2011 ARIA Awards: List of Winners
On Sunday (November 27), the 2011 ARIA Awards were the place to be in Sydney, Australia. The annual event went down at Allphones Arena with a long line of stars working the red carpet press area before heading inside for the Land Down Under ceremony. Among the early arrivals this year were Kylie Minogue and sister Dannii, with Kylie being inducted into the Hall of Fame by PM Julia Gillard along with fellow HOF honoree The Wiggles. Upon taking the stage, Miss Minogue told the crowd that she felt "amazement I am still here ... Gratitude, humility, wonderment and pride." Meanwhile, celebrity presenters turning up for the 2011 ARIAs included the lovely Delta Goodrem in a tan and black Lisa Ho long dress, along with Benji and Joel Madden, Erin McNaught, Katie Noonan and Molly Meldrum. The show featured performances by acts such as Gurrumul, The Living End, Guy Sebastian, Art vs Science, Drapht and Cut Copy, with a total of thirty trophies being handed out to big winners such as Boy & Bear (who took home a pack leading 5 in categories including Best Album) and Gotye (who won Best Male, Best Pop Release and Best Single for his chart topping single Somebody That I Used to Know).
