Profile of Livinia Nixon on Famous Like Me

Livinia Helen Nixon (born March 19, 1975) is an Australian television presenter and actor who has worked on a number of programs appearing on the Nine Network.

Nixon appeared in several small roles in telemovies and TV dramas in the mid 1990's, but became much better known after a short gig as the host of children's show "Plucka's Place" in 1998 led to a job as co‑host of the long-running prime-time variety program Hey Hey It's Saturday in 1998‑99.

After the cancellation of the show after its hugely extended run in 1999, Nixon has had a number of presenting and reporting jobs, including being a reporter on the Victorian edition of Postcards, a show about tourist destinations in Victoria, a reporter/sidekick on Micallef Tonight, a tonight show hosted by Shaun Micallef, the host of Bark-off, a sort of game-show for dogs, and most recently as the weather presenter for the Nine Network evening news — a particularly prominent role in Melbourne, as Nine has the top-rating news program and the famously changeable weather is an obsession in that city.

However, the blonde, bubbly and notably smiley Nixon is at the moment best known for her appearances with mayor John So in a tourism promotion campaign for the city of Melbourne entitled "That's Melbourne". The campaign has been successful enough to be spun off into a half-hour television show hosted by Nixon.

Nixon currently appears on nationwide television as co-host of the Temptation game show on Channel 9.

Nixon completed a commerce/law degree and later a course in horticulture at the University of Melbourne and lives in the suburbs of Melbourne.
