Sunrise host Matt Shirvington hints he will strip down for Telethon fundraiser with Natalie Barr: ‘I can guarantee it will be fun to watch’
Sunrise host Matt Shirvington has hinted he plans to strip down to his knickers to raise money for a Telethon fundraiser.
The host, 44, said Perth Nov viewers would not be disappointed with his performance.
“I’ll be wearing a very large button-down shirt.” It’s not full exposure,” he said.
“You’ll have to wait and see.” I think it will be a good show. I can’t guarantee my singing skills, but I can guarantee it will be fun to watch.’
Matt is set to join a star-studded line-up, including co-host Natalie Barr, in a 26-hour Channel Seven TV marathon to raise money for VA Sick Children.

Last year, Seven’s celebrities managed to raise a record $71,356,721 in fundraising.
It comes after Matt recently opened up about the challenges of his new role as co-host of Sunrise.
He revealed his son cried when he was unable to attend the school’s Father’s Day breakfast last month due to new opening hours.
“We have our challenges. We have our hard days. We have good days,” Matt said TV Tonight.
“Some days you’d love to be at the Father’s Day breakfast, and you don’t get a chance to be there.”
The presenter told Perth News on Friday that viewers will not be disappointed with his performance
“It’s hard, it’s heartbreaking when your child is crying in the back seat of the car, saying ‘I wish you were here, Dad.’
Matt was crowned David Koch’s successor at Sunrise in June after a three-year plan to prepare him for the top job.
Natalie, who co-hosts the morning show with the Olympic sprinter, said she had known him for years as they would ‘see each other at events and always hit it off’.
“He’s the type of guy who just fits in. He’s a really nice, normal guy with his dad’s sense of humor,” she said.
