However in a bid to keep the event as COVID-safe as possible, two ceremonies will be held - a film ceremony and a TV/online ceremony.

The 2020 AACTA Awards presented by Foxtel will be hosted by Rove McManus, Susie Youssef and Tom Gleeson.

Names like Bella Heathcote, Rove McManus and Rob Collins have led the bevy of A-list stars turning heads on the red carpet at the The Star in Sydney.

George MacKay, Sam Neill, Richard Roxburgh, Toby Wallace and Hugo Weaving will battle it out in the Best Lead Actor category, while Tilda Cobham-Hervey, Laura Gordon, Elisabeth Moss, Lupita Nyong'o and Eliza Scanlen are up for the Best Lead Actress gong.

On the small screen, The Amazing Race Australia, Australian Survivor: All Stars, The Block, I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, Masterchef Australia and The Real Dirty Dancing have been nominated for Best Reality Series.

HOW TO GET MELISSA LEONG'S VERSACE 90s GLAM LOCKS

The MasterChef's stylist, Liz Tieu,  shares her step-by-step guide!

1. First, I spray a generous amount of HASK Keratin Protein 5-in-1 Leave-In Spray to smooth out the hair and protect the hair when we blow dry Melissa’s hair.

2. Then section hair into 4 parts: back, 2 sides, and top.

3. At the back, I blow dry to smooth the hair out but then use the HASK BIOTIN Dry Shampoo on the roots of the hair for a natural lift and hold.

4. Finish the look with the HASK Monoi Coconut Oil for the ultimate high shine look.

5. On the side of the hair, I blow dry the hair back using a wide tooth comb for that Versace's vibe and use clip that won’t leave marks on the hair and then let the hair cool down in the direction you want.

6. On the top, I spray a lot more HASK BIOTIN Dry Shampoo, but this time I massage it into the hair and scalp and then wait a few seconds until the Dry Shampoo settles before adding more! Always remember to shake the Dry Shampoo well before using it to avoid that white powder cast.

Gorgeous!

7. I then join hair on top, part to the side and back, making it seamless with a bit of height (which is what we definitely wanted for this look.

8. Finally, I secure the whole look with Fudge Membrane Gas and apply cool heat from a Dyson hair Dryer to set the look.
