Conspiracy theory emerges over why the same Aussie celebrities such as Sonia Kruger and Julia Morris are nominated for a Logie every year

by

A commentator on media has proposed an explanation for why certain Australian celebrities consistently receive nominations at the Logie Awards annually.

On TikTok, Josh Fox highlighted that among Australian television personalities, it appears that Julia Morris, Sonia Kruger, and Hamish Blake are the true standouts with notable skills or abilities.

He seemed puzzled, asking if there was something he was overlooking, as he couldn’t understand why everyone seems so excited about the Logies each year – it leaves him perplexed every time. This was his response following the broadcast on Sunday night.

‘The media pretend it’s like the Oscars, but I don’t know anyone who cares?’ 

As a devoted fan, I took a close look at this year’s Gold Logie nominees, and couldn’t help but notice that the esteemed Kruger, age 59, who claimed the top award in 2022, has been a consistent contender for the prize annually since then.

Additionally, it was mentioned that Julia Morris, the host of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, who is 57 years old, has received a nomination for the prestigious Gold Logie award not once but four times within the span of four consecutive years.

‘Hamish Blake has had three Gold Logie nominations in the last four years,’ he continued.

‘It’s like Australia has no new talent.’

‘Who will be nominated when all these old television people die?’ one fan replied in the comments.

As a passionate admirer, I must mention that many individuals hold the Logies in high regard, but you won’t encounter them here, for they are predominantly older than 50 years old.

Every year, they are nominated due to the lack of fresh celebrity talent. Those aiming for stardom typically depart from Australia, as one person pointed out.

‘I don’t care for it, I didn’t know most of the shows nominated.’

Meanwhile, a similar conspiracy theory also surfaced on The Beetoota Advocate.

Under the title ‘A Woman Recognizes Everyone at the Logies Despite Not Watching Free-to-Air TV Since 2008’, the humorous article was posted on Monday and has garnered an impressive 12,360 likes so far.

‘A WOMAN WHO HASN’T WATCHED FREE-TO-AIR TV SINCE 2008 FOUND IT ASTONISHING THAT SHE COULD IDENTIFY MORE THAN 90% OF THE CELEBRITIES AT THIS YEAR’S LOGIE AWARDS. THIS LEADS HER TO BELIEVE THAT AUSTRALIA’S MEDIA INDUSTRY MIGHT BE REPEATING SIMILAR FACES OR CONTENT OVER TIME.’

The satirical story suggested that Anita Shafe, who is 35 years old, was not familiar with many famous personalities from around the world. However, this lack of recognition didn’t seem to be a problem for her.

In today’s Australian media environment, they seldom provide opportunities for anyone who was born after 1985 to showcase their talents, the satirical tale implied.

‘It’s genuinely pathetic how accurate this is,’ one person commented.

Many performers who are considered successful seem to repeat the same acts they did twenty years ago, even though their prime may have passed.” The focus here is on the repetitive nature of their performances and the possibility that they might no longer be at their peak.

‘Nobody born after 1998 is allowed on TV,’ another viewer commented.

Following the broadcast, there was a wave of criticism as numerous viewers expressed their disappointment over the perceived dullness of the awards ceremony.

Every year, I can’t help but jump on social media platforms, expressing my disbelief that the Logies still hold any significance in today’s entertainment landscape. It seems as though everyone else is joining me, criticizing this annual ceremony and questioning its relevance in the modern world.

One individual expressed, “There’s no clearer indication that free-to-air TV is fading away than the Logie Awards – a gathering of yesterday’s famous faces and unknown individuals discussing themselves.

‘It’s interesting that they continue to hold the Logies – an outdated medium honoring average talent #Logies.’ Another person commented.

Regardless of the criticism it faced online, the 2025 Logie Awards ended up being a hit with viewers.

During prime time on Sunday, it drew the largest audience, boasting a remarkable 1.425 million viewers across the nation.
