More about Osher Gunsberg:
You don’t become one of Australia’s most love celebrities overnight. From his work on Channel [V] in the early 2000’s to seven seasons on Australian Idol, Osher was the first Australian to host live network prime time TV in the USA on CBS’ Live To Dance.
Osher commenced his radio career in 1994 at Brisbane’s B105 on the overnight shift, and rapidly moved to a national audience with Take 40 Australia and The Hot Hits Live from LA. From 2016 – 2017 Osher was part of Hit105’s Stav, Abby & Matt with Osher breakfast show for Southern Cross Austereo, and Osher’s Love Line nationally on the HIT Network.
Returning to television screens, Osher took on roles hosting Network Ten’s The Bachelor, The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise.
In 2018, Osher published his memoir, Back, After the Break, which openly reveals his powerful, dark, funny and heart wrenching personal story. Soon after its release, he began producing a live show based on the memoir while at the same time, speaking to audiences about his experiences.
A man of his word, Osher said he would never take his shirt off unless it was on the cover of Men’s Health Australia. In August 2018, he did just that – appearing on the cover of Men’s Health Transformation.
