60 Minutes on Channel 9 – this week has reports from Sarah Abo on Brooke Shields and Amelia Adams on TikTok.
TIKTOKING TIME BOMB
Who doesn’t like TikTok? Scrolling through millions of silly dance and lip-syncing videos is the perfect way to make anyone smile. It’s little wonder the hugely popular social media app has more than a billion users. What many of them don’t know, however, is that TikTok is a Chinese business. Of course there’s no law against that, but what is worrying is the amount of personal data the company harvests from its followers. In a joint investigation by 60 MINUTES and the Australian Financial Review, Amelia Adams reports that there are legitimate fears the Chinese Communist Party has access to that information and could be using it to spy on us.

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE BEAUTIFUL
For 56 of her 57 years Brooke Shields has been in show business. Television, movies, modelling, she’s done it all. Without question her career is impressive, though it hasn’t been without controversy. Or scandal. Her latest film is a documentary she has made about growing up as a Hollywood star. But as Sarah Abo reports, what’s surprising is this is no sugar-coated bio-pic. Brooke’s own story is brutally honest, revealing her darkest and most traumatic secrets.
Reporter: Sarah Abo
Producers: Lisa Brown, Sammi Taylor
