Jason Donovan Opens Up (2007) | Drugs, Kylie Minogue, Neighbours & Between the Lines
Take a look back at these revealing 2007 interviews with Jason Donovan, as he promotes his autobiography, Between the Lines: My Story Uncut. In two very different interviews, Jason reflects on the highs and lows of his extraordinary career—from his Neighbours fame and chart-topping music success to addiction, recovery, family life, and his relationship with Kylie Minogue. The first interview is a candid conversation with Sky News, where Jason openly discusses one of the darkest periods of his life, including his collapse outside The Viper Room in Los Angeles, his struggles with drug addiction, and how those experiences changed him forever. He also shares the important role his wife Angela Malloch played in helping him rebuild his life and career.
