Jackie O responds to wild rumour following divorce and massive weight loss
Jackie O has responded to rumours that she will appear on The Bachelorette following her 18 kg weight loss and divorce.
Speaking on The Kyle and Jackie O show on Tuesday morning, the radio host was quick to shut down the rumours after her co-star Kyle Sandilands poked fun at her alleged new gig.
“Congratulations on your new TV gig,” Kyle cheekily remarked.
“That's all untrue Kyle. That's bulls**t. No, I'm not doing that,” Jackie O immediately quipped back.
“That's great, because I wouldn't have been happy about that,” Kyle replied, and then went on to say why Jackie O was too good for the show.
“I put you up on a pedestal. You are a great woman that has achieved amazing things in your life, [you] raised a great daughter... And you're an award-winning, wonderful friend,” he said.
On their Wednesday show, Jackie O shut down the rumours further by saying that no amount of money would have convinced her to go on the show.
She confirmed that the Channel 10 producers begged her to appear on the dating show, but has firmly said no, because she didn’t want to be around a “bunch of gronks”.
“It came through my manager and I said "absolutely not". No way would I ever do something like that. It is great for your entertainment, but what about me,' she said.
She also hinted that the producers were willing to pay her anything she wanted, hinting at a possible $300k salary, which is the same amount her friend, Sophie Monk, got paid.
“They asked how much would it cost. Nothing, I wouldn't do it. I would just not do it. Not the Bachelorette. They are just making TV in the end and you are just going to get gronks, get weirdos... I just don't think it is for me,” she justified.
This comes after Woman’s Day magazine alleged that Jackie had signed up to the franchise in hopes of finding the right one on Monday.
