Career

He appeared in a high school production of The Man of Steel in 1995. He came to public attention when he starred as Zac Croft for two years on the Australian teen drama television series Heartbreak High. He later moved on to hosting television programs such as the now cancelled television series The Big Arvo and Popstars Live.

Jacobz made a return to acting in McLeod's Daughters as Patrick Brewer, appearing on the show between 2005 and 2008. He also appeared in a six-month recurring role as Angelo Rosetta in Home and Away, where after becoming a viewer favourite, he was then upgraded to series regular. In 2008, Jacobz was crowned Dancing with the Stars champion along with dancer and mentor Luda Kroitor.

On 23 August 2010, Jacobz was announced as the new host of The X Factor, replacing Matthew Newton, who stepped down from the role. Jacobz also began talks to appear in a new Australian drama series Wild Boys.

Jacobz returned as host for The X Factor in the fourth series, and finished hosting the seventh series on 24 November 2015.
Awards
In 2010, Jacobz was nominated for the Silver Logie Award for the most popular actor for his role on Home and Away.
Personal life
"Jacobz" is a screen name, derived from adding a 'z' to the actor's middle name of Jacob. Jacobz dated his Dancing with the Stars partner Luda Kroitor in 2009; the relationship ended some time later.
Jacobz was charged with drink driving on 31 May 2015 in Sydney, returning a 0.116 reading, well above the 0.05 limit. In court, he pleaded guilty and lost his licence for 12 months and was fined AU$700.
On 27 September 2015, Jacobz jokingly came out as gay/bisexual by asking a contestant Cyrus Villanueva on The X Factor (Australian TV series) whether he would be his boyfriend. Cyrus awkwardly replied, 'Yours?'.
