Foxtel today announced the multi-award-winning Gogglebox will once again host a very special celebrity edition for ReachOut Australia with Celebrity Gogglebox Australia set to return for one star-studded evening later this month.
Some of Australia’s most well-known and much-loved personalities become armchair critics as they hit the couch to watch the week’s big shows sharing their insightful, sharp, and often hilarious points of view.
To be announced in coming weeks, the line-up will include Australia’s most celebrated television hosts, comedians, radio presenters and performers. Viewers will get a unique insight into what television shows make them laugh, cry, or scream at their screens and expose any guilty viewing pleasures.
Wendy Moore Group General Manager, Foxtel Lifestyle said: “The first instalment of Celebrity Gogglebox Australia was a great success, and we are excited to bring another stellar line-up of celebrities to the couch on October 25 which we will be announcing soon! Partnering with ReachOut enables us to raise awareness and connect more young people in Australia with their invaluable service.”
Tracey Campbell, Director of Marketing and Fundraising at ReachOut said: “We all know that Celebrity Gogglebox Australia is a lot of fun and the team from ReachOut are thrilled that this year it will be good for your mental health too. Right now, 40% of young people in Australia are experiencing mental health difficulties and more than a million are not seeking professional support.”
