Hot on the heels of the most watched television event of the century, came the Australian entertainment industry's night of nights, the Logies. I can't decide which one was more polished and sophisticated. A tough call.
I truly don't know where to start when it comes to the Logies. I guess my first comment would be - it's a really shit name for an awards ceremony. It's not even named after an Australian but some Scottish dude who did something important for television. Whatever. It just sounds like a joke. Logies. Bogies. Bogus. See what I mean?
Then there was the red carpet. Livinia Nixon looked like skeletor as she bailed people up to find out whether they were wearing J'Aton or Aurelio Alphabet. Seriously. It was either one or the other. And the plugs for Myer were just out of this world.
Poor old James Mathieson, who was interviewing guests on the red carpet crashed and burned, regularly. But his interview with Maroon 5 was the worst of the lot. His Bieber Fever and Maroon Five 'Hives' joke was enough to make anyone cringe, including Mathieson. Though Jules Lund gave James a run for his money when he told Rebecca Gibney she could get drunk and throw up in a cab. Lucky girl!
On the bright side, some of the ladies looked fantastic. I actually bothered to vote for Kat Stewart, purely because apparently channel 9 were donating all the profits to the Red Cross. Fingers Crossed. Stewart looked amazing. So did Sarah Murdoch. And a pregnant Rebecca Judd looked fantastic as well. Of course, there were plenty who got it wrong. But they'll be seeing their names plastered across 'worst dressed' photo galleries all over the place today so I won't add to their woes.
I didn't watch a lot of the awards. But I heard that Karl Stefanovic made a total dick of himself when he won something and thanked his wife for having the best arse he's ever seen. Are you serious? The man is such a fool and then, and THEN, he wins the gold logie! WTF? If the whole event wasn't a complete sham to start with they go and give the award to the biggest moron on television. Well done channel 9. The only good thing about Karl winning is the hope that he got absolutely stinking drunk and turned up on the Today show this morning with a bit of vomit in his hair and some choice words for the audience.
So that's the Logies for another year. It's a shame the Brownlow is so far away. Between Karl and Fev the Australian awards shows are well represented by the tool brigade.
Until next time xx
