Gold Logie 2011: It’s Karl!

Today show co-host Karl Stefanovic has won the 2011 Gold Logie award.

The Gold Logie for 2011 has gone to Today‘s Karl Stefanovic.

Stefanovic defeated Asher Keddie, Adam Hills, Chrissie Swan, Rebecca Gibney, and Jessica Marais.

His win capped off a big night including a Silver Logie as Best Presenter.

“I never expected it (recognition for his work), especially because it came out of all that gloom,” he said.

“There were so many disasters to cover in quick succession that people saw a lot of me, I think.

“It’s amazing. It’s still TV’s night of nights and a lot of people have gone out of their way to vote. My mum has been very busy!”

  1. You know an awards show has lost every bit of respect and dignity, when the sexiest, pretentious, d*** head, Karl Stefanovic wins a gold logie

  2. Eddie thought the possibility of Chrissie Swan winning gold was a joke but this Karl winning is just as much of a joke. Epic Fail for the Logies voting system. I would like to know the difference between voting online for the nomination and this result on the phones.

  3. I agree. The Logies have officially jumped the shark. This Gold Logie has ruined their reputation. Every newspaper, website and television show is taking the p*ss out of this win.

  4. @steven… pull the other one! if you think seven is starting to slip just because of the logie voting, think again 😉 far from it.. it’s going to take nine a lot more than a marketing campaign to regain the glory days – not happening mate!

  5. And with this win for Gold, the Logies just jumped the shark.

    The least deserving winner I can think of ever for this award. It is time for the Logies organisers to rethink the voting scheme – it just broke.

  6. @James it is equivalent to $14million value, my source tells me that the time could have been used to promote the other new & exciting shows (csi & csi miami, underbelly S1 in vic) on the 9 network or sold as advertising space.

  7. You have got to be kidding me. If this award came with a pair of shoes for every time the winner put their foot in their mouth, they would need a chain store supply them all for him. I stopped watching Today because he was on it and I found him so offensive.

  8. Go Karl! And go Nine! Channel seven is starting to bomb, we all knew channel seven could not hold nine off for as long as nine held off seven. 25 years wasn’t??? Seven is crap.

  9. Interesting insight to the make up of those in the general public who take the time to vote for the logies. Although my personal opinion is that if Karl is our most popular television personality Australian television is in trouble…. But host of the today show, and a co-host on the circle, both morning television when a very large portion of society is out working winning the top awards goes to show the majority of voters are the retired and unemployed. I also find it interesting that both Today and more so The Circle are not the leaders in their timeslots for their programs, more people watch Sunrise and more people watch the Morning Show and Kerrie Anne. It’s gained my attention that’s for sure.
