Brooke Boney ‘not feeling well’ on Today after wild Logies

Brooke Boney has been stitched up by her Today co-hosts, who said she was partying two hours before going on-air and that she “should be in hospital.”

And the Gold Logie goes to …

Today entertainment reporter Brooke Boney appeared a little under the weather on-air this morning after a wild night at the Logies.

While it’s usually Karl Stefanovic who is known for being hungover on the breakfast program following TV’s night of nights, it was Boney who took the reins today after she was “still going hard on the dance floor” in the wee hours.

Boney, 34, struggled through an interview with Jessica Mauboy earlier in the show, with Stefanovic dubbing her an “absolute trooper” for pressing on.

Things continued to go downhill later when Boney interviewed Andy Lee, prefacing: “There might not be razzle or dazzle this morning.”

Co-host Allison Langdon then divulged a little more detail, revealing Boney “stayed up latest out of everybody” and that she was “still going hard on the dance floor” when she left.

“I will give that girl a good talking to,” Langdon joked.

Stefanovic added: “Most other people would be in hospital this morning.”

Karl and Ally said Brooke stayed ‘the latest’ at Sunday’s Logies.

But it seems Langdon also had a late night alongside Boney, as she took to Instagram with a photo of the duo still in their ball gowns just two hours before going on-air.

“Those feels when you know you’re on air for Brekky tv in two hours!!!!,” Langdon captioned the photo.

While her co-hosts seemed to be implying it was a very late night for Boney, an Instagram post from early this morning told a different story.

Boney posted a shot of herself in bed with a burger watching Hamish Blake’s Gold Logie acceptance speech, which went to air well before midnight, seemingly suggesting to her followers her night ended before the ceremony itself did.

It’s become somewhat of a breakfast TV tradition for at least one of the team to be worse for wear the morning after the Logies.

It’s largely proved to be Stefanovic over the years, with his most infamous moment in 2009 when he was accused of “still being drunk”.

During the program in question, Stefanovic was slurring his words, abandoning reports and breaking into fits of laughter, with his behaviour even becoming the subject of a Today Tonight report.

But in a 2014 interview, Stefanovic said he had no regrets about his on-air antics.

“It wasn’t any different to any other year – we all get smashed at the Logies and go to work the next day; we’d done it for years and years. But [2009] was the first Logies when stuff really started working on the internet,” he said.

“I was worried about it initially, but I think it broke down a barrier for me. It’s that age-old theory in TV that if you haven’t harmed anyone, the public might find it funny.”
