It Happens to be Another Garrett

It happens to be another Garrett
August 16, 2005
SHE'S got the lanky frame, the trademark big mouth and a shared passion for music, but Maude Garrett is aiming for a career on TV, not on the stage.The 19-year-old niece of former Midnight Oil frontman Peter Garrett beat thousands of aspiring music TV show hosts to become one of Channel V's four "Fresh Meat" finalists.
Junior-burger Garrett now joins Alex Cameron, Stephen Bourke and Gabrielle Scawthorn in vying for the coveted full-time presenting gig on the Foxtel music channel.
"I've got a soft spot for Australian rock because I've grown up with it, and I've always loved the spotlight, so this is just surreal, a dream," the Bribane teenager said.
Australian Idol host and "VJ" James Mathison took out the inaugural fresh meat competition with Yumi Stynes in 2000.
