Before Aunty Donna got big, you were in a Coles commercial for years. Do people recognise you in the street if you are in a Coles ad?
No one ever did. In fact, when the ad was airing, my face was on the little conveyor belt dividers and I would hold it up next to my face to show the checkout person it was me. I’d say, “Look!” And the poor checkout person would be like, “What? Do you want to buy that?” I think people don’t associate real humans with the people who are in the ads, I think they believe they’re humans made entirely by Coles and Woolworths, particularly if they’re in a big red suit and they’re acting crazy. So, no one ever clocked me, unfortunately.
