Sophie Monk is set to transition from being a contestant to a judge of a reality show. After winning “The Celebrity Apprentice Australia” Season 4, she is set to join the judging panel of “Australia’s Got Talent” Season 8.

Following her “The Celebrity Apprentice Australia” Season 4 win over former “Big Brother Australia” winner Tim Dormer, Monk has been taking to Instagram to share behind-the-scenes photos of “Australia’s Got Talent” Season 8, which is set to premiere in 2016. She captioned a recent photo, “Vogue! Ha #australiasgottalent @gottalentau @channel9.”

Monk’s fellow judges in “Australia’s Got Talent” Season 8 are Eddie Perfect, Kelly Osbourne and Ian “Dicko” Dickson. Beating reality star Nathan Jolliffe, Dickson was the winner of “The Celebrity Apprentice Australia” Season 2.

On Nov. 26, Osbourne took to Instagram to share a photo of her with Monk. She captioned it, “Backstage practicing my duck face with @sophiemonk @gottalentau.”

Monk is the third female winner of “The Celebrity Apprentice Australia.” The first season of the reality show was won by comedienne Julia Morris over “So You Think You Can Dance” judge Jason Coleman, and the third season was won by Olympic Gold Champion Stephanie Rice over her fellow Olympian John Steffensen.

After Mark Bouris declared her as “The Celebrity Apprentice Australia” Season 4 winner on Nov. 18, Monk was very emotional as she explained how the reality show changed her as a person. She said she was very proud, and the show had taught her many lessons.

Hosted by stand-up comedian Dave Hughes, “Australia’s Got Talent” Season 8 marks Monk’s first time to serve as a judge in a reality show. Recently, she was with Perfect, Osbourne and Dickson at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Melbourne for the show’s auditions, 9News reports.

“Australia’s Got Talent” was won by Bonnie Anderson in 2007, Joe Robinson in 2008, Mark Vincent in 2009, the Justice Crew dance troupe in 2010, Jack Vidgen in 2011, Andrew De Silva in 2012 and the Uncle Jed band in 2013. The show was in hiatus in 2014.
