Its the unlikely alliance between politics and show business that has moved from the small screen and on to the stage. The partnership between pop superstars the Veronicas and Sydney Indigenous figure Yvonne Weldon continued on Friday during a packed concert at the Hordern Pavilion on Friday 18th June 2021. Yvonne performed the Welcome to Country at the Sydney leg of the Veronica’s GODZILLA V HUMAN tour, continuing a friendship that begun when they met earlier this year while filming the Celebrity Apprentice.
Jess and Lisa Origliasso - the multi-platinum selling Australian duo -endorsed Yvonne’s Mayoral challenge in an Instagram post after the show.
Thank you to Wiradjuri Woman @Yvonne Weldon for the connecting and moving welcome to country before our show last night. Always was always will be aboriginal land… Australia needs Yvonne’s wisdom, passion and heart at the centre of policies & decisions made for the Australian people
Yvonne is running against long-term incumbent Clover Moore in the City of Sydney Elections on September 4th 2021.
