'MY LIFE'S PURE MAGIC!'

WITH HER DREAM JOB AND PERFECT MAN, THE STAR HAS PLENTY OF REASONS TO SMILE

- Kylie Walters

This time last year, life wasn't anywhere near as carefree and relaxed as it is now for Aussie singer Jessica Mauboy. As a newbie coach on the set of The Voice Australia alongside veteran stars Keith Urban, Rita Ora, and Guy Sebastian, the musician readily admits she was a bundle of nerves.

"When I started working on this show, I was way outside of my comfort zone. I was terrified," the 32-year-old performer and reality star admitted to WHO last August. But fast-forward 12 months and the hitmaker has definitely got her groove back. "The second time around I am much more confident," she tells us in a chat from the set during a filming break. "I am more across the rules and how to help my singers bring out the best in themselves, which is what it's really all about."

The ARIA winner's relationship with her mega-talented superstar fellow coaches has also changed along the way.
