Tania Lacy
Once the ‘enfant terrible’ of Aussie TV, Tania Lacy soon became ‘enfant unemployable’ for being too mouthy. Fortunately for Tania, women are quite ‘in’ right now and so she’s decided she can be ‘enfant anything she f*cking wants’. Tania Lacy’s career has been one big adventure. After attending the prestigious Victorian College of the Arts School of Dance she choreographed and danced with Kylie Minogue - by the way, that’s her in the Locomotion clip. After being spotted on pop show (and Aussie TV institution) ‘Countdown’ the producer asked her to audition for a new show. That show was 'The Factory' and it made her a household name. Then came Countdown Revolution with Mark Little, award winning short films, stand-up, she’s an actor, written for film and television and has two novels on the shelves.
