22岁的罗伯特·欧文将担任第66届洛吉奖的主持人，成为该奖项历史上最年轻的主持人[1]。这场颁奖典礼定于8月16日星期日下午7点在Seven频道和7Plus播出[1]。欧文计划通过融合传统电视和年轻一代的审美来使洛吉奖重获关注，可能加入动物表演和舞蹈元素[1]。
欧文本人也是颁奖礼的焦点人物。他获得了金洛吉奖和伯特·牛顿奖提名[1]，成为首位获得金洛吉奖提名的野生动物保护主义者[1]。他在去年美国《与星共舞》比赛中获胜[1]，其搭档朱莉亚·莫里斯已获得第五次金洛吉奖提名[1]。
At just 22 years old, Robert Irwin will become the youngest host in the history of Australia's most prestigious television awards, the Logies.[1] The wildlife conservationist has ambitious plans to bridge traditional television with the aesthetic preferences of younger audiences, potentially incorporating animal performances and dance elements into the ceremony.[1]
Irwin takes over the hosting duties after Sam Pang declined to continue in the role following three years at the helm.[1] The 66th TV Week Logie Awards will air on Sunday, August 16 at 7 p.m. on the Seven network and 7Plus.[1] Beyond his hosting responsibilities, Irwin himself is a notable presence at the ceremony, having received nominations for both the Gold Logie and the Bert Newton Award—making him the first wildlife conservationist to be nominated for the Gold Logie.[1] His television partner Julia Morris has secured her fifth Gold Logie nomination.[1] Irwin's television career was recently bolstered by his victory on the American version of "Dancing with the Stars" last year.[1]
