Aussie Hip Hop Star Bindi Irwin Excitedly Talks About Her Exciting 10th Birthday Celebrations: “I’m Very Excited!”

Rap star, Logie winner, fashion icon, and queen of Australian tourism Ms Bindi Irwin has, on the eve of her 10th birthday, been interviewed by The Courier-Mail – and boy, is she excited about turning double digits!

Using the words “I’m very excited” at least 12 times in as many minutes, she said: “Our tradition is that birthdays are not just for yourself but for sharing.

“Every birthday is very exciting – you wake up in the morning so excited because everyone is coming. It’s so exciting I can’t wait. Double digits means double the fun which is so exciting.”

Uh-huh. Exciting stuff!

I also quite enjoyed her views on her simple living brother Bob-Bob.

(Bindi) said she preferred to focus on the good things in the world and believed in the simple philosophy often demonstrated by her younger brother, Robert, 4, who liked to live in the moment.

“Robert has a great approach to life,” she said.

“He lives one day at a time and doesn’t worry about what will happen in the future. He just likes to play with his chickens and revels in the moment which is happening . . . which is a good way to be.

An uncomplicated four year old – I’ll be damned! I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again – Robert “Bob Bob” Irwin is my great hope for the future of not only Australia Zoo, but Australia itself. Although the way Bindi’s taken to describing him in this interview, I can’t help but suspect we might lose him for a couple of years to the Nimbin massive as he explores the appeal of certain herbs and tries his hand at African drumming.
