Matt Hardy, aka High Voltage or Ignis Fatuus, is an American wrestler working for WWE.
Sadly, he won’t be performing at the Glee.
But our Matt Hardy – a comedian and comedy writer, regarded as the first Australian to cement himself full-time on the live UK circuit –will.
In 2007 Sony BMG released Matt's debut DVD/CD, entitled 'I'm So Australian'. Based around a series of sly, sarcastic one-liners regarding what it takes to be Australian, this show was recorded before a live audience at The National Theatre.
He has also written a best selling book published by Random House, Saturday Afternoon Fever, looking at life as a supporter of St Kilda Football Club in the 1980s. The book formed the basis of a sell-out multi-media one-man show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Matt once wrote for FHM magazine and numerous TV credits include a sketch series he created which was nominated at Montreaux's International Golden Rose Awards in 1999.
