“My sex statue is famous”: Larry Emdur reacts to X-rated home reveal
The Morning Show host Larry Emdur has been making a name for himself in the world of game show TV for a few years hosting The Chase Australia, but despite his success, he’s still had his sights set on one more goal: making an appearance on the Have You Been Paying Attention? series.
And now, it seems like Larry’s dream has come true, though not exactly in the way he might have expected.
The popular host and his wife, Sylvie, have had their hands full recently trying to sell their Kangaroo Valley retreat, better known as Sky Ridge.
And while pictures of the property and its picturesque surrounds are available thanks to Belle Property, it wasn’t the property’s luxury four bedrooms or sweeping views that saw it get a mention on the Channel 10 game show.
Instead, it was a statue situated in the home’s main living space that caught their attention, with Have You Been Paying Attention? host Tom Gleisner asking his panel if they knew why Larry’s holiday home had gone viral throughout the week.
Ed Kavalee was quick to suggest that it was because “the price was right”, while Sam Pang asked if it was because “it has to do with the backyard, they found a shallow grave?”
Kavalee eventually got to the right answer, revealing that “there was, like, a pornographic statue in there.”
The statue in question could be found perched on top of Larry’s dining room table, and appeared to catch two people caught up in the moment having “X-rated raunchy sex”, as Larry himself put it.
The HYBPA? audience found it hilarious, and thankfully, Larry was more than happy to see the funny side of it all, too.
Taking to social media after learning about his unexpected cameo, Larry shared that he’d “always wanted to be on Have You Been Paying Attention? but not for a disgraceful reason like this.”
“My sex statue is famous,” he added, before sharing details of the property and that “YES !!!! The Price is Right”.
Larry’s fans raced to express their amusement, with dozens sharing laughing emojis, while others assured him that the feature piece was certainly “a work of art”.
“Love a good conversation piece,” one user said.
“It’s…… unique,” another added.
“Can’t stand that show,” one confessed. “But at least this time they are talking about something interesting”.
And one other agreed that it had been “so funny”, noting that it was also a “nice house”, but that most importantly, they were sorry you weren't nominated for a gold logie, you sure deserved it”.
