Jackie 'O' Henderson has revealed a secret career as an actor - even if only for one role.
The radio queen, 50, was speaking about her upcoming turn as the narrator on Seven dating series Stranded On Honeymoon Island when her secret acting past was revealed.
'I'd like to think I'm a pioneer in the voiceover world,' Jackie boasted before co-star Kyle Sandilands asked, 'Can you do any cartoony voices?'
Jackie then revealed that she made her acting debut back in 2005, playing Robin Williams ' love interest.
'I was in a cartoon, an animated film - Robots - with Robin Williams, Jackie said.
She added the caveat that she only appeared in the Australian version of the film.
'Only the Australian version,' Jackie clarified.
'Only Australians saw it. Katie Couric got the top job in America.'
Jackie however was mistaken, with actress Natasha Lyonne voicing the character, who was Robin Williams' love interest in the US version of the 2005 animated film.
Popular UK presenter Cat Deeley voiced the character for the UK version.
'I had to be this sexy character that Robin Williams had a thing for. I was a sexy robot.'
Asked to reprise her role on air, Jackie then played audio of her auspicious big-screen debut, which did not impress her co-stars.
'Hi, I'm Loretta Geargrinder,' Jackie said in the clip in her best American accent.
'Anyone dressed as badly as you are must be an eccentric billionaire.'
'I wouldn't be putting that on the CV,' Kyle said, which prompted Jackie to ask if he was jealous.
'An Australian only? No, I'm happy for you,' he said.
'It didn't sound like you because it sounded like a fat lady. There's no jealously. I always enjoy what you do.'
Newsreader Brooklyn Ross was also unimpressed by Jackie's acting debut.
'Why bother getting you to be in the movie when you don't sound like you know one even knew it was you who watched the movie,' he said.
'What's the point of it?'
It comes after Jackie O recently hit back after the $5million construction of her 'dream home' inspired fury among her neighbours.
The radio queen insisted she was shocked that a neighbour had called her 'disgusting' in a recent interview on the renovations.
'The funny thing is that every neighbour has gone out of their way to say how great my builders are and how thoughtful and considerate they are,' Jackie said on the Kyle & Jackie O Show.
When asked by a producer if she felt bad about the worksite caravans she had parked in the street, Jackie was apologetic.
'It's really unfortunate and I hate that I would ever be putting people out,' she added.
Addressing recent comments from an angry Neighbour, Jackie said to her co-host Kyle Sandilands: 'She did say that we are disgusting, you and I'.
'You can't blame people for thinking we're disgusting,' Kyle joked.
Jackie has taken on the ambitious project that will see a complete transformation of an oceanfront Clovelly house she purchased at open auction in March 2023.
It is located in one of Sydney's most sought-after suburbs.
Two years after the KIIS FM star dropped $13.25million on the eastern suburbs pad, residents close to the building site are complaining about noise and disruptions.
Residents claim that demolition work on the site, located on a small cul-de-sac overlooking Gordon's Bay, has created 'horrendous' noise, according to news.com.au.
One resident complained to the publication about vehicles owned by tradies working on Jackie's home blocking road access and disregarding designated parking areas.
'I don't want to have to go to them every time I want to get out of my driveway,' the disgruntled neighbour said.
