Alli Butler: 40 Year Old Popstar

Alli Butler woke up the other day and discovered she was 40. That was unexpected. Last time she looked she was 20. How did becoming a nurse, getting married, having a kid and finding a psychiatric facility for her husband eat up so many days? To get back on her path to mega celebrity, Alli flees the city and returns to the small country town where she was born to launch her pop career from there!

Tossing her nursing registration and sphygmomanometer to the wind, life becomes a rollercoaster of gigs, recordings and photoshoots. Occasionally she feeds her child. Alli Butler, a stand-up comedian, singer-songwriter, nurse and 40 year old mum, who refuses to inject her face with Botox (this week) tells of her hilarious trajectory towards stardom among the sheep, cows and canola.
