Six women are up for the Gold Logie
The 2025 field for the coveted prize has been revealed, and it's dominated by women, up against only one man, Hamish Blake.
The Lego Masters host says he doesn't want to win, as victory would be a PR disaster.
"It would not be a great look if I won, so figure out your favourite lady and get right behind her," he said.
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?
These 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 name the final nominee Sonia 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.
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.
The nominees are Nine's Ally Langdon, Tara Brown, and Peter Overton, the ABC's David Speers and Sarah Ferguson, and Seven's Michael Usher.
The ABC has received dozens of nominations, including for comedian Guy Montgomery for most popular new talent.
Two-time Logie winner, the children's cartoon Bluey is up for another award for best children's program.
Netflix show Apple Cider Vinegar, which tells the story of conwoman Belle Gibson, received a massive eight nominations.
Voting for the popular awards opened on Monday, with the ballot for the Gold Logie remaining open during the awards presentation itself.
The Logies will be held at The Star Sydney and broadcast live on Seven on Sunday August 3.

Julian McMahon: Beloved Australian actor dies, aged 56, weeks after WA-shot The Surfer airs
Just weeks after audiences witnessed one of Julian McMahon's finest performances, opposite Nicolas Cage in the WA-shot psychological thriller The Surfer, the Australian actor has died from cancer aged 56. Wife Kelly Paniagua confirmed the star died on Wednesday in Clearwater, Florida, after a private battle with the disease but did not go into specifics. 'With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,' she said. 'Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible.' One of McMahon's last interviews was with The West Australian, and the son of former Prime Minister Billy McMahon spoke in glowing terms of his experience making The Surfer with Cage in Yallingup in 2023. '(It's) some of the most beautiful and spectacular countryside in the world, so a big part of this experience was actually the opportunity to live in such a wonderful place, for a period of time,' he said. Playing masculinity guru Scally in The Surfer, McMahon not only matched Cage's trademark intensity, the Aussie actor was often the most magnetic presence in the scene, which hinted at a potential career resurgence after a few years out of the spotlight. But hindsight casts a very different light on one of his last public appearances, at the film's US premiere at South by Southwest in Texas, where the star looked considerably more gaunt than his character in the movie. His death brings an end to a fascinating career of highs and, ultimately, unfulfilled potential, which began with a 150-episode stint on Home and Away as main character Ben Lucini. He met future wife Dannii Minogue in Summer Bay, and even starred in the music video of the singer's hit, This Is It, recorded as a tribute to their relationship. The marriage lasted 18 months. By that point, McMahon was living in America and trying to make it big on US network television, starting with a 22-episode character arc on the NBC soap opera, Another World. McMahon parlayed that success into his first leading role on American TV, as the arrogant, womanising plastic surgeon Dr. Christian Troy in six seasons of Nip/Tuck, for which he earned a Golden Globe nomination in 2005. The actor's biggest film role came playing the villainous Victor Von Doom, AKA Dr Doom, in the 2005 superhero movie The Fantastic Four and its 2007 sequel, Rise of the Silver Sequel. Charmed co-star Rose McGowan shared a tribute to McMahon on Instagram, posting an illustration of the Aussie with the words, 'Oh Julian, you force of brilliance, wild talent and humour. For you, your family and loving fans all over the world, I pray comfort'. Former Mr Fantastic, British star Ioan Gruffudd, posted his own tribute. 'Even though we played each other's nemeses, there was always so much lightness and laughter working together. Every encounter with him was a joy,' Gruffudd wrote. Speaking to The West in May, the actor gave no indication he was in a fight for his life, and even dreamed of returning to WA. 'Take me back to Yallingup, if you don't mind,' he said. McMahon was born in Sydney on July 27, 1968, and is survived by Paniagua, and his daughter, Madison, from a previous marriage.

From Summer Bay to Hollywood heartthrob: The meteoric rise of Julian McMahon's career as he tragically passes away at 56
Julian McMahon was a household name in America the time of his death, having had a career trajectory that saw him on some of the Hollywood's biggest shows less than a decade after leaving Sydney for La La Land. Despite a childhood as a political blueblood, the actor never followed his former Prime Minister father, William McMahon, into a life of politics or being a Liberal Party powerbroker. Instead, he found a home in Hollywood, where he was to become one of Australia's biggest exports on popular American TV shows, like Profiler, Charmed, and Nip/Tuck throughout the 2000s. Born in Sydney, McMahon always showed an interest in acting. Despite studying law at the University of Sydney, McMahon's natural good looks saw him booked on a number of modelling gigs. He became a working model across fashion capitals London, Paris and Milan until his father's death in 1988, when he relocated back to Australia from the hub of the European modelling shoots. McMahon wandered into acting in the late 1980s, first appearing on the Seven Network soap, The Power, The Passion, as Kane Edmonds, in 1989. He next moved to Home and Away, starring as Ben Lucini from 1990 to 1991. Following his stint in Summer Bay, McMahon instantly became a household name. 'He worked at it (his acting),' 7NEWS Entertainment Editor, Peter Ford, told Sunrise on Saturday. 'He went and took lessons. He wanted to be good, and he became really good.' McMahon famously married Dannii Minogue in 1994, after the pair met on the Home and Away set. They split just a year later, in one of Australia's most ill-fated celebrity romances. 'That was doomed to failure, unfortunately, because of Lady Sonia McMahon, his mum, did not approve at all of that marriage,' Ford said of the young couple. McMahon first took his acting stateside in 1993, appearing on the NBC soap, Another World, in nothing but a speedo. However, it wasn't until he landed in Hollywood full-time that he became a big name. McMahon first appeared in the hit NBC series Profiler, starring as Detective John Grant in the crime drama, from 1996 to 2000. He then got a big break as Cole Turner in the Aaron Spelling hit, Charmed, from 2000 to 2003. The actor then got another big break starring on Nip/Tuck as troubled Dr. Christian Troy, from 2003 to 2010. The role of Christian is considered McMahon's most widely successful job on American TV. '(After the) daytime soap (Another World), ... He then began quite a good run of hit shows with Charmed and with Nip/Tuck. He really kept working constantly,' Ford said. 'He never became what you would call an A-list star. But it was a good, solid career. 'He made a lot of money.' McMahon's shows Charmed and Nip/Tuck both won Emmy Awards. He was also nominated for a Best Actor gong at the Golden Globes for his portrayal of morally complex Christian Troy in Nip/Tuck. The actor ventured into films around this time, starring in Chasing Sleep in 2000, Premonition, alongside Sandra Bullock, in 2007, Red, alongside Bruce Willis in 2010, and Faces in the Crowd opposite Milla Jovovich in 2011. He also played Victor Von Doom in the two films of the Fantastic Four franchise. McMahon headed back Down Under for Swinging Safari in 2018. He starred opposite big Australian names like former sister-in-law Kylie Minogue, Guy Pearce, and Asher Keddie for the flick. The actor then travelled back stateside to appear in CBS crime drama FBI: Most Wanted. He also made appearances in the other related series FBI and spin-off, FBI International. He exited the show in 2022. 'It was a great career,' Ford said. More recently, McMahon had been spending time with wife. 'It doesn't seem he's been out and about much,' Ford said. 'There's been no talk of him doing any more work. 'So, I think as Kelly has said, he wanted to (deal with his illness) privately.'
