Tourism Australia Taps Robert Irwin to Lure US Travellers Down Under
Australian celebrity Robert Irwin, English television cook Nigella Lawson, Chinese actor Yosh Yu, and other international stars have been unveiled as the new faces to lure overseas tourists Down Under. Videos featuring these celebrities set against iconic Australian landscapes will be part of the federal government's latest tourism campaign aimed at attracting travellers from the UK, United States, China, Japan, and India. Robert Irwin, the son of the late Australian wildlife icon Steve Irwin, will front the advertisement for the American market. Wellness advocate Sara Tendulkar will appear in ads for India, while Chinese actor Yosh (Shi) Yu, the UK's Lawson, and Japanese comedian Abareru-kun will feature in commercials airing in their respective home countries. The $130 million campaign expands on Tourism Australia's ' Come and Say G'day ' initiative, which introduced the beloved animated mascot Ruby the Roo. In the video, an American tourist loses his phone in the desert—only to be rescued by Irwin. 'G'day mate, just going for a stroll?' Irwin greets him. Looking defeated, the tourist responds, 'An emu took my phone.' Irwin grins and says, 'Well, we better go find it.' Tourism Australia Managing Director Phillipa Harrison said traditionally, tourism campaigns use one famous face across all markets. 'But for our latest campaign Ruby will be joined by well-known talent from five different markets to showcase personal lasting memories of a holiday to Australia,' Harrison said. 'These international stars combine with local talent ... to create bespoke invitations for five markets.' Tourism Recovery in Australia Since the resumption of global travel, Australia's domestic tourism industry has grown with the number of international arrivals expected to reach a record 10 million in 2026 and 11.8 million in 2029. More than 700,000 jobs and 360,000 Australian businesses depend on tourism, while Chinese travellers remain Australia's second biggest cohort of tourists behind New Zealand, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The advertisements will go live in China on TV and online from Aug. 7. 'Tourism is the lifeblood of so many communities right around the country and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs,' said Tourism Minister Don Farrell. Nonetheless, industry experts have expressed caution about over-relying on China. 'China's slowing economic growth, youth unemployment, and property sector instability could hinder outbound travel demand. A weaker yuan may reduce international travel spend,' said Janene Wardrop, principal of event planning business Ascot Event Management, in a previous interview with The Epoch Times. Wardrop stated that the three main risks of over-relying on the China market are strategic, economic, and geopolitical. 'AUST needs to ensure there is diversification,' she wrote. 'AUST needs to ensure they support the China market whilst also building resilience by building their tourism market by product diversification, risk scenario planning, market diversification and to create constructive and culturally tailored marketing to Tier 2/3 cities. 'Priority should be on quality over quantity and attract high-yield, low-impact travellers.'

‘Love Island UK's Whitney Responds to Lochan's Denial on TikTok
First JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez, now Lochan Nowacki and Whitney Adebayo—it's a rough time to be a Love Island alum (and a reality TV fan). Months after announcing their split, Love Island UK season 10 runners up Whitney and Lochan are making headlines after Whitney accused Lochan of calling her skin 'dirty.' Now, they're both telling their sides of the story on TikTok, and I think it's safe to a lot. This all started Friday, Aug. 1, when Whitney posted a TikTok hopping on the 'You look happier' trend. Sharing pics from her beachside vacation, she added, 'Thanks! I finally fell in love with my skin he used to call dirty.' Fans immediately began speculating that this was a thinly-veiled jab at Lochan, a suspicion later confirmed by Whitney's sister. According to reports, Whitney's sister, Liz (@lizbrowns), shared screenshots of a text chain with Lochan from August of 2024, in which he seemingly admits, 'I never said it thinking her skin is dirty, I feel sick I crossed line with joke but she said she can't look at me the same.' The screenshotted text exchange doesn't give much context, but Liz added her own commentary, saying that she was providing 'evidence' for those doubting her sister. 'I know what she went through and the fact that it took this long for her to heal and share her truth to be shamed is vile,' she wrote in part. 'As women we've all stayed in situations that didn't serve us, but when you get out that's when you really start to become a woman. Be kind and give grace.' Lochan responded with a video on Sunday, telling his side of the story. According to Lochan, he and Whitney were on a walk by his apartment when the incident occurred last summer. 'She had gotten her nails done and she, annoyingly, put her nails in my face and was like, 'My hands are so clean. Yours aren't.' I was like, 'No, they're not,' and I was annoyed her hands were in my face.' Lochan continued, claiming that he felt he was just making a joke. 'She looked at me in shock and said, 'You're calling me dirty?' I was taken aback by that,' he said. 'I felt insulted that my girlfriend, who I loved, who knows me and knows that I would never insinuate something like that, is calling me a racist.' In his five-minute video, Lochan also shared texts he claims are from Liz. 'Honestly I don't even need to know the context or conversation to assure that I know you're not racist, Loch,' she allegedly wrote, suggesting that she did not know the full context when sending the text. Lochan continued, saying that he had talks with Whitney's family, in part because Whitney was threatening expose him, saying, 'The world is going to see you for the racist you really are.' He added that the accusations that he would call her skin dirty were particularly 'devastating' for him as a multiracial man, noting that his mother is Indian. After Lochan's video went live, Whitney came back with a TikTok of her own, recalling her version of events. 'I was in the sun, and I was like, 'Babe, look how my skin glistens in the sun.' And he looked at me and was like, 'Ugh, it's dirty.' And then only when I lashed out, he was like, 'It was a joke, it was a joke,'' she said. Whitney claimed that Lochan was crying and immediately started calling her family members to insist that he meant no harm. 'Because he gives off, like, this golden retriever energy, no one would believe he would ever say it maliciously,' she explained. The two broke up after the incident, but later reconciled—a cycle she claimed they would repeat over the course of their two-year relationship. Not only that, but Whitney claimed that she endured many not-so-micro aggressions throughout, including a recurring bit from Lochlan's mother who would tell her to 'smile' so she could see her in the dark. She also accused him of being a 'culture vulture,' essentially using her for clout while 'condoning' his friends who used the N-word and calling her 'ghetto' and 'too loud.' Her final message to Lochan? 'You didn't love me, you loved what I could give you until I could no longer give it to you. So please stop lying, Lochan, please.' Lochan has yet to respond.
