Some sage words from Russell Crowe

By Jessica Riga

AACTA President Russell Crowe is giving a great speech, can I just say. Here's a snippet:

"As a lot of you in this room know, the perception of glamour is merely a marketing tool that we take advantage of when it suits us.

"The reality of a creative life is workdays that never finish, crippling imposter syndrome, and the juggling act of trying to find a way to make your living in a gig economy.

"You'll have your own version of a challenging day."

Also, some of you are wondering what AACTA stands for, it's the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards.

The AACTAs are starting

By Jessica Riga

We're launching straight into a red carpet montage.

We just heard from Leah Purcell, who said along with starring and directing The Drover's Wife The Legend of Molly Johnson, she also "did my own fight stunts."

Elvis star Olivia DeJonge says it's "really, really special" to be back in Australia.

Red carpet host Angela Bishop just asked Chris Hemsworth how he felt when he was told he'd be getting the Trailblazer Award tonight.

"I got a text from Russell [Crowe] about it. And I said, "Oh, my God, that's amazing!" Then I said, "Would you present it to me?" He said, "Absolutely." So I'm honoured from every angle."
