Melissa Hoyer, The Daily Telegraph, reports
The Ten Network is hoping funny girl Rebel
Wilson will revive this week's disappointing ratings figures, having the
comedian appear in a swag of their live TV offerings next week.
Rebel is heading home to appear in-studio as a special guest on The
Project and later the same night on the Chrissie Swan hosted Can Of
Worms.
The Aussie actress, writer and stand-up comedian will entertain viewers
with her own brand of controversial and straight-talking conversation.
Following her CoW appearance next Monday, the Bridesmaids actress
will front up again on Tuesday, to co-host The Project alongside Carrie
Bickmore, Charlie Pickering and Dave Hughes.
"I'm really excited to come back to Australia and appear on Ten
next week. I'm not sure which tracksuit to pack... Now that I live in Hollywood
I get a lot of free tracksuits. It takes the phrase 'freeloading bogan' to a
completely new level" says the 27-year-old.
"I've been talking with an American accent all week for a pilot
I've been filming in LA, so it'll be super relaxing for my face to come back to
Australia and just be myself for a few days."
Monday night's season debut of Can
of Worms was watched by just 351,000 viewers nationally - crushed by rivals
on Seven and Nine.
Ten's use of Chrissie Swan's smoking confession while pregnant as their
opening topic of conversation - 'have you ever kept a secret from a loved one?'
- seemed not to fare well with audiences.
