Sunrise Fans Criticize Reporter’s Outfit: ‘Not a Good Look’

Channel Seven viewers have slammed Weekend Sunrise presenter Sally Bowrey over her choice of footwear.

The criticism came after the popular journalist was enjoying some playful banter with host Monique Wright at the end of the breakfast show on Sunday.

During the cheeky segment, Monique was seen lying down on the couch with her legs resting on Sally’s lap while the newsreader put her feet up on the Sunrise set’s coffee table, showing off a pair of chunky slip-ons.

‘Sandals? Not a good look,’ one critic on industry blog Media Spy said as they shared the photo to the platform.

Other keyboard warriors on the thread appeared to be confused about which of the Sunrise stars was under fire for the fashion selections.

Who, Sally?’ asked one viewer, who went on to defend the breakfast TV star and correctly identified her footwear as closed-toe clogs.

‘Given her feet would be behind the desk for 99% of the show, not sure it really matters.’

Other on the thread felt that Monique’s choice of red heels was the focus of the original criticism.

‘Hmm interesting,’ added another.

‘Either way, not sure either could be considered “not a good look,”‘ they said.

It comes after Sunrise weatherman Sam Mac recently dialled up the cringe factor in a very awkward exchange with host Natalie Barr.

The gaffe occurred when Natalie and co-host Matt Shirvington were interviewing Sydney Swans AFL star Isaac Heeney.

As the interview was wrapping up, Isaac bizarrely referred to Matt as ‘daddy Shirvo.’

The odd nickname piqued Natalie’s interest, who asked her co-star: ‘Did he just call you daddy Shirvo?’

Looking sheepish, Matt refused to reveal the story behind the unique nickname, offering an evasive: ‘It might be.’

Nat then asked if the name was uttered for a dare, and Matt’s response only raised more questions than it answered.

‘I am not going to quote Donald Trump,’ he replied with a grin.

Keeping the joke going, Nat then threw to the affable weatherman with: ‘Let’s go to daddy Sam.’

Sam, who was reporting from Akaroa, New Zealand, took things a little too far with a response that even he realised was beyond the pale.

‘Thank you, mummy Nat,’ he said, before almost instantly regretting his choice of words.

‘Oh, that felt awful, sorry,’ he said. 

‘I feel sick in my mouth saying it. I was just trying to run with it – doesn’t quite work though, does it?’

Natalie wholeheartedly agreed with Sam’s assessment, offering an emphatic: ‘That did not work,’ before Sam apologised to his co-star.
