Kyle Sandilands makes bombshell statement about Aussie TV's golden boy: 'I hate him'

Kyle Sandilands has potentially started another war of words - this time with a golden boy of Australian television. The shock jock, 53, was chatting to his Zombie Plane co-star Sophie Monk, who was filling in for his KIIS FM co-star Jackie 'O' Henderson on Wednesday morning. The pair were discussing levels of hate that celebrities are forced to endure online. 'There is no one that doesn't get hate. Pick three people that wouldn't have hate. I've got three - Beyoncé, Ronald McDonald and Jesus,' Kyle said. 'Wrong! They all have hate sites dedicated to them.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Sophie then suggested that affable I'm A Celebrity host Robert Irwin would be one famous Aussie face that does not engender ill will. Kyle vehemently disagreed with the Love Island host's assessment, admitting: 'Oh no, hate him. I just can't stand him.' The radio host's opinion might be at odds with many Australians. However, Kyle quickly followed with a caveat before expanding on why the wildlife warrior rubs him the wrong way. 'In real life, I actually like him. But it's the whole "G'day" ... It's the juvenile presentation style,' he said. Kyle did find some positive words for Robert, referencing his recent internet-breaking turn to modelling Bonds underwear. 'He's got a rock hard body on him though,' Kyle said before admitting Robert's racy ad campaign resonated strongly with many staff members at KIIS FM. 'The gays here were all gathered around the laminating machine, laminating their posters so they could take it home and put it in the shower,' Kyle claimed. Newsreader Brooklyn Ross disagreed, saying that while attractive, Robert did not have that certain 'je ne sais quoi'. 'I don't find him ... he's obviously attractive but I'm not, like, turned on by Robert Irwin,' Brooklyn admitted. Sophie added that she thought Robert would make perfect son-in-law material. 'If I had a daughter, I'd want her to marry Robert Irwin,' she revealed. Kyle did concede he could see why he would be an attractive addition to any family with: 'I get that, because he's a sweetie pie.' It's not the first time that Kyle has fired verbal salvos toward fellow Aussie celebs. He has been famously embroiled in many wars of words throughout the years, including much publicised stouches with comedian Dave Hughes, TV and radio star Rove McManus, and Today Extra host David Campbell. Back in 2017, Kyle issued an explosive tirade against David, reigniting an already existing feud. He told News Corp the Today Extra host was 'dog' and a 'peasant' before adding: 'That c**k breath, I can't stand him.' The animosity began in 2011 after the musician publicly slammed Kyle when the radio star controversially called a female journalist a 'fat slag', with Kyle saying, 'As soon as he had a chance to have a little whinge during one of my many f**k-ups of life, he was one of the ones to first sink the boot in as many people did.' More recently, Kyle took a not-so-subtle swipe at former housemate and current radio rival Jase Hawkins. Kyle said Jase, who was once known professionally as Labby, got his first paycheck because of him and was treated like a 'slave' early on in his career. 'Jase Hawkins, who we used to call Labby, but he wanted his own name up in lights... He was a great little b***h around here, a little sidekick b***h,' Kyle said. 'And I met him when he was 16 in Brisbane, he's not even from Melbourne.' Kyle then went on to note Jase's various gigs in radio following their time together, saying he was a fame w***e. 'Then he wanted to be the big fame w***e himself and he went up to Brisbane, failed. Then went to Melbourne, worked for KIIS, failed,' Kyle said.

Kyle Sandilands reveals mortifying first day on set of his new Hollywood film: 'I was humiliated'

Kyle Sandilands ' big screen career has gotten off to quite the shaky start. The KIIS FM star, 53, jetted off to the Gold Coast to shoot scenes for his Hollywood debut in the campy action flick Zombie Plane. Kyle revealed on Tuesday that his first foray in front of the camera appeared doomed before he even got off the plane. He explained that he was 'humiliated' by Aussie actor Stephen Curry about his date of birth after calling it out on air. 'I was humiliated yesterday. You might remember me mentioning Stephen Curry's birthday. Stephen Curry is the actor from The Castle.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Kyle went on to explain that Stephen was on the same flight to the Gold Coast on Monday night. 'I look over and there's Stephen Curry sitting opposite me. I said, "happy birthday, mate", and he said "hey?" I said, "isn't it your birthday?" and he said "No".' Adding that Stephen was not forthcoming with his actual date of birth, Kyle added that he then chastised producer Bruno Boucher for giving him false information. Bruno however defended himself saying all sources pointed to the actor's birthday being May 26. Kyle, who will play a billionaire yacht owner in the film, then went off to costuming where he embarrassed himself in front of the actor again, as well as production staff. 'I've walked in and there's Stephen Curry looking like an anorexic Mr Magoo and I said, "it is your birthday", and he went, "it's not I don't know what to tell you", and then everyone looked at me.' Kyle's set troubles didn't end there, with the radio star admitting he wasn't the biggest fan of his on screen attire. 'I said, "okay what am I wearing",' Kyle said. '[They said] we've been on the boat with the real guy and the captain wears the same clothes as the other guys.' This did not sit well with Kyle who said he felt like a particular reality TV show character. 'All of a sudden I'm Captain Sandy from Below Deck looking like every other b***ard,' he said. 'Bruno knew I was distressed. I'm not coming up here to play an employee.' Bruno and newsreader Brooklyn Ross tried to soothe Kyle's ego saying the costume may be for comedic effect. 'So I've been brought in to be laughed at?' Kyle replied. 'Maybe I should just come home. I feel this whole thing is a disaster.' The KIIS FM star revealed on his The Kyle & Jackie O show on Monday morning that he is making his movie debut alongside Chuck Norris for the actor's final-ever film. Kyle also admitted that he was quite chuffed to be starring alongside his childhood hero and action veteran Chuck. 'Didn't you use to watch Chuck Norris growing up and want to be him?' Jackie 'O' Henderson asked her co-star, to which he replied 'Oh, 100 per cent yes.' He then went on to explain the action packed plot of the upcoming flick. 'Prepare yourself. Zombie Plane. That's right. Zombie Plane,' Kyle said, revealing the film's title. 'Sydney to LA, a flight is taken over by zombies and an eclectic group of high-profile passengers led by celebrities turned secret agents must band together to fight to save humanity. Have you ever heard of a better plot ever?' Jackie agreed, saying the film had 'Oscars written all over it'. 'I'm actually picking out my Oscars outfit now,' Kyle said in anticipation of his soon-to-be superstardom. 'Who's doing the soundtrack? Flo Rida. Hello. Everything's lined up for success here. I love it. We'll be going to Cannes, probably. We'll be going to all the film festivals.' He added: 'Move over, Leo. You've had your turn. It's Sandilands' turn.' Zombie Plane tells the story of high-profile celebrities fighting Zombies on a flight from Sydney to Los Angeles. It stars Chuck Norris, Vanilla Ice, Ice T, Sir Bob Geldof, Brian Austin Green and Sophie Monk as fictitious versions of themselves. Australian stars Natalie Bassingwaithe, Cody Simpson, Matt Okine, Dan Ewing and Amy Shark are also set to appear in the film.

Kyle & Jackie O star attacked with a hose in heated exchange after confronting the show's 'biggest hater': 'She's threatening me!'

A staff member from The Kyle & Jackie O show has been threatened by an angry listener after he tried to repossess a television gifted by Kyle Sandilands. Disgruntled listener Grace turned a garden hose on KIIS FM Thunderbird street team member Party Marty this week. The drama unfurled on Thursday when Jackie recounted Grace's less than impressed reaction to hearing the show. 'Basically we had this guy say that in his backyard with the tradies working, they love blasting the show,' she explained. 'But his next door neighbour Grace was always yelling over the fence: "I hate that show turn it off."' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Jackie went on to recall how the radio duo spoke to Grace to try and change her opinion of the popular Sydney breakfast show. To help smooth things over Kyle also gifted Grace a 60-inch television. 'Then we spoke to Grace and we loved her. She was hilarious and then she kind of came around and liked us,' Jackie added. Upon learning that Grace had since ditched the show, despite receiving the television, co-star Cooper Johns called her to try and get to the that root of her anger. Grace gave no quarter to Cooper, telling him: 'I'm sorry I've told your producers to stop calling me, I'm sick of it,' before unceremoniously hanging up the phone. Unperturbed, Cooper tried a second time only to be met with: 'How many times have I got to tell you not to contact me anymore I had enough.' He had better luck on a third attempt, with Grace explaining her distaste of the show. 'I decided that I was going to listen and I spoke to that Kyle and when he said he was suffering from a brain aneurysm I felt sorry for him. Then he offered me a TV, so I decided I was going to listen to the program and I did,' she said. 'I mustn't sound ungrateful I accepted the TV, but you know what I really cant stand it [the show].' She added she was particularly annoyed with Kyle 'talking over' guests and his penchant for talking about American politics. She also took umbrage with his judging role on Australian Idol, saying: 'He's judging on that show but in order to judge talent you have to have talent to recognise it. He can't sing.' Kyle then cut to Party Marty who was parked in a KIIS FM Thunderbird across the road from Grace's house. 'We've got Party Marty in her driveway from the KIIS FM Thunderbird to reclaim the TV,' Kyle explained. 'I'm going to ask her If you're no fan of ours and you're s*** canning us how about handing back the TV it's only right.' The plan was soon scuttled however, when Party Marty approached the front door. Upon identifying himself, a clearly angry Grace could be heard shouting: 'I don't want to be harassed.' The radio duo then instructed Marty to leave, with Kyle saying: 'You don't want the hose put on you. You don't want to upset the woman.' The scene escalated when Marty revealed that Grace was threatening him and turned the garden hose on him. Grace's reaction was met with approval from Jackie, who declared: 'It's great, isn't it? Solves so many problems, hosing someone.' Cooper added that Grace was good radio 'talent'. 'She's an excellent character,' he said.

Radio star Jackie O Henderson makes shock sex confession live on air

Jackie O Henderson made a shock confession on Tuesday morning. The radio star revealed on KIIS FM's The Kyle and Jackie O Show she once had sex with a fan she met at a nightclub. 'I have [had a sex with a fan]. He was lovely,' Jackie, 50, admitted during an interview with OnlyFans star Annie Knight. Her co-host Kyle Sandilands then explained she had met the male at the club during a night out. '[During sex] he said to her "I can't believe I'm having sex with Kyle and Jackie",' Kyle added. Jackie hit back: 'He did not say you. You were not mentioned.' Jackie's confession comes after she tearfully broke down live on-air last week as she discussed her ongoing healing journey. The radio star was speaking to American self-help podcaster Gabby Bernstein about ways to improve your mindset when she made the tearful admission. 'I never felt good enough.... It takes a long time to do that. And then it all came up and it was like a bloody pressure cooker and everything came out. Sometimes I think we have core beliefs that we're not even aware of,' Jackie began. Gabby asked Jackie what it was she was insecure about and if she was looking to 'manifest' a romantic partner due to still being single at 50. Jackie responded with 'yep' and admitted her single status was something she felt insecure about, in addition to working hard to maintain her sobriety. 'I know it takes a long time to do that. You know, to heal. I feel like I've been working on it for two and a half years, constantly,' she said. Gabby told the veteran presenter that while the healing process was a 'lifetime journey', she could make a commitment to better living each and every day. Jackie previously shared her own personal story with addiction with listeners during The Kyle and Jackie O Show back in October. Fighting back tears, Jackie shared that she checked into rehab facility the Betty Ford Clinic in California in November 2022, when she took an extended break from The Kyle and Jackie O Show that she previously claimed was due to long Covid. Known for treating Hollywood stars including Keith Urban, Robert Downey Jr. and Lindsay Lohan, Betty Ford charges anywhere from $45,000 to $90,000 AUD for a month-long stay, depending on the program. Jackie revealed on-air that her long-time friend Gemma had been instrumental into getting her into rehab. She emotionally credited Gemma with saving her life by persuading her to check into the clinic. She recalled: 'It came to a head and [Gemma] was such a great friend. She said ''I'm sorry Jackie, but you're not going to taper off this, it will never work. I'm checking you into rehab at the end of the week... we're going''.' 'I said "don't be ridiculous, that is such overkill. I don't have a problem that bad that I need to go to Betty Ford".' 'And she said "no, we're going and we're doing it" and I thank God she did that,' Jackie admitted. 'Thank God there was someone out there like her. I believe she saved my life.' Jackie said they caught a night flight out of Australia and boarded at the 'last moment' to avoid being seen and then jetted over to LA, where Gemma stayed with her for two days before she checked into the clinic. She said Gemma accompanied her and helped her to get on the plane 'undetected' as she discussed keeping her addiction a secret for two 'long and painful years'. At the time, Kyle - who was unaware of Jackie's drug addiction - told their listeners Jackie was taking a break after contracting Covid. Instead, she was secretly flown out of Australia to be treated for 28 days at the world famous rehab facility for an addiction to painkillers, sleeping pills and alcohol. At the height of her addiction, Jackie took around 10-12 Stilnox/Zolpidem sleeping pills and 24 Panadeine Forte a day and would take them while drinking alcohol. Stilnox users are warned not to drink alcohol as it can slow the respiratory system and make it difficult to wake up. Jackie said Betty Ford told her not to change 'anything' about her usage before arriving as it could be 'dangerous' so she was still taking the pills the day she flew out to the US. She also said she went 'back and forth' deciding whether to share the news publicly before detailing the extent of her addiction in her memoir The Whole Truth.
