Rebecca Singh (born 9 December 1971) is a news presenter on the New Zealand television station, TV3.

She was born in Fiji and grew up in Nadi where her father worked as a communications officer at Nadi International Airport. She was educated at Jasper Williams High School and the University of the South Pacific. She realised her dream of working in television when she joined Fiji Television and rose up the ranks to became a presenter for the evening news.

After the political upheavels of 2000, she left Fiji and joined TV3 in 2001 beginning work as a reporter, producer, presenter and foreign editor. After a brief stint away from TV3, working for Livingstone Productions, she returned in 2004 to produce Nightline and now does environmental reporting as well as presenting.

Despite her busy schedule she contributes to cultural activities organised by the local Fiji Indian community. She has hosted the Bollywood Dance Competition which is a part of the Diwali Festival.[1]

Rebecca Singh has been announced as the new weekend anchor of 3 News, after current anchor Sacha McNeil moves to present the new midday bulletin Newsday.

New Idea magazine state that Rebecca Singh is getting married to her long-time girlfriend, Kelly Rice in August 2008. "It's going to be an interesting bunch of people, quite eclectic," Kelly tells NI about the couple's wedding. "There are the work people, the family, the gay people and the straight people."
