Melissa George's Strange Meltdown

There has been lots of chatter about local actress made good Melissa George and her meltdown on the Seven Network's Morning Show last week when host Larry Emdur mentioned her beginnings in the soapie Home and Away.

Melissa launched into a tirade at Larry and co-host Kylie Gillies who are hardly the most threatening talking heads on the teeve and whose questioning has been likened to being lashed with a limp lettuce leaf.

"I don't need credibility from my country any more, I just need them all to be quiet," she said. "If they have nothing intelligent to say, please don't speak to me any more. I'd rather be having a croissant and an espresso in Paris or walking my French bulldog in New York City.
"I've never spoken out about it because I have to be the loyal good Aussie, who goes away and comes home. 

Shurely shome mistake as the British satirical magazine Private Eye would say. On Saturday night our Melissa was interviewed on the top Brit chat show The Jonathon Ross Show which was screened on the ABC at 9.30PM.

As can be see on the clip below Melissa was more than happy to chat to host Ross about her role as Angel Parrish in Home and Away while plugging her hit TV show Hunted. She even took Jonathan Ross roller skating   These thespians, such temperamental creatures !.

Melissa Shines At The Baftas

Wearing a figure hugging Victoria Beckham gown, Australian actress Melissa George looked radiant at last night's British Academy of Arts, Film & Television awards in London.

She may still be only finding roles in less than A grade films, but one television series in which she appears regularly that has been overlooked in this country is In Treatment,  a series with Gabriel Byrne as a psychotherapist who despite analysing a series of patients, begins to question his abilities. Well worth getting the entire series on DVD and watching over a long weekend.
