The field for the 2025 gold Logie has been revealed, and it’s dominated by women – with Lego Masters host Hamish Blake the only man in the running.

Could this finally be the year for Ten’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! host Julia Morris? Or will Seven’s Sonia Kruger add to her Logies haul?

They hosts are vying for television glory against the ABC’s Lisa Millar, Lynne McGranger from Home and Away, MasterChef Australia‘s Poh Ling Yeow, and A Current Affair host Ally Langdon.

At the announcement of the nominees at the Sydney Opera House on Monday, presenter Tara Rushton momentarily forgot to announce the final nominee, Kruger, who was waiting in the wings to be called to the stage.

“I am never going to live this down, I’m surrounded by my idols,” said Rushton, apologising.

After the announcement, Blake said that as the only male nominee, he actually didn’t want to win.

“It would not be a great look if I won, so figure out your favourite lady, and get right behind her,” he said.

Meanwhile, Millar told the hosts of her former show, ABC News Breakfast, she was stoked to be nominated.

“I’m tickled pink. I’m absolutely thrilled. I cannot get the smile off my face! I am going to lean in to this, I’m going to enjoy every single minute of it,” she said.

“Also, talk about News Breakfast kicking some you know what. We had Tony Armstrong and now we have got me! So I think this says something about News Breakfast as well, don’t you reckon?”

Armstrong has won two Logies and was nominated for the gold Logie in 2024.

A new award named for five-time gold Logie winner Ray Martin will be presented in 2025 – the Ray Martin Award for Most Popular News or Public Affairs Reporter.

Martin, a veteran Australian journalist and presenter – whose career highlights include 60 Minutes, A Current Affair, Four Corners and Midday – will present the award in his name. He has also won nine other Logies.

Voting for the popular awards opened Monday morning, with the ballot for the gold Logie open during the awards presentation itself.

The Logies ceremony will be held at The Star Sydney and broadcast live on Seven on Sunday, August 3.
