Andy Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Logies hopeful ready to impress Sunday Telegraph 30 April 2006 HOME And Away star Jodi Gordon doesn't expect to beat former Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins to a Logie next week, but hopes to make a big impression on the red carpet. Gordon, 21, is in the running for Most Popular New Female Talent Logie on TV's night of nights, but concedes Hawkins is likely to win. "There's some very stiff competition for that Logie," Gordon says. "Everybody knows this award is a popularity contest, and Jen (nominated for The Great Outdoors) is certainly going to be hard to beat." Gordon believes the competition will be evenmore intense on the red carpet. "In many ways, the whole night revolves around what we wear," she says. "I'll be wearing a gorgeous dress by Toni Maticevski, my favourite Aussie designer, whom I've admired for years." This year's awards are shaping as a night when both the very new and also the more senior members of the television fraternity will shine. Firming as favourite for the prestigious Gold Logie is former Blue Heelers stalwart John Wood, followed closely by Rove McManus and Kate Ritchie. Bert Newton is also in the running for the coveted Gold Logie after scoring his first nomination in 22 years. The 67-year-old garnered the nomination after his highly publicised switch from Network Ten to the Nine Network in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princess_jessik Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 I thought the Logies were ment to be for actors? Presenting holiday destinations isn't acting. I have nothing against Jen, but I hope Jodi wins. Thank-you for posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-simone- Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 its for TV personalities, whether they r actors or presentors doesnt matter. 'most popular so and so talent' are the categories which home and away people and home and away are nominated for. the 'most outstanding so and so tv whatever' are the categories for actors but home and away isnt nominated for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
