Munster ditches Uber Eats, set to dine out on Blues
Uber Eats has lost a customer as Cameron Munster declares he is ready to dominate State of Origin again after making key lifestyle choices with the assistance of former NSW star Anthony Minichiello. The talismanic Queensland five-eighth missed last year's series with groin and hip injuries and thought his 18-game Origin career could be over. The 30-year-old has been on fire for Melbourne this year after losing four kilos in the pre-season and puts it down to cutting out fast food and reducing his alcohol consumption. "I had a chat to Anthony Minichiello last year and the way he went about things with his body after he had some injuries and they pretty much told him he couldn't play again," Munster said. "He changed his diet and that made his body feel better. There is science behind it all and I've been doing a little bit with him and it's worked well. "I don't drink a whole heap. In previous years I was burning the candle at both ends or drinking every second weekend. "As a rugby league player you win games with your teammates and you want to celebrate with them but I've found a way of celebrating with them but not drinking. "I'm not saying I'm going to cut the piss right out but I haven't touched a beer for a while. My body feels better and I don't have to take any anti-inflammatory (tablets)." Munster is also sourcing his own food rather than sitting on the couch and ordering in. "I'm not eating fast food any more. I probably should have bought shares in Uber Eats before," he grinned. "I make my own food now. I go to my local butcher down the road and buy meats, chicken just the normal stuff. "You are playing a professional sport and you've got to make sure you put the right fuel in your body. I've done it the last seven or eight months and it has helped my body recover." Munster was Wally Lewis Medal winner in 2020 as player of the series and is the Maroons' most influential player who is ready to take control and dominate the Origin arena, starting with the series opener on May 28 at Suncorp Stadium. "I don't think Billy (Slater) would have picked me if he didn't think I could (dominate Origin again)," he said. "I'm just excited to be back here. Last year when I had a run of injuries with my groin and hips I honestly, being a dramatic person, thought my rep career was over. "Now I have got it (surgery) done I feel amazing. "I am a lot fitter now than I was a couple of years ago. It would be nice to have a similar year to 2020, but all I can do is work hard and do the little things for the team. If the big moments come hopefully I can deliver. "I definitely missed it last year. I'd like these young blokes to have the opportunity to win a series and have some great memories with them." Munster and wife Bianca have three children and fatherhood has helped the former wild man mature and change his lifestyle. "It's the best thing I ever did. I had to grow up and it made me grow up," he grinned. "You definitely don't want to be hung over looking after kids. That's one of the main reasons why I don't drink a whole heap."

Can you spot footy great Anthony Minichiello's VERY bold new look as he steps out with his TV star wife Terry Biviano at A-list party?
Rugby league great Anthony Minichiello has been spotted wearing makeup on Saturday night while he attended the prestigious Silver Party in Sydney with his wife. The former Roosters star, 44, attended the exclusive bash with Terry Biviano at the Vaucluse home of Merivale boss Justin Hemmes, The Hermitage. The couple were joined by more than 300 guests from the A-list for the party, which had a 'rock royalty' theme and raises funds for the Sydney Children's Hospitals Foundation. Minichiello, who still appears fit enough to play in the NRL, looked sharp in a black suit with his shirt unbuttoned to show off his chest. The ex-footy star also appeared to be wearing eyeliner, which is a fairly common occurrence for male celebrities at red carpet events. Terry looked radiant in a lacy grey sequinned gown as the couple posed for photos. The couple are currently working on the redevelopment of their own Vaucluse property, which has been undergoing extensive renovations for about a decade. Supermodel and television icon Tyra Banks brought a dose of Hollywood glamour to the event, making a powerful fashion statement in a tailored pinstripe suit that fused elegance with edge. She paired the structured look with bold accessories and a sleek hairstyle, commanding attention as she arrived at the Vaucluse venue in style. Joining her at the glittering soirée was model Madeline Holtznagel, who proudly showed off her growing baby bump as she stepped out with her billionaire partner and event host Justin Hemmes. The 28-year-old beauty looked radiant in a strapless black gown featuring a sheer midriff that put her blossoming belly on display. With her brunette locks styled in an elegant updo and subtle, glowing makeup, Madeline was the picture of maternal glamour. Her partner Justin, 52, matched her sophistication in a perfectly tailored black suit, looking every bit the dashing dad-to-be, as he hosted the A-Listed stars at his lavish mansion in the upmarket Sydney suburb of Vaucluse called The Hermitage. Elsewhere at the event, Today show host Karl Stefanovic and his wife Jasmine were all smiles as they made a dramatic entrance in stylish outfits that turned heads upon arrival.

Jasmine, 41, oozed sophistication in a plunging black gown, which she teamed with a cream coat draped elegantly over her shoulders and dazzling diamond necklace - a chic touch that elevated her already-glamorous ensemble. Nova radio favourite Michael 'Wippa' Wipfli, 45, also stepped out for the exclusive soirée alongside his wife Lisa. The couple looked loved-up as they posed for cameras, with Wippa keeping it classic in a smart red tuxedo while Lisa stunned in a floor-length maroon dress adorned with a delicate floral lace pattern. Since its inception in 2001, the Silver Party has raised over $10 million in support of the state's most critically ill children, funding vital equipment, research, and life-saving treatments across the Sydney Children's Hospitals Network.
