He walked away from a colourful broadcasting career seven years ago, but there are some things TV personality Paul Henry can’t resist – and that includes taking part in a reality TV show based on lies, treachery and more lies!
It was announced this week that the 62-year-old is hosting a new Three show called The Traitors, in which Paul will be watching with “devilish delight” as Kiwi contestants backstab each other in the hope of winning a large cash prize.
Based on a Dutch series that premiered late last year, the show has already been turned into a massive hit in the UK, where it’s been streamed more than 34 million times, and Paul says he was in from the moment the New Zealand hosting job was offered to him.
“I love the fact that it pits people against people,” says the star, who these days refers to himself as “a retiree making and consuming gin”.
“In some cases, it pits friends against friends. Lying is one of the most wonderful tools a human being can use. I’ve always enjoyed using lies and now I’m being paid to do it – to supervise the lies of others and encourage the lies of others.”
