Viewers lash out at 'boring' Logies ceremony amid rumours the awards night is 'on its last legs'
The Logie Awards got off to a glamorous start on Sunday night. But not everyone watching the telecast was impressed, with many viewers lashing out at the 'boring' awards show. Several people took to X to slam the annual ceremony and claim the Logies simply isn't relevant any more. 'No better confirmation that free to air TV is dying than the #Logies - a mixture of yesterday's celebrities and nobodies talking about themselves,' one person wrote. 'It's quaint how they still have the Logies - a dying medium celebrating mediocrity #Logies,' another said. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A third commented: 'Dear Aussie media, no one gives a flying f*** about the Logies, regards, the Australian public.' 'Are the Logies even relevant anymore?' another questioned while one said: 'Geez the Logies have become so irrelevant.' 'In fairness the Logies are an embarrassment and have been for at least 30 years... Did you see the nominees for awards this year? Not a shred of talent to be seen,' one wrote. Another added: 'Sometimes I get mad about how much I pay for streaming services but then remember I don't have to endure torturous broadcasts like tonight's #Logies.' It comes after Daily Mail revealed the Logie Awards might not be back next year - or ever. A very high-level TV insider has revealed 'they're quietly rolling up the red carpet'. 'It's just not viable anymore. No one wants to pay for it, no one's watching, and the people behind it are already looking for an exit,' said the source. That 'exit' is apparently the upcoming fire sale of mags at Are Media - which owns TV Week and the Logies brand. The private equity firm backing Are Media, Mercury Capital, wants out after five years of underwhelming returns. The Logies red carpet used to host the likes of Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, One Direction, Ricky Martin and even Destiny's Child. 'You remember when the Logies had international stars, outrageous moments, drama?' said the insider. 'Now it's a glorified promo reel for local TV. It's like the Bogan Oscars. The big acts are gone - and so is the audience. 'It's Karl Stefanovic, Sonia Kruger, Hamish Blake - rinse and repeat. Boring! The audience is tired, the talent's recycled, and the networks aren't throwing cash at Logies campaigns like they used to.' The ratings have also plummeted as Seven - which reclaimed the Logies broadcast in 2023 after 28 years with Nine - has seen a 20 per cent drop in digital audience. 'Seven thought they were buying back a national treasure. What they got was a very expensive nostalgia trip,' the insider added.

Olivia Rodrigo puts on leggy display in tiny silver miniskirt and matching corset for Lollapalooza performance
OLIVIA Rodrigo thrilled Lollapalooza crowds on Friday night when she performed a set of her iconic hits. Putting on a rather leggy display in the process, Olivia, 22, wore a seriously tiny silver miniskirt as she rocked out on the stage before welcoming a special guest in the form of a band. 8 8 8 8 8 Olivia looked amazing in a sparkling silver corset and matching miniskirt as she added some nude fishnet tights and knee-high black boots. She wore her brunette hair down and in subtle waves, and kept her makeup slightly moody and grunge with a dark plum lip. As well as her chunky black lace-up boots to add an edge to her look, Olivia also added some silver rings, but kept her nails bare. Performing for the packed crowd, the brunette beauty crooned a selection of her hits including Jealousy, Jealousy, Drivers License, Vampire, and Traitor. As she always does during her live shows, she was seen strumming a red electric guitar midway through the set. SURPRISE GUEST Thrilling fans with a surprise guest, Olivia brought out Weezer. Introducing the band to the stage, she then told the crowds that the first concert she ever went to was a Weezer show. They then played the Blue Album classics Buddy Holly and Say It Ain't So together. Lollapalooza is an annual four-day music festival held in Chicago. Olivia is among several other artists to headline the event that began on July 31 and will end today (August 3). Incredible moment Olivia Rodrigo brings out Ed Sheeran at huge sold out BST gig ahead of Glastonbury Other artists billed to perform at the event are the likes of Rüfüs Du Sol, TWICE, Sabrina Carpenter, and A$AP Rocky. OLIVIA GOES TO ENGLAND This comes just weeks after Olivia stormed the stage in the United Kingdom for two amazing performances. Making her way around the globe, Olivia has been appearing at some of the biggest and most beloved festivals this summer. In June she took to the stage at BST Hyde Park in England's capital city of London. Performing her biggest hits to an adoring crowd of fans in the middle of the park, Olivia left concert goers stunned by her live performance.

The Lions awards: NIK SIMON picks his top players, tries and laughs from a memorable tour Down Under - and shares his wishes for 2029
The 2025 British & Irish Lions' tour of Australia ended in resounding success, with the tourists clinching a 2-1 series victory. It marked the Lions' first series win over Australia since 2013 and their first tour triumph under Andy Farrell's leadership. The opening Test in Brisbane saw the Lions explode out of the blocks with a commanding display, while the second Test delivered even more drama, as the Lions clawed back from an 18-point deficit to snatch a last-gasp win. While Farrell's side were unable to clinch the first 3-0 clean sweep for a Lions side since 1927, this tour was not short of memories. The Lions next tour is a highly anticipated 2029 visit to New Zealand, where they will contest a series against the All Blacks. Here, Mail Sport's Nik Simon looks at some of the milestones from the Lions' recent trip down under. Best player There is a compelling case for Finn Russell to be recognised as the best No 10 in the world right now. He lit up games with his nonchalant swagger, now underpinned by assured game management. The series win rounds off the best season of his career. Best try Tom Wright's score in the second Test ripped up the entire tour narrative. Attacking from their own 22, the Wallabies turned into the galloping golds of a different era. Joseph Suaalii cut open the midfield and Wright finished a flowing move that left 90,000 fans in a state of shocked delirium. Best atmosphere The MCG was the loudest stadium but it was the walk down Caxton Street to the first Test in Brisbane where the sea of red burst into life. With timber-frame buildings and music pumping out of every bar, it felt like we were on Frenchmen Street in New Orleans. Best accessories After the defining victory in Melbourne, Sione Tuipulotu's family decked out the players in celebratory garlands. Rooted in Pacific Island culture, each player's garland had around 25 chocolate bars stitched on to it, ranging from KitKats to Caramel Wallabies. Funniest moment The stadium announcer in Perth kicked off the tour with a bang when he introduced the Lions before kick-off. 'The Aussie at No 14, Mack Hansen. Another Aussie at No 12, Sione Tuipulotu. At No 11, the Kiwi now Irishman, James Lowe. At prop, the former SA schoolboy now Scotsman, Pierre Schoeman.' A rare sprinkling of salt on an otherwise mild-mannered tour. Best opposition player Man-mountain Will Skelton was a colossus for the Wallabies. He changed the narrative with his physicality, with the Wallabies leading the aggregate score when he was on the pitch. If he had been fit to play in the first Test and lasted longer in the second, the series could well have had a different outcome. Best journey As part of the Roar and Uncut video series, we hitched a lift from Newcastle to Canberra with three fans from Long Eaton RFC; Brooky, Daz and Aidy. We broke down and had to crawl down the hard shoulder at a snail's pace but it was full of fun, friendship and laughter. A reminder of the true essence of touring. Most popular tourist Bundee Aki was the man at the heart of the raucous celebrations when the Lions wrapped up the series in Melbourne. He led the team on a two-day party, with some moral support from Mack Hansen. He has been chairman of the fines committee, leading the team's infamous kangaroo courts. In the 2029 series against New Zealand, I want to see less second-half blowouts in the warm-up matches Least like to be stuck in a lift with I was staying in the same hotel as the Pasifika XV when they played the Lions in Melbourne. Taniela Tupou stepped into the same lift as me, heading up to the 18th floor, and it's safe to say there wasn't much breathing space after a few of his team-mates joined. Wish for the 2029 series Let's make sure the provincial teams come out fully loaded so we have jeopardy from start to finish. There were too many second-half blowouts in the warm-up matches. It would also be superb to see a match played in the Pacific Islands, just a short flight from New Zealand.
