The Block Showbiz and Celebrity Breaking News

But all that could change once Channel Seven-backed Dream Home begins airing sometime in 2024.

Die-hard fans are not loving the incessant drama going down at the Charming Street worksite. In particular the “school yard cliqueness” of Leah and Kristy is ruffling feathers.

Neale has been a mainstay on The Block since season three.

Leah and Ash felt that something was off, so they called a body corporate meeting to ask why Nick was helping without being paid or inducted as per the rules.

It all started when Kristy asked competitor Steph how much she paid for a bedhead she and her husband Gian had purchased for the House Decider Challenge.

This year, our cast of rookie renovators includes couples Gian and Steph, Kyle and Leslie, Kristy and Brett, Ash and Leah, and sisters Liberty and Eliza.

As part of Carly's 'grill squad', Eliza was seen interrogating Carly's groom Justin Fischer on season five of the smash hit reality show.

Eliza became great mates with Hamish, 41, when she began working for him and his radio partner, Andy Lee.

In 2022, the Channel Nine network purchased five classic 50s-style brick homes on Charming Street, Hampton East, Melbourne for a total sum of $14.3 million.

Located just 90 minutes north of the Melbourne CBD, Daylesford is well known for its mineral springs, spas, and delicious gourmet cuisine, and is a popular weekend destination.

"I share my toothbrush with Tom," she admitted.

Speaking with Yahoo Lifestyle, an "insider" revealed that producers of the ratings hit were "scrambling" to find someone who would be able to fill Scotty's shoes. 

The baby news comes 11 months on from the birth of her first child Alfie who also took part in his parent's pregnancy announcement in an adorable way. 

“Let me ask you this…” Rachel poses to Sarah-Jane. 

And whilst no details relating to the new season of the hit reality show have been released by Channel Nine, we’ve been given the inside scoop in real time thanks to a Facebook page run by a resident of Charming Street itself!

After their stint on The Block in 2015, the couple collected a cool $655,000 from the sale of their luxury penthouse in South Yarra, Victoria, which they renovated on the show. 

The couple made the exciting announcement via Instagram, sharing a sweet video of the bub. 

Jenny's hens' party, which was held in Queensland, was seemingly attended by every other female contestant of this year's season of The Block - except Sharron. 

The team clashed with foreman Dan last week when he accused them of trying to “cover up” poor workmanship in their mudroom.

According to our spies, Tanya and Vito arrived on the set with Mitch and Mark to give the contestants some feedback on their completed rooms. 

Fans of the show will know there’s never a dull moment whenever he is around, so it comes as no surprise that it doesn’t take long for the 46-year-old to uncover a secret which leaves the contestants furious.

But it appears the couple might let their insecurities – or their competitiveness – get the better of them, as accusations are flying that they’re cheating! 

This week, the year’s first major feud kicks off, and it’s Blockhead Sharon who has some choice words for Shaynna, after the interior design expert criticised her and husband Ankur’s very modern bathroom.

Mitch Edwards and Mark McKie, the Bondi couple from Season 19 of The Block are returning to the new ‘Fans v Faves’ season of the show and they have one request, nay, demand – ‘Stop referring to us as the gay granddads’.“We were described continuously last season as the ‘gay granddads’… we were never the couple who have a family,” Mitch told Star Observer, pointing out that the term was a “double whammy”, that focussed on their sexuality as well as their age. Mitch and Mark spoke to Star Observer

If you’ve never heard the work of Toronto-based OBUXUM before, the Somali-Canadian producer herself would describe it as a narrative journey that requires active listening. Part industrial synths and part smoothed-out electro R&B, her genre-defying music is as diverse as it is richly political.

When it comes to Black music in Canada, the focus remains heavily on Toronto as home to some of the biggest artists in the world. But, with Black music history all over the country, there are a number of artists working on shifting the musical focus to Western Canada.

While it’s hard to deny the dominance of Black music across airwaves and streaming services around the world, it wasn’t long ago that many genres had a tough time gaining a foothold in Canada. With storied histories across the country in genres like soul, reggae, and hip-hop, putting them on the deserved stages proved difficult beyond niche platforms.

The WA couple won Sunday’s room reveal for their fun, jungle-inspired bedroom, but within hours received a barrage of criticism from viewers – and later from Shaynna.

With pandemic restrictions causing changes to the way the season will end (no open inspections, for one), the Channel Nine show will no doubt resemble a very different finale this year.

Tash, 32, had already forewarned that things became heated throughout their time on the strenuous renovation show.
