Last year Shirley MacLaine made the news talking about her belief in UFOs when she was in Britain filming for the hit UK TV show Downton Abbey

Now she is in Australia and talks about her ex Lover foreign minister of Australia Andrew Peacock who she went UFO spotting with audio interview on the site...

As the only female member of the Rat Pack, the lover of a string of prominent men, and an author of books about the metaphysical and reincarnation, her audience can expect to hear some great tales.
In her typical candid style, Shirley shared with Robbie Buck memories of UFO spotting in Mexico with then foreign minister of Australia Andrew Peacock.
"We saw them," she said.
"I tried to get him to talk about Alice Springs but he was very loyal to his foreign service oath of secrecy," she laughed, hinting at rumours of an underground UFO research facility in the top end.
They remain good friends and Shirley says when she catches up for dinner with Andrew Peacock's wife Penne Korth they get a kick out of making fun of him.
"He likes it, because he knows we care about him."
These days Shirley MacLaine can be seen on the small screen on the television program Downton Abbey in which she plays Martha Levinson, the brash American grandmother who goes head-to-head with Maggie Smith's character the Dowager Countess of Grantham.
"I love Maggie, we've known each other for 40 years."
Now having just turned 80, Shirley says the roles for older women have markedly improved and she credits an ageing television audience.
"Maybe I've come along at the right time where there will be pictures for older people."
All in all, it appears Shirley MacLaine is taking ageing in her stride.
"I love being iconic: people are going, 'oh my god, she's still walking upright'."
An Intimate Evening with Shirley MacLaine comes to the State Theatre on 10 December 2014.
