They say Australians work too hard in relation to the rest of the world. I'd say it's true of these over-achievers and I can think of many more. But on their pay packets it's hard to be too sympathetic...
1. Dannii Minogue - Previously shadow-dwelling Danni has finally been given some opportunities and she's taking every one. Whilst being pregnant and having her first child she has also managed to co-write a book, design her Project D fashion label, judge/mentor on British X-Factor and judge on Australia's Got Talent. The Minogue work ethic has always been an inspiration. No-one can stop Kylie either. Carol and Ron must have been hard task masters.
2. Grant Denyer- As well as travelling around Australia, getting up at the crack of dawn to do the weather every morning on Sunrise, he also hosts The Iron Chef (did that get axed though?), races cars, has a baby on the way and channel 7 whack him in anywhere whenever anyone else needs some time off. They always give him those one-off hosting gigs like Carols in the Domain.
3. Charlie Pickering - He co-hosts The 7pm Project live five nights a week, is a teamster on Talking About your Generation, goes to Afghanistan to investigate and has a new book out. He has even found the time to get his tonsils out this week. Enjoy that compulsory bed-rest!
4. Andrew O'Keefe - Hasn't seemed to have missed an episode of Deal or No Deal in 15 years, plus does Weekend Sunrise live both Saturday and Sunday, puts up with Samantha Armitage and does charity work for the White Ribbon Foundation. I saw him in a live theatre sports show once too. He must have had an idle afternoon to fill.
5. Kyle Sandilands - Love him or hate him, but as a worker you'd rate him. From hosting his radio show ( apparently from a secluded booth in his LA mansion), to hosting/mentoring on Australia's Got Talent and being a producer and scandal maker, it seems Kyle was left with no time left for lovely Tamara.
