Early Life

Bindi has a younger brother named Robert. She was given her first name after her father's favorite female crocodile at the Australia Zoo.

She began to appear on popular American talk shows like "The Ellen Degeneres Show," "Late Show with David Letterman," "Larry King Live," and others.
At this time, Irwin was becoming an all-round child star, producing a hip hop album called Trouble in the Jungle and appearing on a kids fitness DVD, where she performed with a group called Bindi Kidfitness. She starred in Free Willy: Escape from Pirate's Cove as Kirra and appeared in the Canadian TV series, My Babysitter's a Vampire.
