Dave Hughes has opened the 79th Logie Awards with all guns blazing, taking a aim at TV chef George Calombaris for the pay scandal in his restaurants and Channel 7 boss Tim Worner over his affair.
A red faced Colombaris chuckled awkwardly as Logies host Hughes gave him a massive roast.
“He had a little bit of an issue where he underpaid the staff at his magnificent restaurants, $2.6 million,” Hughes said.
“But in his defence, he said he’s a chef, not an accountant. Apparently that’s why he cooked the books.”
Seven chief Worner was also skewered for his affair and legal battle with Seven staffer Amber Harrison.
“Channel 7 were working on a pilot of The Wrong Girl, that was starring their CEO Tim Worner, and that was more a reality show.
“He picked the wrong girl to mess with.”
After introducing Grant Denyer as a Gold Logie nominee, Hughes then went on to talk about another Grant, Olympian Grant Hackett, saying he was a whinger.
“See him on Instagram, put a selfie of himself with a black eye and said, “Look what my brother did,” he said.
“That’s what brothers do, Grant, be a dick and they give you a clip. Look on the bright side, you could be Kim Jong-un’s brother.”
