PRANK GONE WILD Star Breakfast's Rach Takes on Australian Idol

Have you ever pulled a prank on a mate that got them on national television?
Well, that has happened to us on Star Breakfast.
Months ago, I thought it would be hilarious to register Rach as a contestant on Australian Idol.
The idea was simple; tell her she was registered, get her to sing in a public cafe, laugh laugh laugh, dust our hands clean of that.
Then things got interesting.
Out of nowhere, an email hit my inbox, AUSTRALIAN IDOL CASTING. I could not believe my eyes, how had this happened?
Surely they heard her sing? Right?!
Damien Agius from Idol season 1 bestowed his wisdom on Rach before her Zoom audition, she was prepped and ready.
She piped out ‘Let it go’ from Frozen, the producers were laughing but seemed happy with her efforts. We all got a laugh out of it and that's as far as it goes. Right?
Well, wrong again!
October 9th in Sydney, Rach WILL be performing in front of the Australian Idol judges!
Follow the journey 6-9am weekdays on Star Mackay and the Whitsundays, if you've missed anything check out the videos on our socials @starmackay on Instagram and ‘Star 101.9 Mackay’ on Facebook.
