Shannon Noll ProfileShannon Noll has butted heads with boxer Danny Green over their respective views about changing the date of Australia Day, with the Aussie musician saying that the day should be moved.
Talking with actress Kerry Armstrong on last night's I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, Noll said, "If that day represents obviously pain and heartache for our original, native Australians, then I think they're as proud Australians as any of us so I would be up for maybe moving it to a day that they are happy and we are happy and everyone is happy but not lose the day.

"If it offends our original Australians, I would be quite happy to talk about a date that suits everybody that doesn’t represent a bloodshed day for them."
However, Green disagreed with Noll's comments.
"It is not a day that is going to go away so where would you like to move it?" he asked when pressed by Armstrong about his stance on the subject.
"You either scrap the day altogether and no one ever came here and colonised the land."
