Default Who is Australia' leading entertainment personality?

An industry event in my industry claims the MC is Australia's leading entertainment personality.

Who do you think deserves this title?

I'll reveal the answer after the Geelong Hawthorn game tomorrow night.

Go Cats.

The best-known Australian entertainers by the US (currently) are probably Hugh Jackman, Nicole Kidman, and Eric Bana.

Colin Hay is performing in concert here next week. Is he good to see solo?

"Entertainment personality" descriptor and Geelong footy club reference makes me think Sam Newman?

Though I'm not sure I'd describe him as Australia's leading entertainment personality

I think I've heard Bert Newton described in similar terms before...

Tell the industrious person at the industry event that your industry is having that is a dumb answer.

Depends on which host (master) and at which ceremony ?

The claimed leading Australian Entertainment Personality is...............

...................

...................

...................

Richard Wilkins.


A fairly creative use of the term, if you ask me.
