Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson staffer in hot water after stealing actress’ Logie at the star-studded event: ‘It’s just a dog act’
Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson staffer is in hot water after he stole actress and comedian Kitty Flanagan’s Logie at the star-studded awards last month.
The radio duo exposed their very own ‘Intern Pete’ Deppeler for swiping the Silver statuette at the exclusive gathering, which brought the party to a grinding halt.
In a series of photos released by KIIS FM on Thursday, Deppeler could be seen laughing as TV presenter Julia Zemiro took to the stage looking for the coveted statue.
Zemiro, 56, accepted the Silver Logie on behalf of her good friend Flanagan, 55, and was tasked with looking after the award during TV’s night-of-nights.
However she left the Logie unattended on the floor by a couch as she hit the dancefloor with her fellow television stars.

Deppeler, 39, took the opportunity to strike and quickly slipped the award under his coat, intending to take it back to the KIIS FM studio and hold it hostage.
‘He wanted to do a whole thing on air the next day about returning it,’ Jackie, 48, revealed, but the prank was quickly brought to an end when Julia went on the hunt.
The French-born RocKwiz host shut the music down in the middle of the afterparty and demanded the thief return the Silver Logie immediately.

‘If anyone has that Logie, a Silver Logie, can you please bring it over to me in the corner. No questions asked. It’s just a dog act,’ she said.
‘So, if you’d like to bring back that Silver Logie for someone who wasn’t even here tonight because she was working, I’d really appreciate it.’
At this point, fellow KIIS FM staffer Joshua Fox whipped out his phone to film Zemiro as she made the announcement – a faux pas as pictures and video aren’t allowed to be taken at the Logies afterparty.

‘Talk about making yourself a target… She clocks it and goes, “Why are you even filming this announcement?”‘ Jackie said.
‘And everyone looks at Josh and all eyes are on us three and I’m thinking Intern Pete has got to be prime suspect number one.
‘I said, “Return it now. I don’t care how you return it. Just return it. I’m leaving now.” And I went outside.’
Deppler went on to say he left the Logie by the toilets for someone to find before admitting he has ‘no idea’ if Julia found the award and gave it to Flanagan.
