Channel Seven star Brian Taylor has raised eyebrows after blasting the 'arrogance' of Aussie TV stars who attended the Logies recently in Sydney.
Speaking on his Life of Brian podcast, the footy commentator didn't name any entertainment identities as he 'didn't want to embarrass anyone' - but Taylor is unlikely to be invited to the red carpet event in 2026 and beyond following his vicious rant.
A polarising character himself, Taylor felt some A-listers were 'caught up in the moment' before labelling some aspects of the gala evening a 'zoo.'
'I wouldn't say the Logies is everyone's choice of event — I think a lot of people try and avoid events like this,' Taylor said.
'I go, not because we (Channel Seven) are going to win anything because we never win anything and we probably should.
'I go to observe people and see how they are acting. It's fascinating to see it up close.

Speaking on his Life of Brian podcast, the footy commentator didn't mince his words, also stating he couldn't believe how much some stars relished the red carpet

'The actors, they are so caught up in the moment. Arrogance is easy to find. It is (just) unbelievable.
'I'm not going to give any examples because I don't want to embarrass anyone. (But) the way they walk around and strut around.
'I thought we as sports people (were egotistical), but not in comparison to these guys.
'(On the red carpet) it is a zoo... the women just love it, they can't get enough of it. You've got to see it to believe it.'
Taylor, who attended the ritzy event at The Star with colleagues Kane Cornes and Abbey Holmes, was impressed by host Sam Pang.
He gave Pang '10 out of 10' when it came to MC duties.
Cornes labelled the Logies - where he presented an award on stage with Channel 10's Tara Rushton - a 'different experience.'
'I felt under-dressed compared to everyone else and have never been more out of my comfort zone,' he said on SEN.
'I wanted a selfie with Alf (Ray Meagher from Home and Away) but I wasn't brave enough in the end.
'It was a good night, we had a great table.'
