Kyle and Jackie O: ARN countersues former hosts over lost ad revenue and $3 million ‘thank you note’ signing bonus

The total value of the lost advertising revenue remains unclear, but it is expected to run into the millions.

ARN has launched a counterattack in its escalating legal battle with radio stars Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson, demanding millions in alleged losses.

The network is countersuing the duo, claiming they should repay lost advertising revenue after the show was pulled off air, as well as 87.9 per cent of their $3 million sign-on bonuses.

Sandilands criticised her “fixation” on astrology, saying it was affecting other parts of the show and claiming colleagues had raised concerns.

The discussion quickly turned personal, with Sandilands accusing Henderson of being “off with the fairies” and “almost unworkable,” while Henderson defended herself and said his comments were “unfair.”

The heated exchange ended with Henderson telling her co-host to “get somebody else” after what she described as a “total attack,” leaving her emotional as the show wrapped up.

KIIS FM terminated Henderson’s contract after she told executives she “cannot continue to work with Kyle Sandilands” following the on-air spat.

Sandilands’ $100 million contract was also terminated shortly after. He accused ARN of escalating the incident, claiming the network “decided to try and burn the place down” after the dispute.
