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. Ahead of the 61st TV Week Logie Awards on Sunday, Daily Mail Australia looks back on some of the trashiest moments in the awards show's history. Pictured is Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson hosting the Today show after the Logies in 2009 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. Big night? On 2009, Karl went down in Logies history for reporting from Melbourne's Crown Casino looking visibly worse for wear after the Logies, and years later admitted he was 'smashed' during the live TV appearance Cheeky: A year later, he caused a stir once again when he thanked his then-wife Cassandra Thorburn's 'a**e' while accepting the Most Popular Presenter award and the Gold Logie '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. In happier times: Karl and Cassandra are pictured on the red carpet at the 2011 Logie Awards A year later, he caused a stir once again when he thanked his then-wife Cassandra Thorburn's 'a**e' while accepting the Most Popular Presenter award and the Gold Logie. 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. Who could forget? 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.

The rugby player looked rather bleary eyed as he cuddled up to his glamorous sisters in the early hours of Monday morning, having partied the night away with fellow celebrities at The Star Gold Coast The rugby player looked rather bleary eyed as he cuddled up to his glamorous sisters in the early hours of Monday morning, having partied the night away with fellow celebrities at The Star Gold Coast. Looking in giddy spirits, the larrikin sportsman wrapped his arms around his three sisters as they laughed and smiled for the paparazzi. Back in 1998, A Current Affair's Tracy Grimshaw also sparked controversy after attending the Logies, having accidently locked herself out of her hotel room completely nude. Whoops! Back in 1998, A Current Affair's Tracy Grimshaw also sparked controversy after attending the Logies, having accidently locked herself out of her hotel room completely nude. Pictured on the red carpet at the 2007 Logies She previously blamed the tequila shots she'd been doing with good friend James Packer as the catalyst for the embarrassing gaffe. Somehow everybody in the industry knew about it the next day, but it wasn't until 2013 that the incident made national headlines, after she divulged minor details to The Kyle & Jackie O Show. 'I locked myself out of my hotel room starkers. It was 3.45am and there was no-one in the hallway,' Tracy explained to News Corp last year. In her drunken state she'd mistaken the entry door for the bathroom door, thus explaining how she ended up in the hallway without her keys. 'It was 3.45am and there was no-one in the hallway': Somehow everybody in the industry knew about it the next day, but it wasn't until 2013 that the incident made national headlines, after she divulged minor details to The Kyle & Jackie O Show Tracy then cleared up the mystery regarding how she got back in and how the world suddenly knew about it the next day. 'I realised that the guest opposite [my hotel room] had The Australian delivered. Thank god it was a broadsheet and not the Herald Sun!' she joked. The TV personality said she then immediately covered her modesty with the paper. In 1999, comedian and TV presenter Andrew Denton famously sat on James Packer's lap in 1999 when he was tasked with hosting the ceremony. Perching on a bewildered James' knee, Andrew said: 'I'll sit on your lap and I'd like you to drink this glass of water if you could while I talk'. Remember this? Comedian and TV presenter Andrew Denton famously sat on James Packer's lap in 1999 when he was tasked with hosting the ceremony Baffling display: Perching on a bewildered James' knee, Andrew said: 'I'll sit on your lap and I'd like you to drink this glass of water if you could while I talk' 'Would you mind just drinking that James?' he asked, much to the amusement of the giggling audience. Then, peering down the camera lens, he clarified: 'I'd just like to say all the opinions expressed by me tonight are mine and not those of the Packer family.' But Tracy isn't the only media personality to have suffered a clothing-related faux pas in the past. In 2004, Sophie Monk made headlines when she dramatically passed out as she walked the red carpet for Australian TV's night of nights, eventually having to be carried out of the event. Dramatic: In 2004, Sophie Monk made headlines when she dramatically passed out as she walked the red carpet for Australian TV's night of nights, eventually having to be carried out of the event. Pictured at the 2004 Logie Awards Speaking to The Fix last year, Sophie revealed that the seeds of the incident were sewn when she realised she was 'too big' for her dress on the day of the awards. 'It was my own fault,' she told the publication. 'I was a little too big for the dress and they couldn't zip it up. So, they said: 'just go in the sauna and come out every 15 minutes, and do that for a while.' But, they didn't tell me to drink water.' Sophie added that the undue attention from her red carpet blunder took the limelight from that year's nominees. 'We look like Nicole and Tom... only reversed!' In 2006, US comedian Joan Rivers took to the stage with Today's entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins, and appeared to be in very high spirits indeed It's not just Australian celebrities that have caused controversy at the Logies, as many international stars have also made headlines over the years. In 2006, US comedian Joan Rivers took to the stage with Today's entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins, and appeared to be in very high spirits indeed. 'We look like Nicole and Tom... only reversed!' she said after being handed the microphone. She continued to make further jokes about former Hollywood couple Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise before barking, 'Grow up, Australia!', in a bid to liven up the crowd. When Richard tried to intervene, the Fashion Police star snapped back: 'Call me Ms Rivers, like you do in the United States'. She then gestured towards the audience, saying: 'They don't know who the s**t I am'.
