Sydney Confidential

Gold Choicie - Celebrity Of The Year
IF Russell Crowe was worried about his public opinion rating after chucking a wobbly with that phone earlier this year, he can now relax.
A massive 16,000 people voted throughout the week, with Crowe smashing the pool of homegrown celebrities to take out the Gold Choicie for Celebrity of the Year in the annual Sydney Confidential Choicie Awards.
Taking 31.1 per cent of the vote, Crowe nudged out the entire Sydney Swans team who despite their history-making Grand Final win this year, managed 19 per cent of votes, followed by Nic's new fella Keith Urban who came in with 11 per cent.
