Jackie O's Biography

Jackie O is the leading lady of Australia’s airwaves. A household name, Jackie is an award-winning radio and television host who is famous for her style both on-air, and off.
Jackie’s career in radio began in 1993 when she joined Triple M as their ‘phone girl’. It didn’t take long for bosses to recognise her talent and she was soon invited to co-host the Hot 30 Countdown. Broadcasting across Australia every week night, the show was a huge success and after six years, she moved with Kyle Sandilands to present the Drive show on Sydney’s No.1 hit music station, 2Day FM.
Having built an army of loyal and fun-loving listeners, Kyle and Jackie took over the reigns on the flagship 2Day FM breakfast show in early 2005. Since then, the show has become the unrivalled destination for music, A-list guests, celebrity gossip, games and once-in-a-lifetime prizes.
In addition to her prestigious radio work, Jackie enjoys a successful career in television, having been a judge in three series of Network Seven’s docu-soap, ‘Popstars’. Other television projects undertaken include The Morning Shift and Undercover Angels. In spring 2005, Jackie hosted the successful debut series of Australian Princess.
In 2008 Kyle & Jackie will also co host the hit reality show Big Brother.
