Win a double-pass to Justine Sless' show in the Melbourne Comedy Festival on Monday 7th April at 9:00pm. Entries close 5pm Monday 31st March.

A community worker and mother of two, Justine Sless is a regular on the Melbourne Comedy circuit and is performing in her first Melbourne Comedy Festival show. Vibewire.net decided to find out more:


1. Bananas in pyjamas are... lazy bits of fruit who should put on some clothes, wouldn't be allowed in my house, they'd be straight in the compost bin.

2. Ignorance is... a word closely linked with Bliss.

3. I feel at peace when... I have found the perfect shade of red lippy.

4. Everyone is negotiable in a relationship, except... which side of the bed you sleep on, who has control of the remote and how much of the family budget can be reasonably spend on putting on a comedy show at the 2008 Comedy Festival.

5. In 20 years, I will... probably be eating dinner at my kids' house and refusing to do the dishes.

6. What celebrity do people say you look like? Oh gawd, Doris Schwartz from that 80's show Fame, but I have never worn leg warmers. And Kate Bush from another 80's thing. It's the hair, you see.

7. What famous person, living or dead, would you like to interview? Jorge Louise Borges, a Latin American writer. I reckon he would have some pretty interesting things to say.

8. What's the difference between you and your parents? I'm funnier, thinner and a lot more sarcastic.

9. If you were an animal, what animal would you be and why? A lion, because then I wouldn't have to get my hair cut, use product or worry about bad hair days. And people wouldn't dare say "Having a bad hair day?" to a lion, 'cos I would snap their bloody heads off.

10. What did you have for lunch yesterday? Chicken, salad and chutney sandwich, apple, raw almonds, and a long meeting with a very poor offering of biscuits.
