Deni Hines Takes on the Jungle

Deni Hines is swapping her glamorous stage life for a rugged adventure in the South African jungle on "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" The singer-songwriter has been in the public eye since childhood, growing up alongside her famous mother, Marcia Hines. Known for her own hit songs, Deni is no stranger to reality TV, having previously appeared on "Dancing with the Stars," "Celebrity Apprentice," and "The Masked Singer Australia." Now, she's ready to captivate audiences once again.

“Mum’s excited,” Deni shared with Woman’s Day, "She’s like, ‘I can’t believe you’re doing this. What are you doing!?’”

Squashing Family Feud Rumors

For years, rumors swirled about a possible rift between Deni and her mother, Marcia. However, they’ve put these whispers to rest. In January, Marcia shared a heartfelt photo with Deni on social media, celebrating their time together in Bangkok. Deni confirmed that her mom was among the first to know about her jungle adventure, emphasizing their close bond.

The Rockmelons and Solo Success

Deni's musical journey began as a backing vocalist for big names like INXS and Kylie Minogue. In 1991, she joined The Rockmelons, contributing to hits like "Ain’t No Sunshine" and "That Word (L.O.V.E.)." Although she wasn’t a fan of "Ain’t No Sunshine," she made peace with performing it live. Deni soon ventured solo, releasing her debut album "Imagination" and achieving international acclaim, particularly in Japan and France.

Love and Life in Thailand

Deni has been happily married to her third husband, Daniel Moses, since 2012. She describes him as the "love of my life" and appreciates how he makes her laugh. Despite previous marriages, including with INXS guitarist Kirk Pengilly and record producer Dennis Charles, she found lasting happiness with Daniel. The couple now resides in Thailand, enjoying life together.

Deni's Global Impact

Deni's influence extends beyond music. Her work appeared in films like Luc Besson’s "Taxi" and the David Bowie film "Everyone Loves Sunshine." She's also graced the theatre stage in productions such as "Jesus Christ Superstar." With a career spanning continents and genres, Deni Hines continues to inspire and entertain, whether on stage, screen, or in the jungle.
