TV presenter drops F-bomb in front of Anthony Albanese

<p><em>The Cheap Seats</em> co-host Melanie Bracewell found herself in an awkward predicament when she accidentally dropped the F-bomb during a live interview with Anthony Albanese. </p> <p>The prime minister joined the show as a special guest on Monday to discuss the Voice to Parliament and G20 Summit.</p> <p>Bracewell, who is from New Zealand, was caught-off guard when her microphone pack unexpectedly slipped off, creating a loud bang. </p> <p>“Sorry, sorry, f***," the host promptly apologised for the mishap. </p> <p>Albanese and the audience burst into laughter as Bracewell fumbled over herself, and co-host Tim McDonald covered his face.</p> <p>“I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” she said.</p> <p>“I didn’t mean to swear in front of you, that’s embarrassing.”</p> <p>McDonald then handed over his co-host's fake citizenship papers to the prime minister and quipped, “feel free to write ‘denied’ on that now”.</p> <p>An amused Albanese played along, and proceeded to flip the page and draw a straight line through the papers. </p> <p>“Good call,” McDonald said.</p> <p>“If we denied Australian citizenship (to people) who said that word, we’d really struggle,” the prime minister quipped.</p> <p>“We’d really have a skills crisis."</p> <p><em>Image: Ten News</em></p> <p> </p>

The internet is baffled by who this star is – do you know?

<p>A star has appeared on the September cover of <em style="font-weight: inherit;">InStyle </em>magazine, but fans have criticised the photoshoot for making her almost unrecognisable.</p> <p>Despite working in the film and TV industry since the '70s, fans had a hard time identifying the 61-year-old actress.</p> <p>Do you recognise who it is?</p> <blockquote style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/BmQt07_AeNc/?utm_source=ig_embed" data-instgrm-version="9"> <div style="padding: 8px;"> <div style="background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 62.5% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;"> <div style="background: url(data:image/png; base64,ivborw0kggoaaaansuheugaaacwaaaascamaaaapwqozaaaabgdbtueaalgpc/xhbqaaaafzukdcak7ohokaaaamuexurczmzpf399fx1+bm5mzy9amaaadisurbvdjlvzxbesmgces5/p8/t9furvcrmu73jwlzosgsiizurcjo/ad+eqjjb4hv8bft+idpqocx1wjosbfhh2xssxeiyn3uli/6mnree07uiwjev8ueowds88ly97kqytlijkktuybbruayvh5wohixmpi5we58ek028czwyuqdlkpg1bkb4nnm+veanfhqn1k4+gpt6ugqcvu2h2ovuif/gwufyy8owepdyzsa3avcqpvovvzzz2vtnn2wu8qzvjddeto90gsy9mvlqtgysy231mxry6i2ggqjrty0l8fxcxfcbbhwrsyyaaaaaelftksuqmcc); display: block; height: 44px; margin: 0 auto -44px; position: relative; top: -22px; width: 44px;"></div> </div> <p style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;"><a style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;" rel="noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BmQt07_AeNc/?utm_source=ig_embed" target="_blank">A post shared by Laura Brown (@laurabrown99)</a> on Aug 9, 2018 at 7:17am PDT</p> </div> </blockquote> <p>The actress appearing in this shoot is none other than <em style="font-weight: inherit;">Working Girl </em>star Melanie Griffith.</p> <p>The photoshoot, where Griffith dons a black dress with a plunging neckline, has been slammed by fans for the heavy use of editing.</p> <p>“Unrecognisable. Poor thing,” one wrote.</p> <p>“Um who is this person??” asked another.</p> <p>Another added: “Celebrating the same destructive message … ageing is bad. Of course she looks beautiful, but who is she? She’s certainly not Melanie anymore.”</p> <p>Some were confused if the obvious changes to her appearance were the result of plastic surgery or the use of Photoshop.</p> <p>“This is simply outrageous how much Photoshop was used. Is there something wrong with looking older? Who will believe that her boobs and neckline look like she’s 20? A horrible thing,” a user responded to <em style="font-weight: inherit;">InStyle</em>’s post.</p> <p>“There’s a lot of Photoshop happening in there!

I don't mean it badly, and I don't mean it like, 'Oh, poor me,' or anything like that. It's just a different deal when you're an older person. It's different from being the hot stuff to being the old hot stuff."</p> <p>She revealed that she is planning on pursuing theatre work to avoid the cameras.</p> <p>"That's my dream. I think that theatre is kinder on a 60-year-old face," she said.</p> <p>The star admitted to having plastic surgery 20 years ago, but tried to reverse the work after she received online criticism.</p> <p>“No, I didn’t [realise] until people started saying, ‘Oh my God, what has she done?!’ I was so hurt,” she told <em style="font-weight: inherit;">Porter </em>magazine in 2017.</p> <p>“I went to a different doctor, and he started dissolving all of this s*** that this other woman doctor had put in.</p> <p>“Hopefully, I look more normal now.”</p>

Movies

Can you guess who this Hollywood star is?

<p>She used to be one of the most sought-after actresses in Hollywood, but these days, Melanie Griffith is almost unrecognisable. New photos taken of the 60-year-old star arriving at a LA restaurant have sparked speculation that she’s undergone more plastic surgery.</p> <p><img width="500" height="760" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/44993/image__500x760.jpg" alt="Image_ (37)" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"/></p> <p>Griffith hasn’t been shy when it comes to her struggles with sobriety and cosmetic surgery. In a new interview with <em>People</em> magazine, the star said she was “a totally functioning mum” despite her substance abuse issues.</p> <p>“I wasn’t like a drunk-on-the-floor, out-of-it person,” she said. “I didn’t do some things I probably should have done but, mostly, I was there for my kids. They had a sort of privileged gypsy life.”</p> <p>Griffith first entered rehab for an alcohol and cocaine addiction back in 1988 and most recently returned in 2009.</p> <p>Sadly, her addiction didn’t stop at drugs and alcohol – it even extended to plastic surgery. “I didn’t [realise how drastic the change was] until people started saying, ‘Oh my god, what has she done?!’” Griffith told <em>Porter</em> magazine.</p> <p>“I was so hurt I went to a different doctor and he started dissolving all of this sh** that this other woman doctor had put in. Hopefully, I look more normal now.”</p> <p>What do you think of Melanie Griffith's new look? Tell us in the comments below. </p>
