Sonia Kruger gets “death stares” after “jumping the fence” at the Oscars
Sonia Kruger has shared her experience reporting at this year’s biggest showbiz event- the Academy Awards.
In a cheeky video shared to the Sunrise Instagram account, the reporter revealed that she was getting dirty looks from other media outlets who were stuck in the “pig pen” and blocked off from the A-list celebrities.
“You can see that everybody has now been corralled behind what we call in television, I think the technical term for this is pig pen,” the reporter said in her live coverage.
“Now the weird thing is, we have exclusive access to be out here on the carpet so we are getting death stares from these people who are like, 'Why is Australian television allowed on the carpet like this?’” she added.
The Sunrise team also shared their surprise at Kruger’s coup at the prestigious event.
“Sonia Kruger has jumped the fence where the rest of the media is forced to stay,” they stated in the caption.
The reporter landed interviews with various A-list stars including Nicole Kidman, Keith Urban, Baz Luhrmann and Miles Teller.
The 57-year-old rocked the red carpet in a gorgeous sparkly lilac dress and looked half her age.
Although she looked stunning, the TV star chose to report in comfort, rocking a pair of fluffy slippers.
