Fifi Box Career

Fifi Box has built a solid career in both radio and TV. She started in small radio stations and worked her way up to hosting some of the biggest shows in Australia. Along the way, she’s also made a name for herself on television with appearances on popular programs and even acting roles. 

Her mix of talent, humour, and down-to-earth style has made her a favourite with audiences across the country.

Early Radio Days in Regional Australia

Fifi Box got her start in radio by working in smaller regional stations. She began at 2MC and ROXFM in Port Macquarie, then moved to 3TR in Traralgon, and later 3GG in Warragul. These early jobs helped her build confidence in the air and understand how the radio industry works. 

Like most people starting, she had to grind through those early morning shifts and smaller audiences before moving to bigger platforms.

Breakthrough with Fifi and Jules

Her big break came in November 2010 when she was picked to co-host “Fifi and Jules” with Jules Lund. This was a national show across the Today Network. It launched in February 2011 and was on air from Monday to Thursday. 

Fridays were set aside for Hamish and Andy. This show gave Fifi a much bigger audience and helped her become a familiar voice for listeners all around Australia.

Hosting Fifi and Dave on Fox FM

In November 2013, Fifi shared that she’d be launching a new breakfast show with comedian Dave Thornton. Their show “Fifi and Dave” [1] started in 2014 on Fox FM and took over from the long-running Jo Stanley and Matt Tilley show. This was a major move, putting her in one of the biggest radio time slots in Melbourne.

Show Evolution: New Names, New Co-Hosts

The show didn’t stay static. In 2016, Brendan Fevola joined the crew, and the name changed to “Fifi, Dave and Fev.” [2]  Then in January 2017, Byron Cooke became part of the team, and the show was renamed “Fifi, Dave, Fev and Byron.” That version ran until Dave left in September 2017, which led to another name tweak: “Fifi, Fev and Byron.”

This lineup stuck around until December 2020 when Byron stepped away. In January 2021, comedian Nick Cody came on board, and the show took its current name, “Fifi, Fev and Nick.” It airs on 101.9 The Fox and continues to be a top-rated breakfast show in Melbourne.

Making Her Mark on TV

Outside radio, Fifi also became a well-known TV face. In 2007, she joined “Dancing with the Stars” [3]  on the Seven Network and stood out for her performance. That appearance helped her reach an even bigger audience. Over the years, she’s been a guest on popular TV shows like “Sunrise,” “The Project,” “Thank God You’re Here,” and “Have You Been Paying Attention?” She brought a fun and relaxed vibe to every show she joined.

Weather Presenter on Sunrise

In January 2009, Fifi stepped into a full-time TV role as the weather presenter on “Sunrise,” replacing David Brown. She held that role for almost a year, wrapping up her time on the show in December 2009. It was another big step that showed she could handle both radio and live television.

Acting Gig on Neighbours

In July 2016, Fifi took on a scripted acting role when she joined the Aussie soap “Neighbours” [4] as Brooke Butler. Her first episode aired on 28 September 2016. She left the show later that year but made a return as the same character in April 2017. It was a cool change of pace from her usual media work, and fans enjoyed seeing her on screen in a different light.

Return to Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars

In February 2021, Fifi came back to “Dancing with the Stars” for their special “All Stars” season. Even though she was the first contestant eliminated on 11 April 2021, she handled it with humour and grace. The experience brought back memories of her earlier stint on the show and reminded fans of her fun personality.
