VW Golf R

Posted by Annette Melton on Monday Aug 9, 2010

Being a ninemsn presenter certainly has its perks. From covering the best car shows in the country to filming cool new video programs and attending multiple media launches.

My latest expedition allowed me to test the all new VW Golf R on a closed track out at Camden Airport. Being a fan of the previous GTi model, I was very keen to get a feel for the new Golf R.

Not one to own a full race suit just yet, I made do with a pair of Denim and Thread jeans, a warm Lonsdale jacket and trusty helmet to match.

After a few warm-up laps I was soon pushing the G-force down the straight and at breaking points. The ABS brakes seemed pretty solid which is always reassuring specially when you do speeds you know you shouldn’t be doing. And the engine really has the grunt to keep you excited all the way. Personally, I found the all-wheel drive and the transmission to be quite smooth as well specially when entering and exiting corners.

Overall? I liked it.

Matt Damon

Posted by Annette Melton on Tuesday Jul 13, 2010

Being extremely fortunate I was given an opportune moment to briefly chat with Matt Damon before he commenced play in the Ante Up for Africa charity tournament. Already being a fan of his performance and after watching Invictus on the plane ride over to the US, I was all the more eager to chat to the very talented actor. I impose very as personally I find a South African accent is very hard to pull off convincingly if it’s not your native tongue. Especially whilst concentrating on the art of acting. So here is the brief moment I was able to indulge in of his very humble persona before his snappy pr lady got her whip cracking. Hence the abrupt cut and sign off at the end. Enjoy.

Galanni

Posted by Annette Melton on Friday Jul 2, 2010

For those of you who keep asking what dress label I’m wearing in my 888 Behind the Scenes videos …well it’s a Australian boutique designer label called Galanni.

Galanni hand make all their garments and like to keep that boutique feel by only stocking in few stores as well as their newly opened flagship store in Sydney’s Fouveux street.

The dresses are very sexy and flattering which is perfect for the style I wanted whilst filming in Las Vegas. Being a fan of Galanni for three years now, I was more than happy to partner up with the label.

If you see any dress you like in my videos that you might like to seek out for yourself seen in my blogs or pictures please feel free to contact Galanni on their website, facebook or just pop in and see them over the weekend.

Here is a link to my ‘Welcome’ video and some pics so far whilst I report in Las Vegas for 888 Behind the Scenes
