Married At First Sight star Jessika Power has broken her silence on her controversial Logies appearance, taking to Instagram and speaking to WHO exclusively on the night.
WATCH JESSIKA SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON HER LOGIES APPEARANCE!
The 27-year-old made headlines after she and co-star Ines Basic gatecrashed the awards night, after not being invited to the event.
Speaking to WHO exclusively on the night about not being invited, she was asked if she was surprised about the snub.
“I definitely wasn’t NOT surprised that I was invited. Look, it’s Married At First Sight not take husband at first sight. I think channel 9 are trying to keep their integrity.”
However, Jessika was quick to push that she basically brought all the views to the show. “We brought in 6 million viewers a night. Dan and I did anyway. I’m not upset that I wasn’t invited.”
However, she pushed that she wasn’t protesting by gatecrashing. “We didn’t even know it was here at the casino,” she told us.
Speaking to her Instagram, Jess pushed a similar story.
“We came in at the end of the night when technically everyone should have been at their [after parties], it’s not like we came in at the start trying to cause a ruckus.”

The blonde bombshell rubbished claims she and Ines were rejected from The Star’s rooftop bar, Nineteen because she wasn’t on Nine’s guest list for their afterparty.
According to an insider, things got tense when their MAFS costar Martha Kalifatidis walked past the pair in the lobby.
“As soon as Martha [Kalifatidis] was near them, it all started to kick off,” revealed the insider. “They exchanged some tense words and Ines pretended to vomit on her.”
Speaking about the alleged confrontation, Jessika said: “I did actually say hello to [Martha]… but I wasn’t rude to her and there was a situation that happened.
“If I was to stay and try play mediator [between her and Ines], it would have been a bigger problem… there was a lot of people that watched the show looking.
“The last thing we needed to do was cause a big spectacle.”
Martha took to her YouTube channel to discuss what went down.
‘We were walking through the lobby of The Star Casino and we bumped into Jess and Ines. I was completely taken back… I thought everything was sweet,’ she revealed.
“I don’t give a f***, to be quite honest. It’s so childish. I’m really happy in my life and I’m so unphased by it…. What’s your problem?”
Martha added: “When we were leaving the afterparty, they were still there in the casino waiting to get cold spring rolls from that disgusting buffet.”
