There are always two things you can be sure will happen every Logies night.
At least one person will stack it on the red carpet… and Dave Hughes is bound to say something hilariously awkward during his opening monologue.
This year was no exception.
Here’s five of his most thigh-slappingly, cringe-worthy, tear-inducing moments:
1. When he roasted Channel Seven about spending all their money on Barnaby Joyce.
This was a double-banger.
Hughesy began his monologue with a good ole’ roast of Channel Nine’s lifelong rival Channel Seven.
The comedian then said the network must have spent all their money on that infamousSunday Nightinterview with Barnaby Joyce.
He then dropped this banger…
2. When he said what everyone was thinking about Married At First Sight.
Hughesy then turned his attention to Australia’s reality TV contestants. Who,erm, made up most of the official guest list ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
3. When he, erm, introduced the Australian public to Andrew Winter.
Next Hughesy zoned in on Andrew Winter, the host ofSelling Houses Australia, who has been nominated for the Gold Logie.
4. When he roasted himself about buying that house from The Block.
Last year Hughesy bought a house fromThe Block… without telling his wife.
The veteran comedian then explained it took so long to find a tenant for the $3 million house, he would have been happy to have it turned into a meth house.
5. When Hamish and Andy had to apologise for his, erm, Don Burke moment.
This was… awkward.
While addressing Gold Logie nominee Tracy Grimshaw, Hughesy brought up her controversial interview with Don Burke.
He then did averyHughesy thing and said, “No, I love Don Burke”, before correcting himself and adding, “
Later, when Hamish and Andy came on stage to present an award, they,erm, apologised for the comedian.
