Sam Pang Wins Logie, Indigenous First | Australia News

Sam Pang stole the show with his Gold Logie win, delivering his trademark chaos and charm — even forgetting to thank everyone in his speech. Magda Szubanski, in full Sharon Strzelecki mode, handed him the award alongside host Robert Irwin, the youngest-ever Logies host who also nabbed the Bert Newton Award. The night celebrated big wins for acting legends like Brooke Satchwell and Simon Baker, and a historic moment as Deborah Mailman became the first Indigenous Australian inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame, honoring her parents and fellow Indigenous talent. Classic hits like “A Country Practice” and media icon Andrew Denton also got their due. Jelena Dokic claimed the new Bruce McAvaney Award, while a moving in memoriam paid tribute to stars like Johnny Young, who passed just days before the ceremony.
