Chrissie Swan

The third daughter of a bubble-wrap addicted mother and a father who enjoys customising Econovans just for fun, Chrissie Swan first entered Australia's conscious in 2003 as Australia's first female runner-up in Network Ten's 'Big Brother'.

Taking up an opportunity to become a breakfast radio announcer on the Sunshine Coast, Chrissie relocated herself and her coffee machine up to Maroochydore and set her recurring alarm for 4am. Her work as a breakfast radio announcer saw her be nominated for 'Best Newcomer On-Air' at The Australian Commercial Radio Awards' in 2004, and won 'Best On-Air Team' in 2005.

Suffering from severe sookiness - she missed her mum!- Chrissie returned to Melbourne where she spent two years trying to get a word in with Dicko and Dave O'Neill on Vega 91.5's 'Dicko, Dave and Chrissie' breakfast radio show.

In 2010, Chrissie was chosen to join Network Ten's cheerful new morning talk show 'The Circle'. Chrissie very quickly won over a new legion of admirers with her warm, kind and delightful manner. Alongside her three new 'besties', Chrissie has sung with Meatloaf, danced like Beyonce, impersonated a panda, and thought that a roast chicken ought to be named 'Maurice'!

Her work on 'The Circle' saw Chrissie be honoured with three Logie nominations in 2011, including the Golden Logie. Out of the three nominations, she won 'Most Popular New Female Talent'.

A self-confessed pop trivia tragic - she once won $500 for singing every verse of 'The Love Boat' from memory - Chrissie lists good coffee, eBay, her man 'The Chippie', and her two-year old son Leo as her life's passions. She is loving life in the 'burbs and spend her weekends at Bunnings - just like everyone else!

Yumi Stynes

The story of Yumi Stynes is the stuff of legends. One of the two now infamous winners of the Channel [V] music reporter search (along with James Mathison), Yumi went from making ham-and-cheese sandwiches in a Melbourne takeaway......

...to weeks later being snogged by Robbie Williams.

Noted for her meticulous research and great sense of humour, Yumi  has interviewed actors, comedians, directors and musicians all over the world as well as presenting on numerous awards shows. She's in a band herself and has unparalleled access to the Australian and international music scene.

Yumi combines a unique and dynamic sense of individual style with a take-no-prisoners approach to live television, throwing an edgy and progressive range of musical taste into the mix.  After her stint at Channel [V] she moved across to sister channel MAX where she began hosting 'The Know' and has proven herself to be an intelligent and witty presenter who is respected by viewers, co-hosts and musicians alike.

A keen runner, Yumi needs her stamina to balance the year ahead.  With her continued role on MAX plus juggling being a single mum to two beautiful girls, she'll be one of the busiest women in television.
