The Logies' trashiest moments revealed ahead of TV's night of nights 

The Logie Awards will celebrate its 61st anniversary on the Gold Coast this Sunday.

And ahead of the ceremony, Daily Mail Australia looks back on some of the trashiest moments in the awards show's history. 

From Nick Cummins' wild partying to Tracy Grimshaw's 'nudie run', there's a reason why the Logies is considered the loosest night in showbusiness.

Perhaps the Logies' most memorable controversy occurred when Karl Stefanovic hosted the Today show drunk the morning after 2009's ceremony. 

Karl reporting from Melbourne's Crown Casino looking visibly worse for wear, and even confessed on air that he hadn't had any sleep.

In a 2014 interview, the journalist admitted he was 'smashed' and that it would have gone unnoticed if it wasn't for the popularity of YouTube.

'This was the first Logies when stuff really started working on the Internet,' Karl said.

'I remember seeing it on Today Tonight and going, "Oh God". I really was drunk... or at least I certainly looked and sounded drunk.'  

In 2010, Karl was banned from the bar and made to work as a red carpet correspondent to prevent a repeat performance.

He said: 'My beautiful wife Cass, who lets me go on these weird and wonderful excursions around the world... a great influence in my life. And she's also got the best a**e I've ever seen,' Karl said as the crowd laughed.

Another controversy for the memory books occurred in 2018, when former Bachelor and Wallabies star Nick 'The Honey Badger' raised eyebrows with a rather animated public display.
