Zaetta’s fourth film Mr. White Mr. Black was released worldwide in 2008. The character saw her as a Charlie's Angels style action girl in pursuit of stolen diamonds while being chased by criminals. This required her to learn fight sequences and perform wire work to display flying summersaults and mid air kickboxing manoeuvres in 2008.
Zaetta toured Australian Defence Force bases in Afghanistan and Iraq during early 2008 with a group of entertainers including 12 members of the Royal Australian Navy's band, Angry Anderson, The Wolverines, and others. On 21 May 2008, a draft ministerial "hot issues brief" was published in various Australian newspapers, that intimated that Zaetta had engaged in sex with a member of the Australian Special Air Service Regiment (SAS). Several members of the touring group said in media interviews that they were so 'managed' and tired during the trip that they could not imagine that this could be possible. "I've heard of quickies mate, but you'd have to be really quick - we didn't have time to do anything," said John Clinton, from the country rock band The Wolverines, on Macquarie Radio. Additionally, various members of the Government of Australia denied that this was seriously suggested. Zaetta strongly denied the allegation, and demanded an apology. On the evening of 22 May 2008, an unreserved apology was given by the Department. In September 2009, News Limited settled out of court with Zaetta for an undisclosed sum.
