The King and Queen of Sydney breakfast radio are moving on and out to Mix 106.5 and their replacements have finally been revealed.
It’s official: taking over at Kyle and Jackie O’s 2Day FM slot are none other than… Jules Lund, Sophie Monk and Merrick Watts and Mel B. Yep, the Spice Girl.
The news was tweeted last night by entertainment writer Peter Ford, and Melissa Hoyer, the entertainment editor for news.com.au.
The official announcement from 2DayFM was planned for today, and they’ve posted it on their website, writing:
Come on down Jules Lund, MerrickWatts and Sophie Monk who will be joined daily with the outrageously talented and not-so-scary Mel B!
This show’s going to be a blast and you gotta be happy with that!
Jules Lund previously worked on the afternoon drive-home segment with Fifi Box, who will take over the Today Network’s breakfast show in Melbourne.
Sophie Monk joined the Today Network in September as a co-host for their weekend breakfast show with Dave Thornton. Mel B is the former Spice Girl who also had a stint as a judge on The X Factor.
Merrick Watt’s previously worked on the Triple M show, The Highway Patrol, with Julian Schiller and Rachel Corbett, however, it will not be returning in 2014.

Why do they need 4 people to host 1 show? If anything, it shows good K&J were (bias aside, even the haters would have to agree there!)
As long as Sophie Monk keeps confusing Lance Armstrong with Neil Armstrong, I'll keep listening. It's like an accident you just can't tear you gaze from.
