Can you believe MTV is 40 years old? Laura Whitmore has taken to Instagram to share a series of throwback snaps to celebrate the birthday, along with a heartfelt thank you.
Laura first shared a polaroid snap of herself, followed by plenty of pics of being on stage and interviewing celebs.
“MTV is 40! And while I’ve not been there that whole time (though feel like I could have been!) I’m so forever grateful!
“First pic was the Polaroid they took when I went for my first audition at MTV in Camden in 2008. And from that moment my life changed forever.”
Continuing, Laura wrote, “They took a chance on a young girl from Ireland with practically no experience and sent me across the world interviewing literally EVERYONE, getting up on stage in front of thousands and hosting live telly to millions.
“Thanks for the friendships along the way!”
This comes after Laura recently revealed that she gets nervous speaking about her daughter online.
“I get a bit anxious talking about my child on this space as I feel so protective but I wanted to talk about breastfeeding. This isn’t knocking anyone who doesn’t but it’s #breastfeedingawarenessweek and I know so many new mums don’t get the support they need like the encouragement of feeding in the golden hour after birth and that it’s ok to feed in public without feeling you should hide away. Feeding your baby is your number one priority.”
