Jackie ‘O’ Henderson reveals her secret feud with Lindsay Lohan after starring on The Masked Singer Australia together

Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has ended her private feud with American actress Lindsay Lohan.

The Australian radio presenter, 48, starred alongside Lohan, 37, on the judging panel of The Masked Singer Australia in 2019, forming a close friendship during their time together on set.

However, according to Henderson, the women got into a brief argument after the show ended after she failed to defend Lohan against contestant Wendell Sailor’s “diva behavior” allegations.

“Lindsay and I, there were times when it was tough,” she told her co-host of The Kyle And Jackie O Show on Tuesday.

‘Rough? I thought you two got along well?’ asked her co-host Kyle Sandilands, to which she replied, “We actually did… and then Wendell Sailor came on the show.”

Sailor, who was exposed on the show, made headlines in October 2019 after claiming that Lohan was difficult to work with, during an interview with The Kyle And Jackie O Show.

For Wendell’s final appearance as the Rhino, Lindsay apparently held back production by taking an unexpected hour-long break.

Henderson did not defend Lohan when he made the on-air remarks.

“Anytime someone said something about her that could be negative, I defended her. I had her back,” Jackie said.

“Wendell came on the show because he was one of the people under a mask. Lindsay was back home [by this point]. Wendell said a comment alluding to Lindsay holding up production, but it was very awkward and then he moved on.”

‘I didn’t come to her aid; I didn’t want to stop the interview. She heard that, and she really felt like I should have said something. So things got a little awkward between us. We are doing well; it was just for that little rocky period.”

Lohan did not return to The Masked Singer Australia when it was renewed for 2020 as she was unable to fly to Australia due to Covid travel restrictions.

Oddly enough, The Parent Trap star unfollowed fellow judges Henderson, Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes and Danni Minogue after confirming she had left the show.

She was replaced by Australian comedian Urzila Carlson. Henderson returned to the franchise for its second season before leaving the show prior to its third installment.

During Sailor’s controversial interview about Lohan, the retired star claimed that the Mean Girls shut down production shortly before he was due to perform because she was “hungry.”

“About a minute before I was due to perform, [producers] said, “Lindsay’s hungry, she’s going to take a break.” It was like an hour break! We were there for a while,’ he complained.

Henderson had replied with a laugh, “Yes! Long hours!’

Sailor claimed he had to wait in his dressing room during Lohan’s break because he wasn’t allowed to talk to anyone on set.

‘I was there from 11 o’clock and my last performance at the end there, when I got the boat, that was around 10 o’clock in the evening!’ he said.

It wasn’t the first time Lindsay’s co-stars have complained about her off-screen behavior in The Masked Singer Australia.

In July 2019, fellow judge Dave ‘Hughsey’ Hughes alleged that the actress’s cigarette breaks disrupted production.

Recalling an early workshop for the show, he said on his Hughesy & Kate radio show, “There was a discussion, ‘Let’s start [because] we don’t know how long Lindsay will last.”

“We thought she might not come back!”
