As one of the country’s best-known interior design experts and a television personality who has been a judge on The Block for 12 years, Shaynna Blaze is a busy woman. But last year, she surprised everyone when she appeared on The Masked Singer. Now she’s ready to pursue her passion for music even further – with an upcoming EP of new songs and a series of cabaret shows in the works.

Shaynna sat down with Sarrah in the Something To Talk About studio for a wide-ranging conversation about why she keeps reinventing herself, how landing her job at The Block was one of the most bizarre moments of her life, her return to music - and why she refuses to act her age.

In the 30 years since Tina Arena stormed the charts with her hit song ‘Chains’, the powerhouse singer has become a vocal force to be reckoned with and one of the most successful Australian artists ever.

On the eve of a tour revisiting the 1994 album that would become a pivotal turning point in her career, Tina sits down with Something To Talk About for a no-holds-barred chat as she reflects on her beginnings as a child star (including the story of how she came to adopt her stage name), explains why she has never been afraid to speak her mind, calls out the “boring” narrative that pits successful women against one another - and reveals the heartbreak of being separated from her teenage son since the pandemic.

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Don’t Ask, Tina Arena will head on tour in November 2024. She has also re-released a remix of Chains with Melbourne duo SHOUSE.
