Kyle Sandilands took to the airwaves to defend Guy Sebastian after the singer took to Instagram to say he’d never tell anyone to get jabbed.
Sebastian has had a pretty bad week, everyone from Ben Lee to Ray Hadley has criticised The Voice judge, after he apologised on Instagram for endorsing Live’s, “#VaxTheNation” campaign.
Sebastian, said: “I would never ever tell people what to do when it comes to their personal health choices.”
After the post, Sebastian, who seemed to be trying to stop any backlash coming his way for supporting Live, was then met with an onslaught of criticism, with accusations he was an anti-vaxxer.
"And now, from the man who brought you hits such as "Angels Brought Me Here" and "That elevator one y'know the one where he's singing about the elevator", presenting Guy Sebastian's new song; "Oh sorry oh dear oh no its okay bbys don't get vaxxed hey I'm sorry oh gosh oh dear""

However, not everyone is mad at Sebastian. Sandilands defended him on The Kyle and Jackie O Show.
According to news.com.au, Sandilands said: “It’s too much, the annoying thing about the whole Guy Sebastian fiasco is that he’s started getting accused of being anti-vax and pining to the masses, but he wasn’t doing that.
“He’s vaccinated, he believes in vaccination, he wants to get back to work.
“He felt it (the original post) may have been too preachy, because he knows people who have suffered cancer, cancer survivors, people are stuck between a rock and a hard place, and he knows them. He just didn’t explain it clearly enough.
“Look at the people that had a whinge, people no one even cares about, Ben Lee. Who could care less about what Ben Lee thinks?
“You did one song 15 years ago, asshole, so pull your furry head in and stop bitching about someone else who does remarkably well.”
Sebastian has yet to respond to the support.
