Magda Szubanski Set for 2025 Logies Hall of Fame Induction

Australian comedy icon Magda Szubanski will be inducted into the TV Week Logies Hall of Fame, becoming only the fifth woman to receive this prestigious award since its inception in 1984. Szubanski, renowned for her role as Sharon Strzelecki in the hit sitcom Kath & Kim, has had a nearly four-decade-long career that includes notable work in television, film, and theatre, as well as advocacy for LGBTQIA+ rights. The award recognizes her outstanding and continued contribution to Australian television culture, including her influence on comedy and her efforts supporting marriage equality. Despite being diagnosed with stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma in May 2025, Szubanski remains hopeful and is receiving world-class care. The 65th TV Week Logie Awards, where she will be honored, is noted for its significant focus on female talent, with women dominating the Gold Logie nominations and comedian Sam Pang hosting the event. Szubanski's induction celebrates both her artistic achievements and her impact on Australian society.
