EXCLUSIVE Roxy Jacenko slams WFH and reveals why she thinks it is going to severely harm businesses: 'Lazy'
Roxy Jacenko has slammed working from home arrangements, describing it as a 'lazy' work mentality. Speaking at her 'In Conversation with Roxy Jacenko' exclusive event in Sydney on Friday, the PR dynamo said the key to a good business operation is interacting and networking - in person. 'We stopped picking up the phone, stopped going to things, stopped networking altogether. Zoom became an easy way of doing business,' Roxy told the crowd. 'It's a lazy way of doing business. The fact is, people want an experience, they want a memory. We need to start doing that networking again.' Roxy runs a PR firm and Ministry of Talent, a talent agency that represent influencers like Costeen Hatzi and reality TV star Ash Pollard. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the She believes that as working from home arrangement continue, workers are increasingly forgetting the importance of being around people. 'Everything has become digital, but people want the touch-and-feel experience. This is why I am doing this (seminar), there is an importance in being around people,' she explained. 'We lost that connection during Covid. We became lazy. Instead of going to a face-to-face meeting you would have a meeting over Zoom or Teams.' 'I get to an end result because I do it face-to-face. People want to be treated like real people, they want to belong. It's about community,' she added. 'We want to see a familiar face, to see a connection. So much more comes from face-to-face than staring at a screen. It's s**t on Zoom, it doesn't have the same connection.' She went on to describe a recent business meeting with an investment banker in Singapore. When she walked into the company's office there were no employees at their desks because everyone was working from home. She said it made her think twice about working with the company, and in turn, they lost her business. 'When you walk into our office, it's light and bright, there's orchards and music, There's a vibe!' she said. WFH became the norm for white-collar workers during the Covid lockdowns from 2020 - 2022, and has since become entrenched in many industries, with more than a third of Australians now doing their job at home. Some companies are pushing to get staff back into the office more often in the belief it is a more efficient way of working, but the Productivity Commission recently concluded the opposite. This is not the first time Roxy has slammed working from home. Back in November 2024, she scolded fellow business owner Jane Lu over her working from home policies at Showpo. She expressed her disapproval of the CEO's decision to have employees work in the office only two out of five days per week. Speaking on The Lazy CEO Podcast with Jane Lu, Roxy emphasised her belief that having staff present in the office five days a week would foster greater collaboration among the team. 'You've got a whole team out there. Get them here five days a week, not f**king two days a week,' she said. 'The only way to work the team is with the team. And I'm sorry, I don't believe in this work from home.' Jane acknowledged that when she had her team in the Showpo office full-time, she noticed that more ideas were 'bounced off' and exchanged among colleagues. 'Before Covid, I was more the same age as everyone. We were together five days. [There was] so much more collaboration,' she said. 'Everyone just presents ideas to me. There's no brainstorm.' 'Yeah, but that's your fault. You're the boss,' Roxy quipped. 'You're not together, you're not on the floor with them... only two days a week.' Roxy, who relocated her family to Singapore in 2023, confirmed in September she had made a return to publicity and Sydney two years after stepping down as director of Sweaty Betty.

Nick Kyrgios' shock OnlyFans move after splitting from Costeen Hatzi
Nick Kyrgios is raising eyebrows with his post break-up activity. The Australian tennis star is living it up as a single man and is taking his work with OnlyFans to new heights. The 30-year-old is set to host a brand new reality series for OnlyFans TV as they look to push into the mainstream. Set to be titled Smash City, Kyrgios will host alongside reality star Sophie Stonehouse and adult entertainer Rachel Starr. The four-episode show is set to be a pickleball-based competition and will see eight OnlyFans creators compete for $20,000 in a variety of pickleball games. The show is set to launch on June 13. The eyebrow raising activity was announced before Kyrgios found himself in the spotlight after being snapped alongside rapper Ay Huncho at a nightclub on May 9. The controversial rapper, whose real name is Ali Younes, is allegedly a member of one of Sydney's most notorious underworld clans. Younes is currently out on $1.8 million bail for charges relating to an alleged kidnap and assault. He has pleaded not guilty. The image of the pair was taken earlier this month after the rapper had performed at Fiction nightclub in Canberra. According to The Daily Telegraph, Ay Huncho had his bail conditions changed to allow him to keep playing shows around the country. 'Keep waiting on it @ayhuncho,' Kyrgios captioned the image with four blue freezing face emojis. Kyrgios' latest moves come after he and girlfriend Costeen Hatzi called time on their four-year relationship in April. The pair began dating in 2021 after linking up through Instagram when Hatzi was selling a mirror. Hatzi, 25, appeared to give Kyrgios a social-media slap in March when she posed for a series of photos shared on TikTok. The photos included a watermark caption: 'The photos are good when the photographer isn't secretly jealous'. Kyrgios has at times been the tragic 'boyfriends of Insta' photographer behind some of Hatzi's ritzy influencer posts and selfie shots. It is a sad end to a relationship that had previously sparked marriage and baby rumours. Things took off for the couple less than a year into dating with Kyrgios hinting multiple times his plans to one day marry Hatzi. The duo sent tongues wagging in 2022 following sightings of Hatzi sporting a diamond ring on her engagement finger. Last year Hatzi opened up in a wide-ranging interview where she spoke about the rumours of the two tying the knot and starting a family. She said they've 'definitely had conversations'. 'We love each other. (But) there's no rush. It'll happen when it happens,' she said. 'Nick tells me every day that he wants a baby.' Hatzi earlier this month revealed the pair are no longer on speaking terms.
