Bindi Irwin's Glam Red Carpet Appearance Makes Waves
Bindi Irwin, the daughter of the late "Crococile Hunter" star Steve Irwin, made a glamorous appearance in Sydney, Australia that has everyone talking.
The 15-year-old Australia Zoo conservationist lost her father in 2006; the 44-year-old naturalist was pierced in the chest by a sting ray off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Maintaining Steve's legacy in television, Bindi attended the Australian Academy Cinema Television Arts (AACTA) Awards on Thursday, Jan. 30 where she graced the red carpet.
Bindi was first introduced to the public as a baby alongside her parents, co-hosts Steve and Terri, on "The Crocodile Hunter" television series. However, today, the teen is all grown up. The actress took on a stylish black-and-white floral frock at the AACTA's which she paired with ankle-length leather boots and glittery eye shadow, according to People.com.

Following in the steps of her famous father, Bindi broke onto the entertainment scene through her passion for nature with films such as "Free Willy: Escape From Pirate's Cove" which was released straight to DVD. The teen, who turns 16 in July, also appeared in 2013's "Return to Nim's Island" as well as her own TV show, "Bindi: The Jungle Girl," which is based on her "Bindi Wildlife Adventures" book series.
The young conservationist stays busy on social media, including Twitter under the handle @BindiIrwin where she often shares posts and photos from her life at The Australia Zoo alongside her mother.
"Speaking Irish all day today," Bindi wrote on Jan. 27. "Getting ready fot St. Patrick's Day @Australia Zoo. Mum said that I'm starting to sound like a pirate…"
Earlier, the teen wrote, "Went for a run, hugged a koala and fed a giraffe. Happy days."
Meanwhile, "Crocodile Hunter" ran for five seasons on Animal Planet where it was a smash hit. The wildlife documentary series spawned a number of ventures including the film "The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course" and two television spinoffs. The show still garners fans the world over, and runs on syndication on networks across the globe.
