People might say that free-to-air television is dead. But at the end of the day, those people don’t know what they’re talking about.
Love Island? MAFS? The Block?! Say what you like, but I know the truth. These shows are like literal crack. Period.
Anyways, yesterday we were treated to a sneak peak of all of the best (and worst) shows being screened on Channel 9 in 2025. The annual Nine Upfront event rounds up some of our favourite TV personalities to announce everything we can expect on tele next year. And consider this your sign to clear our your weeknight schedule for all of 2025, because shit’s getting good.
On top of all our existing favourites, we’ll also be scoring new shows like The Floor. In addition, Getaway is officially back. But what are we most excited for? Hands down, without a doubt, Australia’s very own The Golden Bachelor.
Now onto the fashion. And can we first say, Sophie Monk, the woman you are. I am in shock. I am in awe. 10/10 with zero comments. The 44-year old television host absolutely stunned in a baby pink cut-out mini that she paired with the most fabulous pair of silver, disco pumps that I’m now currently on the hunt for.
Other notable mentions go to Alison Langdon and Rachael Griffiths, who both look incredible. Of course, all of our beloved regulars such as Shelley Craft, Osher Gunsberg, Scotty Cam and Liz Hayes were also in attendance. Zero fashion faux pas, these pros 1000% know what they’re doing.
