If the rumours are true, pop star sisters turned reality stars, The Veronicas are set to host the upcoming season of The Voice Australia.
WATCH the moment The Veronicas are escorted off a Qantas flight
A source has revealed to New Idea magazine that, following Sonia Kruger’s shock departure from Nine, twins Lisa and Jess Origliasso are in-line for the hosting gig.
“They want to mix it up with younger hosts,” the source told New Idea.
However, one person who might not be too thrilled with the twins’ new role is Delta Goodrem. The coach may potentially see the young hosts as possible spotlight stealers.
Meanwhile, The Veronicas have already been in the headlines recently over an on-board incident that saw them booted off a domestic flight. But the source says this incident only strengthened their appeal with the network.
“They love the recent Qantas headlines, plus the ‘twin factor’ for publicity,” the source adds.
At the time of the incident, Qantas stated that two passengers refused to follow the cabin crew’s instructions and were “offloaded” before the plane took off, with a fellow passenger telling Queensland’s Courier Mail that the singers “refused to follow crew instructions”.
However Jess and Lisa vehemently denied the allegations.
Replying to an Instagram post about the incident, the girls wrote, “We actually already had our bag up in the overhead. The female flight attendant wanted Lisa’s bag spun around. Lisa asked the attendant if she could help assist her, because she couldn’t reach it (we’re only 5″1). The attendant said it was against company policy. And a lovely man behind us helped instead.”
The girls continued: “Then right before take off, the flight attendant bought over the manager and pointed us out. He proceeded to lecture us about company policy. We listened and asked for their names, and they refused to give us their names and announced they were going to call security on us. We had no idea why. That’s when we started filming.”
