Annette Melton Biography


Biography
Annette Melton is a professional presenter and actor from Sydney with over six years experience in TV and stage hosting.

Born and raised on the beach-coast of the Sutherland Shire she quickly established herself as a beautiful and versatile talent. Her career first gained momentum when she was signed by Auto Salon International in a two year deal to be the face and presenter across their tour events in Australia and New Zealand, where she hosted shows in front of thousands of spectators in every major capital city.

This was followed by another two year deal with iconic Aussie brand Chiko Chick as the new face and ambassador, where she travelled nationally for all the brands advertising campaigns, media opportunities, corporate guest appearances, event presentations and filming online programs.

In addition, Annette was also approached to guest present for the Future Music Festival, GotGames TV, The Interzone and online fashion program FACETV.

Her natural talent and photogenic appeal quickly led to regular gigs with PokerNews Australia and later signing up with 888 Poker as their new presenter in the USA (Las Vegas) for the World Series of Poker, The Irish Poker Open in Europe and Melbourne's Aussie Milliions held at the Crown Casino. 

2010 saw Annette transition into cable television (FOXTEL) thanks in part to her reputation as an engaging presenter with model good looks and hard working ethics. Currently she is the main host for Motive TV on Fox Sports, Sydney Dragway Track Championship Series on SPEED channel and is a regular on MotorVision Australia (part of the ninemsn network).

Annette is also an experienced and capable stage MC and has hosted numerous live events in fashion, poker, beauty, food and gaming.

In summer 2010 Australian department store Myer released a limited edition range of T-shirts featuring Annette Melton as the iconic '
Chiko Chick', a first for the retail chain.     

Annette's acting has also flourished in a relatively short period where she has already featured in numerous short films as well as having been cast as the lead in Stan Walker's
Choose You music video (at the time the recent winner of Australian Idol). 

Adding to her work load, 2011 also saw Annette take roles in various TVCs including the lead for the all-new
Holden Barina TV and print campaign. She also shot her third commercial for regional brand Makin Mattresses and was asked by Ministry of Sound to feature in two of their latest TV commercials back-to-back (Maximum Bass Platinum and Running Trax Summer 2012). Channel [V] also asked her to reprise her role in their ongoing sponsored promos for Foot Locker whilst 
Australian Cosmetics Brand Model Co. approached Annette to be their new talent for their 'Fibre Lash' product.

Already named as one of the top twelve models for the 2010 FHM calendar, Annette will be seen again as one of Australia's talented models this time across a seven page feature in Maxim mid-February 2012.

Annette's down to earth charm and sense of humour has always made her a favourite with casting directors and producers. Her work ethics are second to none as she strives to do the very best for the benefit of both the client and her career.

Some of which are continually documented across her social media and in her personal
