<v Speaker 1>at tad dusty gals, aren't we.

0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:12.520
<v Speaker 2>Some of us more dusty than others. Yeah, Laura did

0:00:12.520 --> 0:00:15.200
<v Speaker 2>a smoke bomb at the Logis last night before it ended,

0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 2>only because my dress was so tired I couldn't breathe.

0:00:17.640 --> 0:00:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, with a lot going on at the Logans and

0:00:19.400 --> 0:00:20.880
<v Speaker 1>if you missed it, this is the moment everyone is

0:00:20.920 --> 0:00:24.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about this morning and probably should say this afternoon.

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 3>This afternoon, and the winner of the twenty twenty three

0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Gold Logi goes too, Sonya Kruger.

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:41.480
<v Speaker 4>This is so weird. I'd like to thank God aka

0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 4>James Warburton, who had the brilliant idea of stealing a

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.200
<v Speaker 4>successful format from Channel nine and putting it on seven.

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:50.280
<v Speaker 4>I want'd done that before.

0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.560
<v Speaker 3>That's genius.

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 4>My family and if my dad was here he would

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 4>just be so proud.

0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>And oh it's Sandya Kravy.

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:03.920
<v Speaker 3>I sign up.

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:06.480
<v Speaker 4>Congratulations, what a moment.

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm feeling just as dusty as you guys are too.

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.640
<v Speaker 2>How does it feel waking up? Today in bed next

0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:16.720
<v Speaker 2>to a gold LOGI kissing it you.

0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 3>It's weird about it is that you forget right because

0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 3>you go to sleep and you wake up and then

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:24.120
<v Speaker 3>you go, oh my god, what happened last night? And

0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 3>then it all comes flooding back to you. So I

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 3>kept putting it down too at the party, and I'd

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 3>walk away and then I'd forget where I put it

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:36.720
<v Speaker 3>and people are like, hey, you've got your logis. So yeah,

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:39.160
<v Speaker 3>it was. It was a crazy night.

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe you found time to do this interview

0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 2>now that you're a logo in a gold logo in

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:45.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't. I thought you'd wear the little people now.

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, right, absolutely doesn't changes at all. What's funny

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 3>is that by that time last night, because it was

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 3>getting quite late and I've been working since eight in

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 3>the morning, I was really quite delirious at that point,

0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 3>and I was so tired I vagued out. While Daryl

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.640
<v Speaker 3>was speaking, I was imagining a cheeseburger and fries in

0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:15.080
<v Speaker 3>my room, and also getting my dress off because you know,

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:17.519
<v Speaker 3>you know what it's like when you're uncomfortable, You're in

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:20.240
<v Speaker 3>high heels, and you just want to get comfortable and

0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 3>then when he read out my name, I was like,

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:24.839
<v Speaker 3>oh no, because I was so unprepared.

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.760
<v Speaker 2>You don't know that your reaction?

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Do not believe it?

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 3>Are you?

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Surely you knew that on your son, your campaign, We

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:35.840
<v Speaker 1>had you on this show. Your campaign harder than Joe Biden.

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.640
<v Speaker 3>I know, because well, you know, like people do you

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 3>do kind of look at sports Bet. Well you don't

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 3>look at sports Bet, but the the Daily Male reports

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:45.800
<v Speaker 3>and all whoever reports, and so you kind of see

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.960
<v Speaker 3>what the odds are you well, and Hamish is just

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:52.559
<v Speaker 3>you know, he's one of those guys. He's immensely likable,

0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 3>and I just thought it would be Hamish. If it

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 3>wasn't Hamish, it would probably be Lea Sales from the ABC,

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 3>or or Sean mccaloff, who's just a you know, comedic genius.

0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:07.359
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, so no, I was not prepared.

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>No, son, what I like you said, you were kind

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 1>of disassociating by the end, probably for the best because

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.480
<v Speaker 1>that Darryl Summer's bit that he did about the I

0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:19.080
<v Speaker 1>mean I was hoping I was imagining that, but it

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of felt a little a little flat. I mean,

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:23.679
<v Speaker 1>you love Darryl, you work with him on Dancing with

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the Stars. I mean, what was that? Did you know

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:26.519
<v Speaker 1>he was going to do that bit where he was

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.040
<v Speaker 1>actioning off the Gold LOGI no.

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.639
<v Speaker 3>I had no idea what was going on. I think

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:33.079
<v Speaker 3>it was a thing like the rest of the room

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:35.640
<v Speaker 3>was a little bit confused by what was happening, and

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 3>because everybody was tired. And I, look, I hadn't had

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.119
<v Speaker 3>I think I'd had like one glass of champagne all night,

0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:44.920
<v Speaker 3>so I was pretty sober. But you know a few

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:46.960
<v Speaker 3>people in there had had a few more drinks than that,

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 3>so you know, for them it would have been doubly confusing.

0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 3>What is happening here? Can we not just get on

0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 3>with the show? Because by that stage, that's why I said,

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.880
<v Speaker 3>of the end, let's just go party, because I knew

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 3>everybody wanted to, you know, high tail it out and

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 3>just have a good time.

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Sonya is, You're first female winner of the Logos in

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 2>seven years, which is crazy. It's been seven years since

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.400
<v Speaker 2>we've had a female win. I mean, I know you

0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 2>saying that it was unexpected to you, but you also

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 2>have a little daughter, and I just think, like what

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:20.839
<v Speaker 2>legacy that leaves for her? What does it mean to

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:22.800
<v Speaker 2>you that you got to win this amazing award.

0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what it actually really means a lot?

0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:30.159
<v Speaker 3>And on Friday last week, I think, just before we

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.800
<v Speaker 3>sort of started preparation for the logies, we have a

0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:37.240
<v Speaker 3>WhatsApp mum's group, and so I said out a message,

0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:39.719
<v Speaker 3>so hey, guys, this is like, this is like a

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 3>shameless plug. Please vote for me. But the reason I

0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.720
<v Speaker 3>want to do this is because it's been eight years

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:51.159
<v Speaker 3>since a woman won. And yeah, I think it's twenty

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 3>fifteen when Carrie won. And let's do it. Let's show

0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:57.280
<v Speaker 3>the girls that we can do this. We can get

0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 3>this done, you know. And those months they gal they

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.680
<v Speaker 3>got in contact with their contact and I swear that

0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 3>campaign is taken over by the WhatsApp mum's groups. So good, yes,

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 3>And you know what, the girls at school and maybe

0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 3>this morning I face timed her with the with the

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 3>LOGI and I was picking her up and I'll take

0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.160
<v Speaker 3>it to school so she can show her friends like

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.600
<v Speaker 3>that means so much to them, and you know it does.

0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 3>If you can, if you can help for me, if

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 3>I can help another little girl somewhere, think, oh, one day,

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, I can grow up and achieve my dream

0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:37.320
<v Speaker 3>whatever that is, you know, whether it's becoming a you know,

0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 3>a surgeon, or whether it's becoming an astronaut or whatever

0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:43.720
<v Speaker 3>it might be. That anything is possible, and I think

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.320
<v Speaker 3>that's that's the greatest thing about it, you know.

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:48.240
<v Speaker 1>For me, I can't wait for Sonya to pull up

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 1>at mum pick up and just have the gold logging

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.480
<v Speaker 1>on the bottom. Then they're going to be like, we

0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 1>made this happen. Let's share it, Sonya.

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 2>I want to know that.

0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Where do you put it?

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:57.920
<v Speaker 2>Where does the gold logo go when you get it home?

0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Like does it become a book? And what happens with it?

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Look, I think it will actually live in Maggie's bedroom.

0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:07.720
<v Speaker 3>She claims a lot of my stuff. Does it with

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.640
<v Speaker 3>you guys too? She just takes my stuff and all

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.800
<v Speaker 3>of a sudden it's hers, Like, you know, now she

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:14.840
<v Speaker 3>wants she's trying to take my laptop. I'm like, I

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:18.160
<v Speaker 3>actually need it for work. Somebody doing you can't have that.

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 3>So it's I'm pretty sure she will want to put

0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 3>on her bookshelf in her bedroom, and I think it

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 3>would look actually quite pretty there amongst all the squishies. So,

0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:32.480
<v Speaker 3>you know, the beanie booths, Bannie Booths, squshes and a

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:33.640
<v Speaker 3>goal like you are.

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.479
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're knowing to be one of the hardest

0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 2>working in TV, and you were like you couldn't even

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 2>enjoy the night you were there working.

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.240
<v Speaker 1>You were hosting the Red Carpet with Chris.

0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Is it like a wedding day? You know how a

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 2>lot of brides don't even get to enjoy the day

0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:47.440
<v Speaker 2>because they're like they feel like they're.

0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Working the floor.

0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:50.279
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel like you get to enjoy it or

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 2>were you just.

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 3>No? And I feel like it's always been like that

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 3>for me for some reason, I've always ended up working

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.359
<v Speaker 3>at the logis the races are and I always end

0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.080
<v Speaker 3>up working at the races or something some other event

0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:06.479
<v Speaker 3>is on. I feel like I ended up working at it.

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.279
<v Speaker 3>So I think that's why they gave me the gold, because.

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:13.200
<v Speaker 1>They owe you so much over time, she because he's

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:15.240
<v Speaker 1>got a really good solid court case against us.

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Days off.

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:25.080
<v Speaker 1>We are so happy for you. We adore you. You've

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>been on the show many many times.

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 2>You're an inspiration to women and little girls out there.

0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:30.000
