The Jaquie Brown Diaries is a New Zealand comedy television series that aired on TV3 from 2008-2009. The show stars Jaquie Brown as herself, a self-obsessed, fame-hungry journalist who is constantly vlogging her own life, as she navigates the ups and downs of the entertainment industry.

Throughout the two seasons of the show, viewers follow Jaquie as she interviews celebrities, attends red-carpet events, and deals with the highs and lows of being a television personality. Along the way, she makes new friends and enemies, and tries to balance her personal and professional life.

One of Jaquie's closest friends on the show is her producer, Hannah Tolich. Hannah helps Jaquie with all aspects of the show, including planning segments and handling logistics. Together, they often find themselves in ridiculous situations, such as trying to get into exclusive events or attempting to land interviews with big-name stars.

Another key character in the show is Madeleine Sami, who plays a fictional version of herself. Madeleine is a fellow NZ television personality who is portrayed as Jaquie's biggest rival. The two constantly try to one-up each other in terms of popularity and relevance, which leads to some hilarious interactions between the two.

Overall, The Jaquie Brown Diaries is a fun and entertaining look at the world of television journalism, and the quest for fame and recognition in the industry. Jaquie's over-the-top personality and hilarious antics will have viewers laughing along with her, while also providing some insight into the challenges and pressures of being a successful television personality.
