Even if the name ‘Samantha Jade’ doesn’t ring a bell, the chances you’ve belted out one of her hit songs in the car is pretty high. Or if you’re more of a TV buff, you might recognise her from playing Kylie Minogue in the INXS mini series.
And now that she’s recently released new single with Pitbull and taken on the role of ambassador for Runway Weekend in Sydney, there’s no denying the 28-year-old is one busy lady. But lucky for us, she managed to find some time to answer a few beauty and health questions…
You look amazing in the film clip for your new single, ‘Shake That’! How do you stay in shape?
Thank you so much! I dance in my shows and try to eat as healthy as I can.
What’s your favourite song to work out to?
‘Not Letting Go’ – Tinie Tempah
And your go-to healthy snack?
I love green apples and acai bowls.
You’ve been in hot demand lately, especially now that you’re the ambassador for Runway Weekend. How do you combat stress?
I love being busy and have always been someone who likes to have lots to do. But I do try to have ‘me time’ and put a candle on, pour myself a tea and just be.
