Master of Ceremonies

Hello, I’m Jeremy Corbett.

How would I describe myself? Thanks for asking.

I’m 188cm of raw flab with glasses.

I got called one of the godfather’s of NZ stand up comedy the other day. It was by a younger comedian and meant as an insult.

Here it is in a nutshell: I’m a comedian, radio & TV presenter, computer programmer and Leo, born in Westport, grew up in Palmerston North and now live in Auckland with my wife, Megan, our two beautiful daughters Charlie and Billie and a Golden Retriever named Cookie

I host 7DAYS, 8:30 Thursdays on THREE

I also co-host THE PROJECT, 7pm weeknights on THREE

I also appear to be in demand as a corporate MC.

Most of my success has come from just sticking around.
