of the Lake with Nicole Kidman (in yellow) on the right.

Erika Girardi is smart, down-to-earth, and more than ready to admit that Erika Jayne is her on-air personality. She came through Sydney to promote Hayu, an all-reality online streaming service. Her interview will appear later in Who, but she was happy to take snap.

Kids got a chance to meet Gru, Dru and a host of Minions, plus eat banana-flavoured ice cream pops, at the Despicable Me 3 premiere. Here, Kevin and Stuart welcome the crowd.

Matt and I felt the power! 

The view from our seats. Before the movie began, there was a Q&A with the cast led by presenters Richard Wilkins and Sonia Kruger (the two people on the far left). The cast present were (from left): director Alex Kurtzman, Annabelle Wallis, Sofia Boutella, Russell Crowe and Tom Cruise. This was all at the lovely State Theatre, which is where I saw Bonnie Raitt and Rhiannon Giddens in April.

Stan, the streaming service that airs Showtime's Twin Peaks in Australia, sent me this wonderful ice-cream, black cherry-inspired pie. Damn good promotion!

My first time in a fascinator! The very nice PR team at Channel 7 invited me to the Championships (Day 1) at the Royal Randwick Racecourse in Sydney. Matt and I got to experience the all-out nature of race attendance (and I won some sweet $$ betting on Jon Snow — really, that was the horse's name!). Here I am with My Kitchen Rules contestants (from left) David Vu, Betty Banks and Cyn Cuoco.

It's a rare night out for me and Matt, and although we are aware of the controversy surrounding the casting of Ghost in the Shell, we went into the film with open minds and enjoyed it for the final product.

Is the top of March a bit early for the Easter Bunny? Sure, sure, but I won't miss a chance for a mascot photo! And free chocolate.

How lovely to have an office Christmas party... at the beach! Here we are, toasting the end to a great 2016. From left: Who books editor Karina Machado, me, features editor Karlie Rutherford (now of Sydney Confidential), and deputy editor Fiona Tomarchio (now onto new digital ventures).

To think Cara Leggett and I met while folding sweaters at the Express back in college! Now we both live and work in Sydney and often our lives intersect in the best of ways. In this case, Cara is part of Disney publicity and handling Rogue One, and I am covering the film's premiere for Who. 

Nicholas Fonseca took this snap of me speaking to Isla Fisher, who won the 2016 Trailblazer Award at the AACTAs. That's her husband Sacha Baron Cohen to her right. I would later talk to Isla by phone about her series of children's books.

Here is a look behind the scenes at the media room in the Star Event Centre in Sydney as the members of Crowded House take questions after being inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. ABC Radio anchor Robbie Buck moderated questions. 

Karl Urban, the star of many convention-worthy films and TV shows, agreed to an on-the-floor social post for Who Magazine. He was good natured and eager to answer many fan Q&A questions. He certainly knows his audience!

Not a day back full-time at WHO Magazine's Eveleigh office and I get to have a photo taken with The Bachelor Australia's fourth main man, Richie Strahan. He said he takes the best selfies, so here is his one with me.

After covering Survivor in the US, I was not expecting to resume the beat in Australia, but Network Ten got down to the ambitious task of relaunching the series here with a cast of 24 and 55 days of action. At the centre of if is host Jonathan LaPaglia, an actor for whom this would be his first reality TV gig. Needless to say, he did great, and he has an affable charm and ease.

Theon Greyjoy is neither arrogant nor tortured in real life! I interviewed Alfie Allen of Game of Thrones for Who Magazine and after our chat, seeing how happy I and the publicists were at meeting each other after months of communicating via email, he suggested a photo was in order. This was taken by Showcase rep Vanessa Hollins.

After writing about the Netflix series Making a Murderer for WHO Magazine, I got a chance to meet filmmakers Laura Ricciardi (far right) and Moira Demos at this public talk, hosted by Charlie Pickering.

Seeing the great Conchita Wurst in concert was amazing. The 2014 Eurovision winner was in fine form and voice. In the middle of her show, she introduced Dami Im as Australia's entrant in this year's Eurovision. There was a post-show cocktail gathering with Conchita and Dami.

I rule.

Matt and I were lucky to attend the Sydney premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens with Disney rep and friend Cara Leggett and her husband Christian Beserra. We also came home with some terrific swag. You can see more pictures on our Flickr album.

I got to Skype-interview Jeff Probst for the CBS commemorative book on Survivor's 30 seasons but it was much better catching up with him in person.

Matt joins me as we pose with Baymax at the Big Hero 6 screening. A bonus? We saw Margaret and David! I know that means nothing to those in the U.s. but Australians totally know why we geeked out.

Writing and reporting do not happen in a vacuum. For one of the last stories I did as a full-time editor at People, I traveled to Seattle to catch up with Jake and Josh Harris, crab fishermen and sons of the late Cornelia Marie captain Phil Harris of Deadliest Catch fame. Here I am in the red coat with Jake to my left and Josh in the LFS hoodie. Photographer Corey Arnold is in the blue knit cap and Discovery Channel publicist Laurie Goldberg is in black on the far right. The crew also consists of Corey's photo assistant and two stylists. You can read the end result under the People Magazine tab for Telling Stories.

Jake and Josh Harris, more used to hauling large crab pots in sub-zero temperatures on the Bering Sea, held up pretty well on a long shooting day for People. Corey Arnold took photos of them at both of their houses before driving down to Fisherman's Wharf in Seattle for some final images.

Getting a chance to meet Bert the Chimney Sweep in person was not a chance taken lightly. Fortunately, Dick Van Dyke welcomed us into his Malibu home and even had coffee and donuts at the ready. He was generous with his time, doing a little soft-shoe in one picture and playing piano in another, and told great stories about the tremendous collection of photos and paintings in his house, including a portrait of his idol, Stan Laurel, above the piano. "A wonderfully charming English gentleman," Van Dyke says. "I told him that I stole a lot from him and he said, 'I noticed that!'" Read the story under the People Magazine tab.

Alas, this text will fall over the visages of Roma Downey's beautiful Irish wolfhounds! But they were gentle giants and very well behaved. Spending time with Roma and Mark Burnett made me realize just how appreciative they were of their success — every element of their home was thoughtful and well curated. Their talk of gratitude was not empty, either; while I was there, the couple were on the phone to their kids, reminding them to write thank you notes for gifts they had received.

Photo by Ian White.

Mark Burnett is a collector of classic American cars, like this restored milk truck. We went on a short drive south on the Pacific Coast Highway, where he reminisced about our time at the press junket for Survivor: Palau. To see more of Mark and Roma's home, please find the article under People Magazine in the Telling Stories section.

You know how Mark Burnett titled one of his memoirs Jump In! Even If You Don't Know How to Swim? Curiously the book came out after he showed me the sunken WWII wreckage in Palau and then offered me swimming lessons.

Michael Vartan arrived at Pickwick Ice in Burbank, Calif., on a Sunday morning with a bag full of gear and a bundle of energy. He couldn't wait to share his passion for hockey. Also, "a shoot without makeup?" he said happily. "This is great!" Sure enough, you could see his joy even as he demonstrated to photographer Emily Shur how he could spray the lens with ice for a more dramatic picture. He told me he hoped his love of the sport could earn it more fans. "I mean," he said, "all these kids, to a man in the NHL, are well-spoken… and embody such values that America's all about." To read the story, go to the People Magazine tab under Telling Stories.

Outside the Star Casino in Pyrmont, Paramount Pictures threw out the red carpet for Brad Pitt during the Australian launch of his film World War Z. Yes, it was pronounced "World War Zed" here! My position on the carpet placed me across from the announcer platform, where TV presenter Richard Wilkins had the honor of counting down the minutes until the arrival of Mr. Pitt.

So here he is, making his way down the carpet! I am with two other print reporters at the far end, right before the dash into the theater. Brad Pitt did stop to speak to us, however. If you'd like to read my coverage of Brad Pitt Down Under, find the story under the Who Magazine tab in Telling Stories.

My biggest celebrity! Grover. I was lucky to get on Sesame Street three times, but here is my first, doing a piece on Tarah Lynne Schaeffer, the first child in a wheelchair on the series. To read the story, click here.

Both Jessica Herndon and I covered American Idol's ninth season and had gotten to know the contestants so well, we celebrated their survival with a dinner at the London. We were joined by Michael Cilnis and Chloe Ellers, the tireless reps from BWR who worked with them 24/7. Pictured left to right: Siobhan Magnus, Andrew Garcia, Casey James, Katie Stevens, Didi Benami, Tim Urban, Aaron Kelly, Jessica Herndon, Cynthia Wang.

I got to relive an old gig by attending the Television Critics Association summer press tour in 2013 for sessions with ABC and PBS. Tweeting out remarks made by actor Tom Hiddleston (center) in regard to his interpretation of Henry V got me some very nice attention by fan groups (such as the lovely HiddlesGoddesses) and Tom himself, who is now following me on Twitter. Pictured from left are producers David Horne and Gareth Naeme.

This is not the first time I've met Cookie Monster. Back when I worked in People's New York bureau, I went to Sesame Street twice and have reported on the Muppets and muppeteers for several features. I even have a photo with Grover. But yes, it was nice to see Cookie again.

Yes, sometimes attractive men show up at your workplace bearing a Coolhaus ice cream truck. Such was the case when (from left) Nick Wechsler, Connor Paolo, Josh Bowman, and Gabriel Mann, along with the PR teams from ABC and Sony, chatted with the staff in a meet-and-greet for the first season of Revenge. It was fun catching up with Mann, with whom I spoke for a feature on director Allison Anders 10 years before.

On Sept. 4, 2008, Howie Mandel celebrated his series Deal Or No Deal going into syndication and his getting a star on the Walk of Fame. He told me, "Here's a guy who's the ultimate germaphobe, and the biggest accolade I've ever received is something that is going to be stepped on, spit on, stained and made filthy!" Mandel partied just fine later on with some Suitcase Models in close proximity.

Although her and her fiancé's flat may be small, My Kitchen Rules contestant Anna Lisle accommodated the Who crew with a welcome openness. She and Andrew Turner had a blast while talking about their wedding plans and showing off their Victorian terrace home. To read the feature, please check out the Who Magazine tab under Telling Stories.

I got to go on a group date at a New York Knicks game with hot guys in October 2004! Okay, it's not as exciting in that I was covering it for People and not actually the bachelorette. That honor befell Jen Schefft. Meanwhile, in some downtime, we got to shoot hoops at Madison Square Garden. Here's host Chris Harrison showing off his, uh, form, with Bachelor creator Mike Fleiss (black T-shirt) in the background. 

Dancing With the Stars is one of many reality shows I've covered and I've been lucky to have had the chance to take friends and family to tapings. The work for us comes after the show ends and all press converge to the dance floor and stand behind white stanchions waiting to talk to the couples. Here are Julianne Hough and partner Cody Linley.

This is the press room at the Star Event Centre where reporters can watch the performances and speeches at the ARIAs, Australia's version of the Grammys, and later interview winners. In the green dress is singer Samantha Jade. To read my coverage of the ARIAs, go to the Who Magazine tab under Telling Stories.

Am I going to pass up an opportunity to take a photo with Debbie Harry? Of course not. She came to the People office and I and Pamela Warrick went in for the shot. Love her.

Larry King marked the end of his long-running CNN show Larry King Live with a celebration at Wolfgang Puck's Spago. Once King arrived, it was a crush to get close to him, but I managed this shot of him thanking everyone for coming. One highlight of the party was getting to tell Jimmy Kimmel how much I loved the Christoph Waltz "Der Humpink" sketch and having him elaborate on the making of it.

How wonderful to see Lisa Ling happy and joyful. She married Paul Song at the old train station in Los Angeles and had catering from Din Tai Fung. Also a relief — attending as a guest and not as a reporter! Cheers to the Ling-Songs and their growing family.

Having covered the FOX series Glee from its start, producers and reps invited me to participate in a holiday charity event benefitting the Education Through Music program. It was a nice chance to just speak casually with the cast and crew and help a bunch of excited kids make their own paper instruments. 

Yes, partying with Tommy Lee. It's all part of covering Rock Star: Supernova for People. And yes, that's Pro Publica reporter extraordinary Charles Ornstein right alongside Tommy!

In the scramble to secure an interview with swimmer Michael Phelps, I finally landed set access privileges for the Today Show, where I waited to speak with Phelps in the time between his intro and his interview with Matt Lauer. In the process, I got to watch Daniel Boulud cook (with Meredith Vieira and Al Roker watching). I've interviewed them all before, but Boulud was especially appreciative of my past coverage and invited me to eat at his new restaurant in Beijing. I mean, of course!

If you've ever wanted to see what a big-time award show after party looks like, here is a peek at the post-Creative Arts Emmy Awards festivities at the Shrine Auditorium in downtown LA.

I met Amber Brkich and "Boston" Rob Mariano in Panama while covering Survivor: All-Stars, watching them go from competitors to lovebirds and being on-hand for their engagement at that season's finale when Amber won, Rob proposed, and their career as Reality TV's King and Queen took off. After reporting along with Ulrica Wihlborg at their wedding in the Bahamas in April 2005, I followed them to the One & Only Palmilla for their honeymoon, which doubled as my and my husband's "pre-wedding honeymoon," too!

I couldn't resist taking a photo of Cheryl Burke's Dancing With the Stars mirror-ball trophy while at her house for our at-home feature. You can read the story under the People Magazine tab for Telling Stories.

There was actually a time when NCIS was not on the air. I know, right? Well, this was the start of it all. People TV editor Cindy Sanz (center) got me to take a photo with her and the cast of NCIS when the show was first shown to advertisers in May 2003. In the photo, from left: publicist Diane Ekeblad, Michael Weatherly, Sanz, Mark Harmon, Pauley Perrette, me, and David McCallum.

What an exciting time to be at People magazine. It was Dec. 31, 1999, and every reporter had to cover something happening at the the dawn of Y2K. I got to talk to Billy Joel, who reflected on his decades-long career, and then got to see him perform at Madison Square Garden. My friend Erika and I later joined him and his crew backstage for a bit of New Year's cheer. That's how my 21st century started. So cool.

Todd Beeton and I had a blast bowling while Ben Folds was performing a set at the All Star Lanes in Eagle Rock. You could either watch the show or bowl (with the show on a screen). We bowled. But to see what it was like inside, someone kindly recorded video of 'Weird' Al Yankovic joining Ben Folds for "Song For the Dumped." And Glen Phillips from Toad the Wet Sprocket was there, too.

Ready to rock it! Here I am with People colleagues (from left to right) Julie Dam, Chuck Arnold and Anne Marie Cruz, at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills before being taken by limo to the Grammys. 

Photos by Damian Bennett.

As part of Peter Castro's January 2013 cover story on Jennifer Lopez for People, I and photographer Damian Bennett were sent to capture backstage action at her Dec. 18, 2012 Sydney show. Clockwise from top left: Manager Benny Medina and choreographer/boyfriend Casper Smart watch on; Lopez with son Max and an assistant; Lopez doing post-show interviews; Lopez's mom Guadeloupe Rodriguez having a blast.

If you knew me and Mary, you would know this was the dream. We were able to cover a Super Bowl together. I was later able to tell Warren Sapp, when he was on Dancing with the Stars, that I had actually met him earlier in his career, in the locker room at the time of his victory. 

In the midst of covering Andrew Firestone's Bachelor season and beyond, I took a trip to Vegas one weekend for some promotional events involving Firestone and ABC reps Alison Rou (second from right) and Jennifer Verti (far right). The kicker — at the airport, Jen won a ton of quarters from a slot machine just as we were about to board. Alison and I had laundry money for weeks!

Rapper-actress Eve was at UPN (remember that? pre CW?) to launch her eponymous sitcom, which lasted three seasons. 

Before Everybody Loves Raymond, there was just the comic Ray Romano. You can see how leery we both are of taking a photo. I guess it would be easier these days with cameraphones a plenty, but this required some effort on the part of Ray's manager to get us together for this Polaroid! This was just before his sitcom would launch him into the stratosphere.

When I was working in the Miami bureau for People, I flew to the island nation of Guadeloupe to interview Tori Murden, the first American woman to row solo across the Atlantic, who had arrived there after 81 days at sea. On the flight back to the States, though she had a window seat, Tori never once looked out of it to the ocean below. I suppose he had 'been there, done that.' Read the story here.

Here I am with former world No. 1 billiards player Jeanette Lee, the Black Widow! Hers was the first profile I was allowed to write at People. The story went from a three-pager to a two-pager and finally just a page, but Jeanette was always appreciative. You can read the text of that piece, which came out in 1995, here.

Of course I went to Sanrio's 50th anniversary party at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. And here I am, posing with My Melody. Yes.

You see, sometimes when you cover press events, they do things like this.

This is Dave Salmoni (kneeling), Animal Planet presenter and naturalist. He brought along a friends (one furry) to promote his show Into the Pride.

While I always was a fan of Berlin, I got to meet Teri Nunn while covering Mark Burnett's Rock Star series. Teri would come to some of the house parties on Sunday night to sing alongside the contestants and the house band. She was down to earth and still a powerhouse! Here was a chance for me to see her with her band a few years later.

Julie Dam and I pose with the wonderful Meshach Taylor, known for his roles in Designing Women and Criminal Minds. Taylor died in 2014.

I think Homer Simpson qualifies as a huge celebrity. 

This is Ekaterina Gordeeva signing autographs backstage at Madison Square Garden following the Stars on Ice show. 

What is it with me and non-human celebrities?

I was working on a profile of pitcher Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez when I got a chance to interview Joe Torre. Yes, it was very exciting. A wonderful photographer took pictures of my time there; otherwise it would have been only a memory.

Yes, Erika Steininger, Erin Mielke and I were crazy enough to sit through the original Lord of the Rings trilogy, extended versions, natch, just to get to the Q&A with (from left) Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Andy Serkis and Bernard Hill. It was at Avery Fisher Hall, though, so, you know, classy.

Here is a very blurry photo of me holding Jeff Probst's Outstanding Reality Show Host Emmy for, like 10 seconds. Picture courtesy Lori Dellicolli!

Thrilling to join Trista and Ryan Sutter in Kona, along with their friends and family, for Ryan’s Ironman. Photos for People by Bo Bridges. Here is Ryan in the run portion, No. 178.

I got to spend 24 hours with the American Idol crew sent to Toledo for the homecoming of Crystal Bowersox. I should put all the images in a Flickr album because the day was exhilarating. So many emotions for Crystal, who ultimately placed second to Lee DeWyze.
