Gallery: 2013 Magazine Awards
By

A good night was had by all—or at least most—at the rejuvenated Magazine Awards. Ben Hurley kept the crowd entertained, MPA chair John Baker was typically bullish about the future of the magazine industry, Dr Sarah Sandley was acknowledged for a stellar 20 year career, Bauer’s titles were a welcome addition to proceedings and no-one fell off the Q Theatre stage. Speech of the night went to Rochelle Gillespie from OH!Baby, who implored everyone to keep drinking, make a few more babies and buy their magazine. Plus: TVNZ Blacksand’s crafty, Origami-inspired intro vid.

Last night at the Hopetoun Alpha, a bunch of finely tuned, very well-dressed and alcohol-infused athletes from the marcomms sector took part in the 2013 Global Beer Pong Championship of New Zealand Advertising, an event put on by MediaWorks Radio and supported by Faux Beer. And it was team NWA (Gerhard Simanke and Mark Banbrook from The Radio Bureau) took out the title after a fiercely contested final against Team Cock (Simon Teagle and Rachel Leyland, DraftFCB).

New Zealand goes a bit funny when famous folk come for a visit. It’s that classic Kiwi combo of pride and self-doubt. And it was no different when Eva Longoria popped in recently to spruik some of her perfume, cut the ribbon on The Shopping Channel and answer a few questions at an event put on by Woman’s Day and L’Oreal. The security was almost Obama-level, with pre-event checks and phones handed in at the door, but with a bit of baksheesh we managed to get our hands on collection of glamour shots from the night. So fill your boots. And eyes.
