She’s worked with countless stars during her more than 20 years on Aussie TV, but Sonia Kruger admits it was quite surreal working with Keith Urban on this year’s season of reality singing competition The Voice.
“I remember standing on stage one night and even though I’ve presented a lot of shows over the years, I still get nervous at times,” she tells WHO. “And I was trying to say something and I got it completely wrong. It all went really silent in the room, and I felt all the blood coming up to my face. And Keith just looked at me and said, ‘You got this, Sonia.’ And at that moment, I was just so jealous of Nicole Kidman!”
After the busy year she’s had and with another show almost done and dusted, the 56-year-old should be putting her feet up and enjoying a well-deserved break. Instead, she’s set to host Big Brother VIP, which she says is going to be another one to watch. Here, she talks The Voice top four and why she just can’t pick a winner …
The Voice grand final is upon us! Do you ever get a bit sad to see the show end?
I do, I do. Because by the time you get to the grand final, you can’t help but bond with all four of those finalists. You want all of them to win. In a way, they all kind of do because they’re all having an incredible moment where they not only perform solo but they get to perform with their coach. And that is such a once in a lifetime experience!
