Kyle helps a homeless girl

This morning on 2DayFM's Kyle and Jackie O show, they helped a homeless girl who has lived on the streets since she was 10.

In a feel good piece, they listed items donated by Sydney businesses such as bedding, manchester, kitchen equipment and even a holiday to Phuket.

But in the emotional finale, Kyle announced that he would personally set her up in a rental property.

Watch it unfold...

well that has to be the cleanest homeless person I've ever seen. Clearly she fit the demo
Jason McLean (4:23pm 11 Jul 2012)
This looks staged and fake.....much like Kyle's supposed background of homelessness.
Steve (11:38pm 11 Jul 2012)
It seems the girl may not have gone as hungry as some homeless people might have in the same plight. Nor does her teeth seem to be decaying. But that doesn't speak of her struggle, or her potential.

As far as Kyle is concerned I will say something. I distinctly recall a very much out of work, no cash and only the shirt on his back Kyle Sandilands approaching me a number of years ago asking for a job, and I gave him one. The guy is talented. He never looked back, and I'm certain he has no intention of doing so. We are vessels, passages that people sometimes pass through in order to get to another destination. So, start giving.

Puleeease. . Don't get me worng its good content but is about as genuine as WWF. Looks good, people will eat it up but at the end of the day if this is the real deal i will throw the towel in on radio.

Done the same week as 2DAY and ACMA battled it out over content direction eh?? Seriously radio once gave a shit about the IQ of listeners.

The only person this stunt helped is Kyle Sandilands. It made him look (slightly) less of a tool. Congratulations to 2DAY's marketing department for cooking this stunt up; I'm sure your usual demographic (females 18-65*) will lap this up.
