If you're a 2DayFM listener you're probably aware by now of Kyle's "fat challenge". But if you're not, the self-admittedly rotund co-host of the Kyle and Jackie O show has accused the ever-gorgeous Jackie of being fat! (Yes, it's a topsy turvy world we live in).
It seems that Kyle is so concerned about Jackie's health and belt size that he's issued his vegetarian co-host a challenge: lose 4 Kg and he'll donate $5,000 to her favourite charity: Animals Australia! And if she fails...? Kyle says he'll give the $5,000 to a pig factory farm -- Jackie's worst nightmare!
Now, I don't know where this mic-slinging diva will even find 4 Kg to lose... but if anyone can do it for the pigs, I'm willing to bet that Jackie O can.
The outspoken radio personality and former Big Brother host has already shown her commitment to helping animals by not eating them. She also posted information on her website to inform listeners about the miserable lives of animals trapped in factory farms in Australia. Go Jackie!
Who do you think will win the fat challenge? You can have your say and pass on your encouragement to Jackie on the 2day fm website. :-)

i don't know if she can.... unless she goes into the negatives. but good generally defeats evil... so i'll bet that Jackie somehow does it. Maybe she water-loaded before she weighed herself? i hope so anyway
pretty funny challenge though - i get their podcasts.
i remember when they went to LA and drove around in a black SUV.. Jackie pretended to be Britney Spears while Kyle was the bodyguard... with a REALLY bad american accent. The paparazzi followed them around and even the police gave them an escort! when the paps learnt that it was a joke they were so ANGRY! kyle and jacki had to run away... it was so funny lol

I noticed the other day that Jackie O is the spokesmodel on one of those 'Brand Power' type ads advertising some breakfast (dairy) milk drink. Not that I am wishing to knock her for being vegetarian rather than vegan (hey, any boycott of animal products is great!) but it seems strange to me to be publicly sticking up for piggies but also essentially publicly endorsing an industry that allows cruelty to cows.

Listen to JJJ, the breakfast show with TWO vegans!

She was also deeply upset because she had just finished the commercial for the yoghurt product. Unfortunately, despite her disgust at the cruelty shown by the dairy industry she was not able to ask for the commercials to be pulled as she was bound by contract.
We have no doubt that Jackie will never promote dairy again.
Animals Australia (and the animals) are very fortunate to have such a high profile and supportive celebrity as Jackie speaking up for them. Jackie is able to reach a million listeners every week with a message of kindness to animals. Fortunately, now that she is aware of the problems with the dairy industry this is yet another issue she can highlight to her listeners.

As for the fat challenge: at first I was disgusted because, like Kat, I thought it mocked animal cruelty and sent out the wrong message about body image. But now when I think about at least it's getting some info out there about factory farming pigs. Maybe some listeners will look up the issue and boycott pork products, or go veg!

So I know sometimes aren't black and white like they are the paper. But personally I want nothing to do with any of these jerks.

And as for the distorted message about body image!
Kat seems like the only switched-on person on this thread.
