Tones and I rocks her usual beanie and dark sunglasses combo at the APRA Music Awards in Sydney

Tones and I certainly made an entrance when she stepped out for the APRA Music Awards in Sydney on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old Dance Monkey hitmaker was joined by an entourage as she hammed it up for photographers on the red carpet.

Tones and I – real name Toni Watson – positioned herself front and centre in the sizeable group as they crouched down for photos.

She pulled out a variety of poses, which left her friends in stitches of laughter as they gathered around her.

Showing off her androgynous style, Tones and I stepped out in a pair of black pants and a black button-up shirt.

She also paired black lace-up brogues with olive green socks, and rounded out her ensemble with her trademark beanie and dark sunglasses.

Tones and I was nominated for Most Performed Pop Work and Most Performed Australian Work at the awards.  

Earlier this month, it was revealed Tones and I had added to her lucrative property portfolio after buying her fourth home. 

According to a report by realestate.com.au at the time, the singer purchased a $7.08million mansion on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula.

She also owns another home in Mount Eliza, which she bought for $5.1million in May last year, and a Byron Bay retreat she bought for $3.3million in December.

The rising star also bought another property in Melbourne’s Frankston for just $800,000 in January last year. 

Before finding fame, Tones and I slept in her van and started out busking on the streets of Melbourne and Byron Bay.  

In an interview with KIIS FM’s The Kyle & Jackie O Show in May last year, Tones and I confessed she was ‘happy enough’ in her old life. 

‘It’s such a hard thing to talk about, because the life that I had before, some of it was the best time of my life,’ she said.

She added: ‘[I] never expected this to happen, just wanted to busk forever, and I was happy enough, I didn’t need anything.’
