Delta Arrives With Choc-full Itinerary Beneath the sunglasses and smile, Delta Goodrem has the same desires as any young woman -- chocolate.
When the pop princess arrived in Hobart yesterday on her national tour, she was desperate to get to the Cadbury factory.
She and boyfriend Brian McFadden hoped to take in a few sights during their two days in the state and Cadbury was the No.1 priority.
"I want to see if we can go there now," she said after flying in about 4.30pm.
Goodrem, 20, has visited Tasmania before, including a one-off concert for 150 car dealers at Moorilla Estate last month, but the visit was a first for McFadden.
Goodrem said she was looking forward to performing in Hobart tonight, despite her band all being a little off-colour.
"The whole band has a cold but everything will be fine," she said.
Snug in a brown fur-trimmed coat and the company of her Irish singer boyfriend, Goodrem said there was no way she could leave Tasmania off the tour map.
"I always promised myself I would come to Tasmania because some of my mates who live here told me bands never come down to play," she said.
Tonight's performance at the Derwent Entertainment Centre will be Goodrem's 10th show on her Visualise tour, which began in Newcastle earlier this month.
"I'm having an absolutely fantastic time," she said.
While some acts downsize when they come to Tasmania to reduce costs, Goodrem has brought her entire entourage.
The show includes a six-piece band, a five-piece string section, three backing singers and four dancers.
Goodrem wears six outfits in the show, which also includes two duets with McFadden.
