'I have everything I ever wished for'

BIG BROTHER: SONIA KRUGER

As a veteran of the industry, there's not much that can surprise Sonia Kruger. But on this year's Big Brother: House of Love, the 58-year-old admits she was caught a little off guard. "This particular season, I'm in the room for the evictions," she explains to WHO. "And Big Brother confiscates the contestants' clothes before an eviction, so I don't know who was more freaked out about that them or me!"

Donning "very small" swimsuits and speedos, the TV host insists the result was "just disturbing". "The boys, because they're self-conscious, they're sitting there with cushions on their lap so they actually look like they are naked," Kruger jokes. "It's hard to concentrate on the questions that I'm trying to get out when I feel like I'm overdressed for the occasion."

With a slew of hosting gigs to her name and the coveted Gold Logie Award - which she took out in July - sitting pretty in her Sydney home, the star says she's very content with her career. "I've just been really lucky to be given the opportunity to host some great programs that are big, global formats," she says. "I feel like I have everything I ever wished for and for that I'll be forever grateful."

It's been a very busy year for you! Have you come up for air at all?

I have, yes. Most of what I shoot seems to happen in the first part of the year now, which is good. And then we had the Logies, which was kind of end of July. So post-that, I'm not shooting anything at the moment. It's actually been quite cruisy... don't tell on me!
