On Thursday night, the opinionated and colourful  Studio 10  co-host Kerri-Anne Kennerley glistened on the red carpet for the opening of  Muriel’s Wedding: The Musical  in Sydney.

The veteran TV presenter decided to don a gold sequinned blouse for the big night  with tailored black trousers and pointed heels.

To accessorise the already bold look, the 65-year-old added a chunky black necklace and a sequinned Chanel handbag.

The media icon was not the only TV  journalist to lead the red carpet on Thursday evening with  Sunrisepresenter  Melissa Doyle also stepping out to watch the beloved movie-turned musical  Muriel’s Wedding  alongside her daughter, Natalia.

Keeping it classy, the breakfast show host went for a simple black blouse and added some glamour with sleek nude heels and a maroon clutch.

Followed closely behind was  veteran Australian journalist,  7.30  host and author Leigh Sales, who recently made headlines for her grilling of Prime Minister Scott Morrison about  his thoughts on the controversial ex-rugby player Israel Folau and his fight against Rugby Australia.

However, on Thursday evening, Monday’s intense events could not been have further from the journalist’s mind as she stepped onto the red carpet with a bold, colourful ensemble paired with a pair of black heeled boots.

Also, in attendance was  Australian Idol  winner Casey Donovan who decided to rock an all-black look for the special night, which consisted of a black silk camisole, trousers, double-breasted blazer and  classy brogues.
