Post Logies Post.

This is probably more watched than television in our house

So the logies are over for another year. I love watching them, even though I don't watch a lot of TV.

Okay, so let's start with the dresses.
I think the first thing I said was, OMG is that Rhonda? As in - Eyes on the road Rhonda, Rhonda...? (Because let's face it, nobody knows her as Mandy). Wow, she was looking smoking hot. Although, she kind of reminded me of Jessica Rabbit. On the flipside, and contrary to many peoples opinions, I didn't really like Carrie Bickmore's outfit, yet today the herald sun gave her a ten out of ten. The big hair and the peachy dress just didn't do it for me. Asher Keddie's black and white number was nice, but I think she could have gone for something a bit more glamorous (and made an effort with her hair). Michelle Bridges looked a bit scary, but I guess that's fitting of her personality. I think that there was way too much chest emphasis there, needed a necklace to detract from all that bare skin.

All this
said I'm not all that fashionable myself. And bed hair is my natural state of going to Fountain Gate. My favorite would have had to be Rebecca Gibney, with her modest black dress and lovely hair style. In addition to that - how lovely that she brought her son!

The entertainment
I wouldn't be the biggest Bruno Mars fan (I don't hate him either) but I thought that last night's performance of Locked out of Heaven was rocking. The dance moves made me want to get up and dance along. What I loved was the whole band was in sync. I think the song was also a bit faster than what it usually is.

Another worthy mention was definitely the Melbourne Gospel Choir which included the lovely Lucy Holmes from Light FM. That lead singer has amazing vocals!

The awards
I wish I had seen some more of my favorite actors and shows get awards, but I think that my favorites Winners and Losers and Packed to the Rafters have had their time to shine and now it's time for someone elses. I am sure the that there were worthy winners last night. Honestly, I had never heard of some of the programmes that were nominated and got awards -  but some, particularly the indigenous ones, looked like they were worthy viewing. And wow, wasn't Benna Harding adorable with her sobbing. I just wanted to give her a hug and congratulate her.

The spill
Lhemo (claim to fame: from my home town, his mum taught me piano!) tweeted before the logies that he wasn't allowed to live tweet. Fair enough, and for obvious reasons. Nobody like's a spoiler. Like many viewers I went to Twitter to tweet with fans and stars alike. The logies are delayed by half an hour (I would argue more). The Australian tweeted that Offspring star Asher Keddie won the gold logie by about 10pm. Googling 'logies spill' I found out that this also happened last year. I decided at about 11:30pm there was really no end in sight and it was way past my bed time. We all knew who would win the golden logie anyway. Congrats Asher.
