JUDGES TO WATCH

-

LUCY HOLMES

You won’t be able to get this Kylie Minogue impersonat­or out of your head! Lucy is one of the best Kylie impersonat­ors in the industry and has even been given the thumbs up by the pop princess herself. When she isn’t performing around the globe, Lucy hosts breakfast radio in Melbourne. “I will bring the fun, energy and positivity that this show is all about,” she says.

MARK GABLE

Rock Legend Mark is best known for fronting The Choirboys, which formed in 1979. They released several hits including “Run to Paradise” and “Boys Will Be Boys” and continue to tour to this day. Mark has also carved out a career in radio, hosting shows on 2GO and Vega. When it comes to his judging style, Mark says he will be “ironic, wise and crazy”.

JASON JACKSON

Jason was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer at 18 months old and spent the next seven years in hospital. It was during this time he developed a love of Michael Jackson’s music. Performing as his hero is a dream come true for Jason and he even smashed the Guinness World Record for the fastest 100-metre moonwalk in 2010. He claims that he will stand out from the 100 because he is an extrovert and will be, “an outspoken judge that will speak from the heart”.

LARA MULCAHY

The award-winning actress and entertaine­r is well known for her larger than life personalit­y. She shot to stardom after starring as Rosie in the original Australian cast of Mamma Mia, alongside her pal Rhonda Burchmore. While we don’t know who she will stand up for, Laura’s favourite singers are, “Bette Midler for her talent, humour and staying power. And Barbra Streisand. Legend!”
