Luke counts on luck for personality contest
Game show presenter Luke Bird hopes his colourful style will give him an edge at this year’s television awards.
He’s one of three Māori nominated for the people’s choice TV Personality of the Year award, alongside TVNZ breakfast host Jenny-May Clarkson and Bouncers lead Joe Daymond.
He’s proud of his work on Whakaata Māori’s Lucky Dip on the Road.
“I’m a finalist and it is for all those people out there, all those kids, all the Rainbow Kids all the Māori and Pacifica kids who want to see themselves up there. This is for them,” he says.
Voting closes on November 20, with the awards ceremony on December 5.
