Best and worst-dressed on the 2019 ARIAs red carpet

Crazy outfits, red carpet stunts, live animals and a whole lot of flesh on display — this year’s ARIAs red carpet was wild.

The 2019 ARIA Awards have taken place at Sydney’s Star, with Guy Sebastian on hosting duties and Tones And I sweeping the prizes.

She performed at the event, along with Hilltop Hoods, Thelma Plum, The Teskey Brothers, Guy Sebastian and Hall of Fame inductees Human Nature.
