The Project: Sept 18 – 23

This week on The Project: John Legend, Hillary & Chelse Clinton, Melanie C., Tom Grennan, Joel Madden & Robbie Williams.

We catch up with multi-platinum, 12-time Grammy Award-winner John Legend on Sunday, to chat about the release of his eighth studio album, Legend, an epic double album exploring the themes of a sensual Saturday night, while the second album evokes the vibes of Sunday morning. John’s standout performance at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards earlier this week had fans wanting more. Susie Youssef speaks to John about his celebrated career as he and partner Chrissy Tiegen prepare to welcome their third child.

Also on Sunday, Lisa chats to two of the most influential women in America, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Following the success of their best-selling book, The Book Of Gutsy Women, comes Gutsy, the highly anticipated eight-part documentary event following Hillary Rodham Clinton and Chelsea Clinton as they celebrate the gutsy women who inspire them. They speak with pioneering women artists, activists, community leaders and everyday heroes who show us what it truly means to be gutsy. Gutsy is now available to stream on Apple TV+.

On Monday, as the world prepares to farewell Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, The Project will bring you all the latest from London.

On Tuesday, Carrie sits down with Melanie Chisholm, otherwise known as Mel C, aka Sporty Spice, from one of the biggest girl groups of all time, The Spice Girls. Their music was the soundtrack to the 90s as the group introduced girl power to the world. After 25 incredible years in the spotlight, Mel tells her amazing life story in her own words, giving a full and honest account of what life was really like in The Spice Girls with the release of her first book, Who I am. Carrie meets Mel at her home in London for this open and frank interview.

British singer Tom Grennan is our special guest on Wednesday when he joins us in the studio to chat about his first ever Australian tour. Having completed a sold-out tour of the UK last year along with three UK chart-topping singles including his international bona-fide hit Little Bit of Love, By Your Side and the number one trending song Let’s Go Home Together with Ella Henderson, there’s no doubt Tom’s star is on the rise. Now, it’s Australia’s turn to fall in love with this talented musician.

On Thursday in a TV first, pop legend Robbie Williams joins us at the desk for a very special chat. It’s been a big year for our favourite Brit who filmed his big budget biopic, Better Man, earlier this year in Melbourne. His latest album, XXV, featuring many of his greatest hits and fan favourites, all re-recorded and newly orchestrated with the Metropole Orkest, has just been released. We catch up with Robbie ahead of his performance at the AFL Grand Final on Saturday.

6:30pm Sunday – Friday on 10.
