Nude dating will continue on KIIS FM’s Kyle & Jackie O Show, with Kyle Sandilands claiming he has ignored management requests to dump the naked hook-up segment.
Naked Dating is exactly what it sounds like, two listeners strip off and meet, starkers, in the Kyle & Jackie O studio.
Sandilands defended the segment earlier this month after what he said were complaints from listeners.
“They tried to stop it two weeks ago, the management, because 12 people complained online saying it was too rude,” Sandilands told his audience on June 14.
“And I told the management to write back to all those people telling them to beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppppppppppp and listen to another radio station where the losers are.
“If we want to get nude, if someone wants to get f*****ed, I am all for it.
“Make no mistake, the listeners don’t run this station. The tail don’t wag the dog.”
KIIS dodged questions about whether or not complaints had been made about the risque segment and if management had asked for the segment to be shelved.
“Kyle & Jackie O’s Naked Dating is a long-running, playful and daring segment that attracts brave souls eager for love,” KIIS said in a statement.
“Kyle & Jackie O listeners love the thrill. It’s all in good fun, and it’s clear our participants enjoy every moment.
“Social media is a platform that gives everyone a voice, and we value the feedback from our listeners.
“It allows us to see that many love the adventurous spirit of Naked Dating, and we also appreciate hearing from those who aren’t as keen on that one segment amongst many others on the show.”
