Bindi Irwin reacts to brother Robert's viral underwear photoshoot: 'I can't unsee it...'
The 26-year-old conservationist - who is the daughter of late Crocodile Hunter star Steve Irwin - recently had to endure her brother Robert, 21, stripping down to his boxers for a promotional deal with Bonds as well as appearing shirtless in his Dancing with the Stars announcement and has found it "rough" to see the whole thing go viral.
Speaking on the 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast, she told host Kylie Kelce: "There are some things as his sister that I can't just unsee.
"When he did the Dancing announcement, he was shirtless, and when he did his Bonds commercial, he was just in his underwear,r and it is…it is rough."
Despite her embarrassment over her brother's sudden sex appeal, she "really is so proud of him" because of how he is managing to get their message of conservation out there, what she is choosing to focus on.
She said: I really am so proud of him. He's taking the message of conservation to new heights. He's really nailing the, 'Hey look over here,' and steering them in the right direction.
"I was probably liking and commenting on his 'steering in the other direction' posts. Rather than his um...
"Watching him grab people's attention in such a big way.
'And then pivot and say, 'Here's what we do, here's our work, here's our dedication to wildlife and conservation and you can get involved.' It is wonderful and extraordinary to watch him shine.'
The Crikey It's The Irwins star is "a little bit scared" of some of her brother's female fans but still thinks her brother is "doing really well" with how he is coping with all of the sudden attention on his body.
She said: "Do I get a little bit scared of the women and girls and some guys who are very intense? It can be a lot! But he's doing really well with all of it and I am very proud of him."
Robert recently explained that his new campaign may seem "out of the ordinary", he is appreciative of the "platform" he has so that he can continue to get the message about conversation out into the world.
He said: "It seems so out of the ordinary for what I would do, but I get to be with Aussie Wildlife, I get to approach a new audience, a new platform, and get my wildlife conservation message out there to more people. And that is what means so much to me and my family.
"I'm representing Australia! So I wanted to look my best and to feel my best and just feel really confident. And so I've done more sit-ups and had less carbs than I ever have in my life, but it's been fun..
"At Australia Zoo, our beautiful wildlife sanctuary, it's great, I've got about 700 acres to just run. So I've been doing a lot of sprints, a lot of hill sprints.
"My brother-in-law Chandler, he's a professional athlete so he gave me a lot of great tips. And my mom actually did bodybuilding! She had more biceps then than I'll ever have."

Nikki Garcia doesn't want to date following Artem Chigvintsev divorce
Nikki Garcia isn't interested in dating following her split from Artem Chigvintsev. The 41-year-old WWE star and the Dancing With the Stars professional divorced after two years of marriage last year but she isn't in a rush to find love again as she focuses on caring for her son Matteo, four, and her career in the ring and on TV. Speaking to her twin sister Brie Garcia on their The Nikki and Brie Show podcast, Nikki said: "At his age right now, I get so much love that I realise this is all the love I need and want right now." The Total Divas star explained that she has been on "a few" dates since her divorce but is refusing to "waste time and energy" looking for a new man. Nikki explained: "I was like, 'I'm not even going to waste time and energy.' I'm just too tired." She added: "I have Teo and I do career, Teo and career, so that's where I'm at." Nikki and Artem split last year after a row that saw the police called to their home and claims that she was seen as the "villain" in the divorce as she questioned the double standards of how men and women are portrayed by the media. In a preview from her appearance on Kristin Cavallari's Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour obtained by E! News, she said: "I think they make me, like, more of a villain than I am." Kristin - whose own marriage to Jay Cutler ended in 2022 - added: "Of course, you're a woman." Both Nikki and Brie believe that their jobs as professional wrestlers means that the pair are considered to be tougher than they actually are. Nikki said: "I feel like when you're badass women and you kick a** in a ring, people just assume you're not empathetic. "It's like we could go kick so much a** and, yeah, I'll pick a guy out in the crowd. I'll body slam you right now. I can do it... 'I'll pay for your hospital bill." Brie agreed: "Because we're pro wrestlers and all these things, we can come off so hard and tough." Nikki added: "I think that's the biggest misconception." The star also suggested that her WWE persona was used against her during her legal battle with Artem. Nikki said: "People bring up like, 'Well I don't know, 2017, your character in the ring.... I'm like, 'That's not real. I was playing a villain.' I was playing a character and they all think I'm that person. I mean, I heard it in court through the divorce. Because I was a strong woman, a pro wrestler."

Fake reality TV dancers forever worrying about 'the Nationals'
Every parent knows what it's like to have to sit next to their kid while they watch some show that is wonderful to them but painful to the adult. And you end up watching the show so often that it becomes burned into your subconscious. Such is the case with The Next Step, which my daughter - who is now well into her teens - used to watch when she was little. Looking at this latest episode (from season 10 so the show obviously has some legs) I can see little about this series set in a pretend dance studio has changed. It is still based heavily around a fake reality TV vibe, where the actors deliver pieces to camera as their character. Sure, it's a show for kids, but this is a really, really lazy way to provide the viewer with information. Also, there is still the unceasing quest to make "the nationals" - which is some sort of dance competition that forever hangs over their heads. I swear they mention "the nationals" at least a half-dozen times in every single episode. It's like it is the only thing that matters for these kids. Still on the subject of dancing, though unlike The Next Step above, this an an actual reality TV show. The success of this show is a little surprising - there is apparently enough appeal in the concept of dancing celebrities that two different networks have screened it. It was first on 7 from 2004-15, then jumped to Ten for two years from 2019 and has now returned home to 7 since 2021. Maybe it's because the show provides relatively wholesome viewing in the reality TV genre - an area that has come to be sordid, tacky or absurdly niche (seriously, how long before we get a show called Outback Truckers Whose First Name Starts with a T?). The darkest it gets on Dancing With the Stars are the comments from the nasty judge - and every reality TV show with a judging panel has to have one. The show is not my cup of tea but I do have respect for the celebs that risk the potential for embarrassment and give it a crack. And, for the most part, the celebs are actually people you know. No Instagrammers looking to eke out the final seconds of their 15 minutes of fame here. The reality of this TV show isn't quite as revealing as the title would suggest, but it still offers a slightly different view of life in the cooking game. Host Tom Kerridge has been a chef for a number of years, switching over to the world of TV - as it seems more and more chefs do. He is pretty honest about the rough side of hospitality - perhaps more so than his guests. For instance, Kerridge is pretty open about the problems he - and by extension others - have with alcohol. He worked hard in the kitchen and then, when service would finish, he'd hit the bottle hard too. So much so that he admits if he didn't stop he would have been dead. All the other reveals - like exactly what everyone does in the kitchen - can't compete with that bombshell. Still, they provide some interesting info. Before watching this show I didn't realise there's one guy in the kitchen whose job it is to put together all the bits and pieces others have been cooking to make the dish that goes out to the customer.

'Don't know if I'm allowed to say this': Channel 10's Grant Denyer drops bizarre behind-the-scenes bombshell about Deal or No Deal
Seasoned presenter Grant Denyer has revealed a bizarre behind-the-scenes detail about Channel 10's Deal or No Deal- something he claims has never happened on any other game show he's hosted. Speaking to podcast host Andrew Bucklow on Monday, Denyer, 47, admitted that for reasons still unclear, a surprising number of people faint while filming the hit program. "I've never said this and I don't even know if I'm allowed to, but we have quite a few fainters!" Denyer said. "So, up on the podium where people are holding the cases, it's quite regular that someone goes down." Denyer, who has hosted the rebooted version of the game show since 2024 after its decade-long hiatus, said the phenomenon remains a mystery, but suspects it's related to nerves and pressure. "There's an incredible medical team, and people constantly keep an eye out for early warning signs," he explained. "I don't know whether it's the pressure of the moment, or the heat of the lights, a lot of people get extremely nervous. "It reminded me, you know how people say 'public speaking is everyone's worst fear'? "Well, I think as they're waiting for their turn to be selected, their central nervous system is all enraged, they're sweating, and yeah, we have a lot of fainters." The father of three, who has hosted Family Feud, Million Dollar Minute, Australia's Got Talent, Dancing with the Stars, and Game of Games, mentioned he "didn't expect" the number of fainting incidents on Deal or No Deal. "I've never had it on any other television show," he admitted. "I don't specifically know why it happens on Deal or No Deal more than anything else- it's like a thing." When asked what happens after someone faints, Denyer said the team "quickly extracts" the person and provides "urgent medical attention", before typically picking a replacement from the audience "who looks close enough". The Gold Logie winner also recalled a time when the production team ended up saving someone's life. "So, a gentleman went down and we thought he was just a fainter," Denyer recalled. "We gave him all the appropriate care, then realised, 'Hang on a second, his heart's a little bit arrhythmic here, there's a little bit more going on'." An ambulance was called, and the man was rushed to hospital. Denyer said the outcome could have been tragic had the medical incident not occurred during filming. "He lives by himself in a remote regional community. He would never have made it to hospital himself. So we still get letters from him every month, just saying 'Thank you so much, we wouldn't be alive without you'," Denyer shared. Bucklow quipped: "So not only are you giving people the chance to win money, you're saving their lives." "Mate, some people are changing lives- we're saving them," Denyer replied. He then took a cheeky swipe at comedian Tom Gleeson, host of ABC's Hard Quiz and 10's Taskmaster Australia. "Sucked in Tom Gleeson, you're not doing that. What are you contributing to humanity?" Denyer joked. Interestingly, Gleeson was a regular on Channel 10's The Project, which aired its final episode on Friday amid a sweeping programming shake-up. From this week, Channel 10's evening line-up features 10 News First at 5pm, followed by a new current affairs program 10 News+ hosted by Denham Hitchcock and Amelia Brace from 6pm Sunday to Thursday. Deal or No Deal now airs at 7pm, going head-to-head with ABC News, Nine's A Current Affair, and Seven's Home and Away, which is in its 37th year. To promote the show's new slot, Denyer took to social media on Monday with a tongue-in-cheek warning. "Now if you watch another show at 7pm, that show's dead to you now," he joked. He also teased that Channel 10's "news queen" Sandra Sully would appear in the first episode: "Oh my god, it's a doozey!"
