Amazing Troy twins add sexy new reality to The Amazing Race Australia
--- Quote ---THE reality TV race is testing the endurance levels of some viewers (and TV critics).
Now Channel 7 is bringing out its secret weapons in the shape of sexy and super fit cheerleading twins from Sydney.
Meet Michelle and Jo Troy, sisters who take on the world in the second series of The Amazing Race Australia, expected to return to Seven next month.
The 26-year-olds have experience entertaining crowds as part of the Flames cheerleading squad for the St George Illawarra Dragons.
The twins said their TV challenge had been daunting.
"It's about endurance," Jo, the 2011 Cheer Girl Of The Year, said.
Seven has also begun promoting its blockbuster UK drama, Downton Abbey and this week confirmed a visit by actors Emily Vancamp and Josh Bowman, stars of its US hit, Revenge.
Channel 10's response to Nine's juggernaut The Voice will lean on the beautiful people of The Shire and the reality phenomenon, MasterChef Australia.

--- Quote ---COUSINS Adam and Dane are focused on the prize for the new season of The Amazing Race Australia ... well, almost.
"Dane's a hopeless navigator. He's always too busy checking himself out in the rear-vision mirror. Mr Vain!" said merchant seaman and father-of-two Adam about his 29-year-old cousin whom he grew up with in Tweed Heads.
"Vain Dane", who now works in Brisbane as a cardiac scientist, said his goal on the series which sends teams on a mad dash around the world would be to prove he can go at least 24 hours without looking at his reflection.
"We're very competitive, down to our bones," Dane said. "We both realise our strength is we're young and fit. If it comes down to the crunch and we have to do something to push ourselves through, we will race hard to win."
The indigenous duo will be up against 11 other teams of two, including the only other contestants from Queensland, newly engaged couple Kym, 46, and Donna, 42.
The Brisbane pair, with their rockabilly style and passion for jive dancing, describe themselves as "a couple of old knuckleheads in love".
It was that spirit that helped them through last year's devastating Brisbane floods.
"We both lost our jobs," Donna said. "I couldn't find anywhere to live. I had no job which has never happened to me before. We were in a mess."
Adam and Dane have also had a hard time in the past, losing a best friend in the Bali terrorist bombings. It made them appreciate the importance of friends and family. "We're as close as brothers and we want to live every day like it's our last," Dane said.
The new season of The Amazing Race Australia returns soon to Seven.

Kim & Donna:
I will kill 7 if they put this up against the voice.
ZouLy:
Ugghh... but the official website still in old school format... :stare :gaah:
Coutzy:
Spotted this on my way to work, and am currently avoiding work to share it. (TAR is a full time job, after all)
The billboard has our law enforcement friends, with the tag line "The Amazing Chase. Gooooooo Melbourne!"
theamazingracer21:
Cool bilboard. Nice find.
Lets try to work out when and in what timeslot it will air.
It wont be Monday or Tusday when the The Voice (The Voice is scoring over 2.5 million an episode, which is AMAZING in Australian ratings. So puting it up agianst it will be ratings suicide).
It wont be Friday (AFL on 7 in Melb, Ade and Per markekts) and probabily wont be Satarday or Sundays(I dont think it suits it in Australia).
At Wednesday 8:30 7 is airing Revenge when its normal timeslot in Monday 8:30.
Which I think means 7 wants to warm up this timeslot for The Amazing Race Australia.
Tell me what you think.
