Tones and I continues to flaunt weight loss journey in very chic ensemble
Tones and I has continued to take pride in her recent weight loss journey. The singer, real name Toni Watson, shared a short video to Instagram on Friday which showed off her slender figure. Dressed in a sheer ruched top and a mini skirt, Tones and I, 32, held her phone up at a high camera angle and shook her long blonde locks for the 'fit check. The ARIA winner twisted from side to side and smiled as she held one hand placed on her stomach. She accessorised the form-fitting look with a full face of make up, layered gold necklaces, and an Instagram filter.

The Melbourne-born hitmaker recently celebrated her 32nd birthday in Los Angeles. 'LA B-day,' Tones and I captioned a carousel of images showcasing her time in the studio and blowing out 32 candles on a birthday cake. 'Also to all the videos that were made by the people I love THANK YOU! Even from all the way over the other side of the world I felt so much love. I'm so grateful!' she said. 'My girls here that made it so special and I can't thank you enough! Seriously, you made it the best day! Now bring on Vegas!!!' The singer has gone on an incredible weight loss journey since she last toured Australia last year and has continued to embrace her burgeoning passion for fashion. In August 2024, the singer addressed her dramatic transformation during an interview with Cosmopolitan Australia. 'When this [fame] all happened, I was not happy,' she reflected. 'I grew up as an athlete, playing basketball, and honestly those years of my life, from busking to the last year—those were me at my most unhappy with myself.' 'Being in this depressive cycle, with everything that was going on, I didn't have the mental health to say, right, I want to work hard on myself,' she told the publication. 'And the world definitely didn't make me feel better about myself. If there was any body positivity to be had, it wasn't coming my way. That affected it even more.' 'I've lost weight, so apparently that's the biggest thing that's ever happened to me in my life,' Tones and I added sarcastically. 'Everything is up for discussion. My body shape, my music, my livelihood, my relationship. 'I wish I could say that I could be someone where that doesn't affect me. But it does. Especially when like, my nanna, my family – they can see everything,' she added. Tones and I explained her decision to embrace a more feminine style has long been the aesthetic she relates to. 'I'm not a tomboy, I'm a girly girl and I always have been,' she said. 'But I didn't feel comfortable in myself and my body, so I covered myself up.' Tones and I's introduction to the music industry is the stuff of mythology. She was discovered busking on a Byron Bay street corner with her Casio keyboard. The singer had been living out of a van for two years, prior to being offered a record deal. She said the clothes she put on her back after queuing up for public showers was the farthest thing from a priority. On stage, the singer felt the demands to be 'physically interesting' (if not 'appealing') in her pop star career, and admitted she compensated for her inability to wear the clothes that she wanted with 'colourful' streetwear. But as time goes on, she feels more excited about fashion and using that to showcase her creative personality as much as she does in music. 'Going into this happy place now, I love myself more and I want to experiment with clothes like I used to when I was comfortable in my own skin,' she said. It has been a big year for Tones and I, who released her second studio album, Beautifully Ordinary, and has performed with her heroes such as Pink and Cyndi Lauper.

Tones and I enjoys boozy night as she is fined for brutal dog attack which saw her American bulldog maul and kill a Cavoodle
Aussie pop sensation Tones and I enjoyed a boozy night out in the US with friends on Wednesday evening, the same day she was fined over a brutal dog attack. The 32-year-old singer's American bulldog 'Boss' escaped her $7million mansion on the Mornington Peninsula in November last year, and attacked and killed her neighbour's pet Cavoodle. Boss was euthanised as a result. On Thursday, Dromana Magistrates' Court ordered the singer, whose name is Toni Watson, to pay a $3000 fine and the council's costs, The Herald Sun reported. That same evening, Watson shared a clip to social media which captured her partying with her friends at a club. The Melbourne-born singer was all smiles as she hugged a female friend and laughed when she quipped, 'we are officially alcoholics'.

Watson's dog Boss was put down after he killed a cavoodle by biting it on the neck and refusing to let go. The court heard that Watson's neighbour, Wayne Schultz, was walking his two cavoodles when he spotted her chocolate Labrador Charlie stuck outside the electric gates. He called out to Watson's friend Tahlia as she arrived at the property and, as she opened the gate, Boss escaped, the magistrate heard. Boss bit one of Mr Schultz's cavoodles on the neck and would not let go. Mr Schultz, Watson's husband Jason 'Jimmy' Bedford and a bystander were forced to intervene and separate the two dogs. The elderly cavoodle died as a result of its injuries. 'The victim's family are devastated by the loss of their family pet and the manner in which the dog died in front of them,' prosecutor Colin McLean told the court. On Thursday, Dromana Magistrates' Court ordered the singer, whose name is Toni Watson, to pay a $3000 fine and the council's costs, The Herald Sun reported. That same evening, Watson shared a clip to social media which captured her partying with her friends at a club Mr Schultz was injured, with a bite on his knee and a bruised eye. The stranger's hand was fractured when he hit the bulldog while trying to separate the dogs. Watson was at home in the shower at the time. The court also heard that she wept with her neighbours on the night of the attack. The neighbours reportedly didn't accept her offer to pay for the cavoodle's cremation due to the fact the dog was 17-years-old. Daily Mail Australia has contacted Watson's team for comment. The pop star did not front court as she's currently in the US recording an album but was represented by barrister Cameron Scott. Mr Scott told the court the musician had accepted responsibility and took the matter 'very seriously'. She was ordered to pay a fine for failing to securely confine two dogs and for not re-registering the American bulldog.
