‘It’s very bizarre. We have had lovely Australians, you know Rose Byrne seems to enjoy it, and we have had politicians,’ he said. 

‘It seems to have touched a lot of Australians, but just lately, internationally, we have had a few wrestlers, a wrestler called Edge [watches the show].’ 

He continued: ‘David Bowie’s son, Duncan Jones, who is an amazing director, seems to love it. It’s always very surprising.’

However, Mr Pearson admitted the team behind Bluey doesn’t like to boast about the show’s celebrity fans. 

‘We try to sit on it a bit and not use it too much, but it’s surprising when it pops up,’ he said.

Last month, Hollywood actress Eva Mendes told Now To Love that her children with partner Ryan Gosling have ‘binge-watched’ the show. 

‘They love Bluey! Bluey is huge in our house. Huge,’ she said. ‘It’s really beautiful, I really love Bluey. They get kind of this crazy energy afterwards and they play tricks on us. They really love the frozen statue thing.’

‘But they love Bluey, and we love Bluey, and we watch it a lot,’ she added.

Eva and Ryan share two daughters, Esmeralda, six, and Amada, four.
