About this episode

Tina Arena discusses her life in the spotlight, the costs of fame, and her new documentary.

She has ridden the waves of popularity and retreat – and has the accolades, and the battle scars, to prove it. Now, as she prepares to unveil her new documentary Tina Arena: Unravel Me , the Australian music icon joins Something To Talk About to discuss her extraordinary life, one she has lived almost entirely in the spotlight since childhood. On today’s episode, she reflects on the hidden costs of fame, identity crises, learning to speak up for herself, and the joy she feels at having her son at home again.
