It Had To Happen Eventually – Rove Finds Love Again

2:20PM Jess McGuire | This just in from The Daily Telegraph – Rove McManus has found love again, beginning a new relationship with Aussie actress Tasma Walton. McManus’s manager and close friend Kevin Whyte today confirmed to the Daily Telegraph McManus was happily in love again with the former Blue Heelers actress. “It’s still early days and we hope people will give them the space they need,” he said in a statement today. It seems somewhat inevitable that gossip columns around the country will be spending the next few weeks (at the very least) drawing comparisons between Tasma Walton and Rove’s late wife, actress Belinda Emmett. Why not start now! The pair have been seen leaving the house together where they have been taking in early morning gym sessions at a gym nearby the lavish Richmond home where he has lived for more than five years and is the home he shared with Emmett. She’s living in Belinda’s house… She has been seen driving the silver Rav 4 cruiser Emmett drove while she was alive while Rove has been driving a matching black Rav 4 cruiser. She’s driving Belinda’s car… In 1997 she took out a Logie for best newcomer over Emmett who was also nominated for Home And Away. And she stole Belinda’s Logie! In all seriousness, it’s nice to hear that Rove has found some happiness again after what must have been an incredible difficult period dealing with not only the loss of his wife, but the frantic media interest in his life both before and after her passing. Countdown to the New Idea/Woman’s Day photo spread starts… now! More »

We’re Not Entirely Sure What This Says About The Australian Music Industry But We Suspect It Isn’t Nearly As Good As The Event Producer For The ARIA Awards Thinks

3:43PM Jess McGuire | Possibly a rather ominous opening sentence to kick off this article from the weekend which ponders the contenders for ARIA award nominations this year. James Packer’s wife Erica Baxter, actor Toni Collette and the late Belinda Emmett are all in the running for an ARIA award nomination this year. Of course, we haven’t heard the full length albums produced by any of the above mentioned ladies, so far be it from us to assume they won’t be startling and passionate works of art which will stand the test of time. Has anyone else? Reviews welcome. More »
