The Project's Kate Langbroek breaks her silence on THAT Logies joke after it fell flat in awkward moment READ MORE: Kate Langbroek puts her Melbourne cottage under the hammer for as much as $2.7million By Kate Dennett For Daily Mail Australia Published: 06:25 BST, 24 August 2024 | Updated: 06:31 BST, 24 August 2024 e-mail View comments Kate Langbroek has broken her silence on her awkward joke which fell completely flat with the crowds at the 2024 TV Week Logie Awards . The Project star, 59, took to the stage at Sunday's ceremony alongside her friend Dave Lawson to present an award, but failed to impress during her hosting gig.
She made a joke on stage which failed to land with the celebrity audience and left them scratching their heads, prompting her to now defend her bizarre gag. Walking out on stage, Kate had said: 'Hello everybody and Dave Lawson, I didn't think you'd agree to do this because I didn't think you'd like strong women.' However, the joke elicited a mere few laughs from the crowds, while others could be heard mumbling in disapproval as it landed completely flat on the night.
Dave, 45, also appeared confused by the comment as he awkwardly broke the silence by saying: 'Mate, I'm very happy here Kate...
thank you for that.' Speaking on The Buck Up podcast , Kate has now explained the joke, doubling down as she insisted it was 'a good joke' despite its lukewarm reception on the night. She said the 'strong women' remark was a reference to the fact Dave is married to.
