2022 has been Abbie Chatfield's biggest year yet.

In this year alone, the former Bachelor contestant has landed her own weeknight radio show, started a size-inclusive fashion brand, pitched a TV show for Channel 10's pilot week, and will now appear as a judge onThe Masked Singer Australia.

Yep, quite a lot of success for someone who was once labelled a reality TV villain.

"It was definitely a shock [to getThe Masked Singergig] but I don't really allow myself to get excited about things until the contract is signed or we're on set," Abbie toldMamamia'sdaily entertainment podcast, The Spill.

The role, alongside Mel B, Chrissie Swan and Dave Hughes, was only confirmed just before the Logies, making the night - which was also Abbie's first Logies - extra special.

As you'd expect, there's a lot of prep that goes into getting ready for an awards show - there's choosing an outfit, shoes and accessories, followed by hours of hair and makeup.

After the mad rush of getting ready, Abbie realised she had not one decent photo of herself.

"I had a borderline tantrum because I'd spent five hours getting ready and I [didn't] have a photo of myself," she told Laura Brodnik, co-host ofThe Spill.

It might sound like something minor, but as Abbie explained, it really threw her off.

"I was so anxious about being at the Logies and what my brain does is focus on one thing," she said, before explaining how that works.

"If you feel anxious, you'll focus on one thing and you'll think 'if just this one thing was right I'll feel better,'" she said. "So I honestly had a little teary in the bathroom."

"Not because of the photo, but [because] I was very anxious," she added.

(Thankfully, Abbie saw our team post a photo of her on the red carpet which she too later uploaded.)

The Logies was a big night for more than one reason - it was the first time Abbie met fellowThe Masked Singerpanelist, Spice Girl Mel B.

"Just immediately, she's such a lovely, warm, nice person and not intimidating at all," Abbie said of their introduction.

Ever since meeting, the two have gotten along like a house on fire. Abbie puts that down to something they have in common.

"I think because she also has ADHD and has spoken about it, and we spoke about it a lot together, I think we are just quite similar in that way," she said.
