Nelson Aspen is one of Entertainment's most charming personalities but there's a lot more to this industry insider than A-list contacts and masterful storytelling ability.

Nelson is a fixture on Australia's #1 breakfast show "Sunrise" as their Show Business Editor and has been on the show for 17 years... bringing the latest in entertainment and pop culture to millions of viewers around the world, every morning! His bi-coastal status, bouncing between Tinseltown and Manhattan, gains him access to the hottest stars and scoops. One day he's on the red carpet chatting with Chris Hemsworth...the next he's sitting down for exclusive conversations with Meryl Streep or Lizzo!

In addition to his successful presenting work, Nelson writes for several international publications and privately coaches celebrities and other media professionals for interviews and public speaking appearances. Nelson is a frequent emcee, speaker & panel moderator for star-studded events such as film festivals, awards presentations and book launches Outside of the entertainment industry, Nelson is an avid sportsman, novelist and cabaret performer.

Over the years Nelson has released many best-selling books. His latest book, "My Prime Time," came out to coincide with his return to the musical theatre stage at the Adelaide Cabaret Festival & Sydney Opera House. With over 30 years experience on the cabaret circuit, Nelson’s passion for performing is evident with his sold-out engagements in NYC, LA and London's West End.  His latest offering, "A Showbiz Scrapbook," combines audio/visual elements with songs and stories from his long career and is already playing to enthusiastic audiences around the US and Australia.

For three seasons, he was the Hollywood Producer/Reporter for TV GUIDE TELEVISION and frequent guest star on everything from celebrity news and talk shows to sitcoms and travel programmes. He's contributed to a vast array of outlets, from news magazines EXTRA, ACCESS HOLLYWOOD, INSIDE EDITION and eight years as RTE Ireland's Afternoon Entertainment Guru to his own how-to series "NEW with NELSON!“

In February 2020 Nelson won the prestigious International Media Award bestowed on a journalist each year by the US Publicists Guild. Nelson commented “It’s special to accept the honour on Oscars weekend especially as it also marks my 17th Anniversary with Sunrise”.
