GP Chats to Rob Mills!

We caught up with Young Talent Time host, Rob Mills about the show, music and the upcoming YTT tour which starts on June 30! Check it out…

GP: What’s a typical day on set for you like?

Rob: We go through a run-through and rehearsal. Then we have a final check of the script and make sure that it’s ready to go. I give the kids a bit of a pep-talk and then do the show and try not to stuff up my lines!

GP: What has been your favourite performance so far?

Rob: I liked the Michael Jackson night when all the kids did ‘Thriller’ and also ‘Can You Feel It’, I really loved that performance. It was really high energy and came out awesome. The kids looked like they were having so much fun.

GP: Have you had any embarrassing moments on set?

Rob: Yes, I once called Serena, Tia instead. I was chatting with Tia in the next segment of the show and I was just thinking ahead. So during the show I said Tia’s name a few times when I wasn’t meant to and when I was meant to, I called her Lyndall! The audience just laughed at me!

GP: What are you currently listening to on your iPod?

Rob: The latest album that I’ve been listening to is ‘El Camino’ by The Black Keys. It’s pretty awesome. I’m actually going to their show when they come down here!

GP: Do you have any guilty pleasures on your iPod?

Rob: I love musical theatre! One of my favourites is the musical, ‘The Last Five Years’. I really love it and I’ve also been listening to a lot of ‘Legally Blonde: The Musical’ lately. I’m going to be in that show later in the year, so I’m really getting into it.

GP: What do you do in your spare time?

Rob: I like to run and go to the gym. I like to play guitar and play my Xbox! I’ve been playing ‘Call of Duty’ a lot. It’s so addictive! I finished the game and then I started playing it again! I also like movies, going to the theatre or watching television shows!

GP: YTT has a tour coming up, what can fans expect?

Rob: It’s going to be the kids’ favourite songs that they have performed. We are going to have the Li’l Bandits crew come with us. They are really excited, I know that! It’s going to be just like the show but we’re going to mix it up a bit! So you might see Sean play a bit more guitar, Adrien playing drums and Tia playing piano. You get to see how extraordinary talented these kids are. I get to see it every week, but with the tour, you get to see it live.
