BOY GEORGE RED CARPET MIX-UP

Gold FM presenter Luke Bradnam has had an awkward moment on the red carpet with The Voice judge Boy George.

The chance Logies meeting initially left the radio star feeling confused.

“I just met Boy George on the red carpet and he said, ‘good to see you again’, but we’ve never met,” he said.

“At the end of our chat he called me Ash, I’m devastated - he mistook me for my twin brother!”

Usually it’d be the ladies getting ready to shave everything before taking to the red carpet - this afternoon it was Andy Lee’s turn.

The cute catchups did not feature MAFS self proclaimed villain Jessica Power who previously told the Gold Coast Bulletin she had been snubbed from the Logie Awards night, because she was a “liability”.

Gunner is MC’ing a live speed dating show at the Single & Ready 2 Mingle expo held at the Gold Coast Convention Centre in Broadbeach for two hours every day this weekend.
