Celia Pacquola has revealed she was given a telling off from Channel Seven after she dropped the F-bomb live on-air during the 2024 Logie Awards.
The TV star, 41, shocked fans when she made an X-rated comment while presenting alongside Luke McGregor at Sunday night’s star-studded awards ceremony.
She dropped the F-bomb live after noticing a glaring error on the autocue while the event was being broadcast live by Channel Seven.
‘The nominees for “Best Lead Actor in a Drama” are…that’s incorrect…no it’s not that (category), it’s the “Best Drama Program,”‘ Celia said of the mistake live on-air.
She shocked viewers by adding: ‘someone at Channel Seven has f**ked me’ while a pre-recorded package of the nominees began, eliciting much laughter in the room.
Appearing on KIIS FM’s Will and Woody just days after the ceremony, the Rosehaven star has admitted she was given a talking-to from a Channel Seven employee for her X-rated remark.
She said of her chat with a Seven representative: ‘They just went, “hey, I work at Channel Seven” and I was like, “sorry. But also, I don’t work for you!’
Celia went on to claim that the network threw her ‘under the bus’ with the mistake on the autocue, before confessing that she was ‘proud’ of her antics.

‘They threw me out under the bus! I just read it (the autocue), and you’re welcome for me giving the broadcast a little bit of sizzle,’ she said during Thursday’s show.
‘It was funny and it wasn’t my fault. I just read the thing.’
After footage of Celia’s F-bomb went viral on after the Logies, the media personality revealed that some of her fans have even suggested immortalising her statement.
‘I’ve been getting messages… people are like, “we’re gonna have it on a T-shirt!”,’ she quipped. ‘I’ve got a new catchphrase now!
‘Which is weird, because I’ve just gotten used to people saying, “thank God you’re here” when they saw me.
‘Now I’ve got to get used to people going, “Celia, someone on Channel Seven has f**ked me”.’
