As we know, television can often show a different reality from what goes on behind the scenes. And every now and then, our favourite on-screen rivals reveal unexpected camaraderie, leaving us surprised and amused.
Recently, Channel 7 Sunrise star Natalie Barr and her breakfast TV competitor, Karl Stefanovic from Channel 9's Today Show, found themselves face to face during a radio appearance on Nova's Ricki-Lee, Tim and Joel show. As Karl was filling in for Joel Creasey that day, the audience was in for a thrilling shock when Natalie appeared as a guest.
The two TV anchors faced off in a game of Quick Draw, trying to outdo each other with witty remarks. 'What's your name again?' Nat playfully quipped, as Karl responded, 'It's not easy looking at each other and being such fierce competitors. Look at the daggers.'
However, the jocular tone took a serious turn when Nat addressed the rumours of a 'TV war' between them. She assured the audience that the two actually don't mind each other in real life, putting an end to speculations. Despite the light-hearted ribbing, there's a hint of respect and admiration among the competitors.
That being said, the conversation soon led to some juicy details of life at Sunrise. Tim Blackwell brought up a 2011 video of the Sunrise crew performing the Black Eyed Peas' hit song 'Where is the Love?', leaving the show's host Ricki-Lee Coulter in disbelief. Natalie laughed and revealed that the embarrassing video is the main reason she has turned down invitations to join Dancing With the Stars.
In response to Ricki-Lee's curiosity about the harder aspects female TV hosts face, Nat delved into her own experience: 'Well, I get up at 2.45 am. I’m there at 3.30,' she shared, leaving the men on air shocked. Furthermore, she detailed her hour-long hair and makeup routine that starts at 4.10 am and discussed the challenges of selecting outfits for the show.
The rapport between the competing TV anchors and the glimpse behind the curtain has provided a fresh appreciation for our favourite morning TV personalities. The fun banter and candid revelations give us a chance to see the human side of these stars and the realities they face before entertaining us each morning.
