2013 Logie Awards - Brynne Edelsten

This. Is. Amazing. It's a catastrofug. It is also a cross between Janice the Muppet and Nicodemus from The Secret of NIMH.

IT HAUNTS ME. As does Nicodemus, actually. Spoiler: It ends badly. THAT SCENE. I couldn't deal.

Speaking of things that end badly: this dress again. This woman may be the bravest person in the world.

Also, her purse is shaped like a holster and is also a bracelet. Naturally.

Brynne Edelsten, March 2013: Ellen DeGeneres Welcome Party

Well, I'm sure Ellen didn't feel truly welcomed by Australia until Brynne arrived at the party dressed like Jessica Simpson if she hit her head on the toilet and woke up thinking she was Katy Perry.

Brynne Edelsten, Nov 2012

This is EXACTLY what I wore to the Santa Anita Derby! What a delicious coincidence.

Brynne Edelsten, Oct 2012

Our YA publisher, a division of Little, Brown, is called Poppy. And if I had the means, I would make them all six-inch statues of Brynne in this outfit to put on their desks. Although I want them to keep publishing us, so maybe... no, wait, I still think it's the gift of a lifetime.

Brynne Edelsten: Nov 2011

Heidi Klum is SO jealous of this outfit right now.

Brynne Edelsten: July 2011

And Solange Knowles clearly regrets not wearing this back when she was a crackpot in, like, 2010. Also: WHAT COLOR IS SMEARED ON HER BODY. Did she accidentally use Easter egg dye as bronzer?

Brynne Edelsten: March 2011

If you put pants with this, it would make the MOST resplendent men's figure-skating costume.

Brynne Edelsten: October 2010

She REALLY is Australia's own Snooki Kardashisimpson, isn't she?

Brynne Edelsten: Sept 2010

I am just giggling nonsensically at this point.

Brynne Edelsten: Sept 2012

It's apt that your skirt looks like a ticker-tape parade, Brynne, because indeed you should take a celebratory bow. You are what the Peldons used to be: a cheerfully poorly clad mascot for Fug Nation, when we need a smile in bleak times of Bieberdom.

Logies -- And Historical -- Fugtacular Fug Carpet: Brynne Edelsten
We have featured Brynne Edelsten before, but if you need a primer: She's the cheerful Ameristralian (Oklahoma-born; wed to an Australian medical magnate) who overtans, underdresses, has a reality show called My Bedazzled Life, had Jason Alexander narrate her wedding DVD despite the fact that he'd never met them, and got Fran Drescher to her $3 million wedding even though she hadn't met them either. So basically, she seems like a hoot. If she were over here on Real Housewives of Tulsa, we'd probably be rolling our eyes and screaming bloody Kardashian, yet applied to Australia's shores something about her terrible taste becomes hilariously charming. I mean, this is a parade of TOTAL ATROCITIES, and yet also so cheerul. It is IMPOSSIBLE for me to view it and get depressed about humanity, the way most of the serious Fug Madness contenders make me feel. Anyway, Brynne whipped out a tasty treat at the Logies again, but despite the fact that her archive on GFY is bigger than you'd expect, there's also a ton of stuff she's worn over the years that we haven't shown. So here it is, a Brynne Edelsten special -- a.k.a., possibly the best, tannest slideshow ever. [Photos: Getty]
